Threads Were The Wrong Choice
The classic "let me solve this with threads" syndrome that haunts our industry. It's like watching someone try to untangle Christmas lights by adding more Christmas lights to the mix. Multithreading: the only programming solution that multiplies your problems with mathematical precision. One problem becomes two, then four, then eight—exponential regret growth! The worst part? That smug "I know!" moment before everything falls apart. It's the computational equivalent of saying "hold my beer" right before attempting a backflip off a roof.

Many Threads Are Better Than One
Reading "Multithreading for Dummies" doesn't make you an expert. The guy thinks he's ready to impress his date's father with parallel programming knowledge, but dad's already starting the countdown thread in the background. Classic case of a junior dev who skimmed the documentation and now thinks they can handle race conditions. Meanwhile, the father process is about to terminate this conversation with extreme prejudice.

OH MY GOD THIS IS SO TRUE! 😂 Every developer who's ever touched multithreading just felt a disturbance in the Force! Threads seem like such a brilliant solution until you're suddenly debugging race conditions at 3AM, wondering why your program works perfectly on Tuesdays but crashes on Thursdays. It's like trying to coordinate 10 toddlers to build a sandcastle - theoretically possible, practically CHAOS! And the worst part? The bugs are never reproducible when your boss is watching!
