The Documentation Rejection Saga
The eternal struggle between documentation and developers. Rey desperately offers "the docs" while Luke Skywalker, representing the average developer, stands on his cliff dramatically gesturing "no thanks." Because why read instructions when you can spend 6 hours implementing a solution that already exists in paragraph 2 of the README?

Usually Come Crawling Back Though
Look at me ignoring that README file like it's my ex's text messages. We've all been there—excitedly diving into a shiny new library, completely bypassing the documentation because "how hard could it be?" Then two hours later, after fighting bizarre errors and contemplating a career change to goat farming, we're crawling back to that README with our tail between our legs. The documentation was there the whole time, patiently waiting for us to admit we're not as clever as we thought. It's the programming circle of life.

Average Open Source Contribution
The grand three-act play of open source glory: Act I: Proudly announce to the world you're a contributor to a prestigious AI project. Act II: Reveal your "critical contribution" was changing messages = messages to messages = encoding in a single line of code. Act III: Transform this heroic one-line fix into a LinkedIn epic where you "led critical efforts" alongside "elite engineers." The resume inflation algorithm is the real AI breakthrough here.

Following Vulkan Tutorial
The classic GitHub commit message that says it all. When diving into Vulkan (that notoriously complex graphics API that makes OpenGL look like a children's toy), this dev's only documentation is a README file warning potential recruiters about the horror show inside. It's the programming equivalent of those "Abandon All Hope" signs at the entrance to Hell. The best part? They committed it just 3 minutes ago - probably right after realizing their code is an unholy abomination that would make even seasoned graphics programmers weep.

The evolution of README files is getting out of hand! Starting with the basic README.md for normies, then leveling up to README.txt for the slightly cooler devs. But wait—README.pdf?! That's for those documentation wizards who want their formatting PERFECT. And README.mp4? That's galaxy-brain territory for devs who explain their code with ACTUAL VIDEOS! But the final form—Morse code on a telegraph machine—that's for the absolute legends who communicate in ways even Git can't track! Your commit messages may be bad, but at least you're not sending them via telegraph... yet! 😂

Update Read Me
Ah, the classic "green squares at any cost" syndrome. Nothing says "I'm a serious developer" like obsessively committing README formatting changes 30 times an hour just to make your GitHub contribution graph look like a lush rainforest. What you're witnessing is the digital equivalent of a peacock's mating dance - except instead of attracting mates, you're desperately trying to impress potential employers who might glance at your profile for 2.7 seconds. Trust me, after 20 years in this industry, I can tell you that no one has ever been hired because they had perfect markdown indentation in their README. But hey, at least your contribution graph looks like you've been coding like a maniac while you were actually just adding and removing spaces.

This Title Has No Meaninful Contribution To Society
Ah, the classic GitHub existential crisis! Someone created a repo with the self-aware name "This project has no meaningful contribution to society" and then someone else opened an issue with the most dramatic comment possible: "We are in dire and immediate need of innovation." It's like showing up to a kid's lemonade stand and demanding they solve the global water crisis. The best part? The issue got 19 reactions and was promptly closed. Nothing says "welcome to open source" like passionate debates about projects that openly admit their uselessness. This is basically every developer's side project that started with "I'll change the world" and ended with "please don't look at my code."
