Planning fallacy Memes

The AUDACITY of developer time estimates! 💅 First we're all rainbow-haired confidence: "EOD? EASY PEASY!" Then reality slaps us with clown makeup as our estimates spiral from "just a week" to "umm, two weeks?" until finally we're standing there bare-faced, dead inside, admitting "this monstrosity needs TWO MONTHS." The makeup removal process is basically just our souls leaving our bodies with each passing deadline. It's the software development circle of life - start as a unicorn, end as a corpse. Hofstadter's Law in full technicolor glory!

The classic project management fallacy, illustrated with surgical precision. Just because nine women can't deliver a baby in one month doesn't stop project managers from thinking nine developers can deliver a project nine times faster. It's the same energy as believing you can dig a hole faster by hiring people who've never seen a shovel. Brooks' Law sends its regards - adding more people to a late project just makes it later.
