Rust Is Named After A Fungus And Python Is Named After A Comedy Group

MY ENTIRE PROGRAMMING LIFE HAS BEEN A LIE! 😱 Here I am thinking Rust is named after that horrifying orange corrosion that eats metal alive, with its edgy "memory safety" branding, but NOOOO—it's named after some obscure fungus?! And Python?! I spent YEARS believing it was named after those terrifying reptiles that squeeze the life out of their prey (just like Python code squeezes the life out of my CPU), but it's actually named after Monty Python?! The comedy group?! What's next? Is JavaScript actually named after someone's pet goldfish named "Java" who liked to follow "scripts" of swimming patterns?! I CAN'T EVEN TRUST PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE NAMES ANYMORE! 💀

Not Actually Structless

THE AUDACITY! Someone has the NERVE to mock DOOM's source code for having "no structs, no classes" only to get absolutely DESTROYED when they actually look inside and find—GASP—structs everywhere! 😱 The betrayal! The drama! It's like bragging about how your vegan friend eats no meat and then finding their freezer PACKED with bacon. The shocked cat face is literally all of us when our smug programming hot takes get obliterated by actual facts. Moral of the story: maybe CHECK the legendary code before trashing it, you absolute AMATEUR! 💅
