The User Will Know How To Use It
BEHOLD! The eternal lie every developer tells themselves when skipping proper documentation! "Don't worry, it's super intuitive, the user will know how to use it" they proclaim with unfounded confidence, while the poor user (represented by that absolutely CONFUSED dog) tries to figure out how to enter a doghouse THROUGH THE ROOF instead of the gaping entrance! This is the EXACT SAME ENERGY as releasing software with zero tutorials and then wondering why users are filing 47,000 support tickets! The audacity! The delusion! The sheer hubris of thinking your UI is "intuitive" when users can't even find the login button! I'm having flashbacks to every product meeting where someone said "it's self-explanatory" and I nearly threw my laptop out the window!

Developers Make It Simple, Users Make It Weird
You know that feeling when you spend weeks crafting the "perfect" UI with three neatly separated components, only for users to completely break your design philosophy by sprawling across it like they own the place? That's frontend development in a nutshell. We build elegant cat food bowls, and users turn them into bizarre cat beds. No matter how many hours you spend on your wireframes, users will find the most chaotic way possible to interact with your creation. And then management wonders why the sprint's running behind. "Just make it more intuitive," they say. Sure, let me just predict how three different species of cat will decide to sleep on it first.

Letting The Vibes Be Your Guide
Who needs user feedback when you've got noise-canceling headphones and pure intuition? Nothing says "I know exactly what businesses want" like building an entire B2B SaaS product in complete isolation from the people who'll actually use it. Just vibe with your keyboard, manifest those features, and ignore that pesky "market research" nonsense. The product team's gonna be thrilled when they discover you've built the perfect solution to problems that don't exist. Pro tip: For extra efficiency, don't even talk to your colleagues either. Pure genius flows best in an echo chamber of one.
