Oh. My. GOD! The absolute AUDACITY of this developer! 💅 While you're over here being a precious little angel asking fifty questions to do something perfectly, this DIABOLICAL GENIUS is playing 4D chess with the client! They're not gathering requirements—they're GATHERING EVIDENCE to prove the whole project is utterly pointless! The ultimate "work smarter not harder" power move! Why spend 80 hours coding when you can spend 2 hours convincing someone they don't need the thing they thought they needed?! It's not laziness, honey, it's EFFICIENCY at its most RUTHLESS!

That magnificent dragon app you've been architecting in your head for six months? Yeah, it somehow shipped as the Chrome dinosaur game. The gap between our grand technical visions and what we actually manage to implement is the most reliable constant in software development. Still counts as a finished project though, right? Just tell the stakeholders it's "an elegant solution optimized for resource constraints."
