Keep Your API Secrets Then
THE ABSOLUTE DRAMA of trying to implement a client API that refuses to share its documentation! You're sitting there, practically BEGGING for a crumb of information, and the API is just standing there like "All right then. Keep your secrets." The sheer AUDACITY! You're expected to somehow connect to this mysterious black box while the documentation is locked away in some digital vault guarded by dragons or something. Fine! I'll just reverse engineer your entire system through trial, error, and seventeen mental breakdowns. WHO NEEDS SLEEP ANYWAY?!

My Documentation Is Old... Very Old
When your codebase relies on documentation written during the Bush administration. Legolas here perfectly captures that moment when you realize the docs were written by an ancient developer who has long since departed to the Undying Lands (or Google). First panel: "My documentation is old" - You're hopeful it might still be relevant. Second panel: "very old" - Reality sinks in. This predates your programming language's current syntax. Third panel: "Full of memory" - Filled with references to deprecated functions and memory management techniques nobody uses anymore. Fourth panel: "and anger" - The inevitable emotion when you realize you'll have to reverse-engineer everything yourself while cursing whoever left this archaeological artifact behind.

Behold I Have Become Schizo The Destroyer Of Eyes
Someone: "Obfuscation doesn't work!" Meanwhile, the obfuscated code looks like hieroglyphics designed by an ancient programmer who hated their future self. It's not just unreadable—it's actively trying to cause psychic damage. The kind of code that makes your IDE contemplate a career change. Whoever wrote this didn't just obfuscate their code, they turned it into a cryptic summoning ritual that would make even the most hardened security expert weep into their mechanical keyboard. And yet, somewhere out there, a developer is proudly thinking "No one will ever reverse engineer THIS masterpiece!"

The Ultimate Homework Automation Hack
Why do the assigned task when you can build an entire automated system to avoid it? Nothing says "CS student energy" like spending 10x the effort to hack a solution rather than just watching those damn videos. College Board probably wanted to teach API integration anyway, right? The real lesson was the GraphQL queries we wrote along the way. Every developer knows that automating a 1-hour task with a 10-hour solution is the true mark of genius. It's not laziness—it's efficiency at scale . Future you will thank present you... maybe.

Hacking Then vs. Now: The Devolution Of Skill
Remember when hackers had to actually know things ? The big brain hacker of yesteryear reverse engineered binaries, wrote zines with 0day exploits, and gained root access just for the intellectual thrill. Fast forward to today, and we've got script kiddies drooling over their keyboards while Metasploit does all the work with a single command. For the uninitiated, Metasploit is basically the "I'm a hacker" starter pack that automates exploits so anyone can feel like Mr. Robot without understanding what's happening under the hood. It's like comparing someone who builds a car from scratch to someone who thinks they're a mechanic because they can turn the key. The future of hacking? Probably just asking ChatGPT to "do a hack please" while eating Cheetos.
