The MIT License Paradox
The classic developer duality: "Sure, use my MIT-licensed code for anything you want!" followed by the existential crisis when someone actually does. It's like putting a "Free, take one" sign on your code and then having a meltdown when someone actually takes it. The MIT license is basically saying "here's my code, do whatever, just don't sue me" - until the theoretical becomes practical and suddenly you're questioning all your life choices. Nothing says "open source contributor" like the cognitive dissonance of wanting your work used while simultaneously feeling violated when it happens.
