Might As Well Try
Computer Science: where nothing else has made the code work, so you might as well try licking it. Honestly, this tracks. After exhausting Stack Overflow, rewriting the entire function, sacrificing a rubber duck, and questioning your career choices, the scientific method becomes "whatever, let's just see what happens." Computer Engineering gets the "tingle of electricity on your tongue" test, which is disturbingly accurate for hardware debugging. The rest of the sciences have actual safety protocols, but CS? Just try random stuff until the compiler stops screaming at you. It's not debugging, it's percussive maintenance for your sanity. The real kicker is that this method works more often than it should. Changed a variable name? Fixed. Deleted a comment? Suddenly compiles. Added a random semicolon? Production ready. Science.

Either It All Fits On The Stack Or You Need A Bigger Stack
Behold the absolute MADLAD who decided that heap allocation is for the weak and cowardly! Why bother with malloc() or new when you can just throw everything onto the stack like you're playing Jenga with your program's memory? Stack overflow? Never heard of her. Just casually allocating 50MB arrays as local variables and watching your program crash with the grace of a drunk giraffe on ice skates. The sheer AUDACITY of living life on the edge, where every function call is a gamble and segmentation faults are just spicy surprises. Who needs proper memory management when you can just increase the stack size and pretend the problem doesn't exist? It's giving "I don't have a hoarding problem, I just need a bigger house" energy but make it programming.

Raise Hands If You Exist
The meme shows a fear hierarchy with a terrified child labeled "Serial Killers" cowering from a girl labeled "Psychopaths," who's scared of something even worse: "Those who code 1000+ lines on notepad without any internet support and it compiles with 0 errors and 0 warnings." Coding without Stack Overflow is already traumatic enough, but doing it in Notepad? Without syntax highlighting, auto-complete, or error checking? And then having it compile perfectly on the first try? That's not human—that's supernatural horror. The kind of developer who writes flawless code in Notepad either made a deal with a compiler demon or has achieved coding nirvana that mere mortals can only dream of.

Feeling The Burn Of Self-Recognition
That awkward moment when you're Googling "worst coding practices to avoid" and suddenly your entire codebase is being described in painful detail. Nothing quite matches the existential dread of realizing you're not reading a list of mistakes—you're reading your autobiography. The side-eye puppet perfectly captures that moment of horrific self-awareness when Stack Overflow basically says "you know that thing you're doing? Yeah, don't do that." Bonus points if you find your exact implementation labeled as "Example of what NOT to do."

The Sacred Trinity Of IT Troubleshooting
The sacred trinity of IT troubleshooting, visualized with scientific precision. Roughly 70% of problems magically resolve with the ancient ritual of "turning it off and on again." Another 15% require the advanced technique of typing error messages into Google and nodding thoughtfully at Stack Overflow posts. The remaining 15%? Just walk into the room and watch users suddenly exclaim "Oh wait, it's working now!" Nothing fixes technology faster than the quantum observer effect of someone who looks like they know what they're doing.

The Perpetual Linux Evangelism Machine
The ultimate renewable energy source: Linux evangelism! Someone says "Linux can't do that" and boom—an army of penguin enthusiasts hikes uphill with solar-powered loudspeakers, only to fall through a trapdoor and power a turbine on their way down. It's basically how the entire Stack Overflow ecosystem functions. The best part? They're safely deposited at the bottom, ready to climb again when someone mentions gaming on Windows. The circle of life continues, and free electricity for everyone!

The Tale Of Two Workspaces
Ah, the duality of developer workspaces. Up top, the Linux creator's minimalist battle station: a single monitor, standing desk, and probably a terminal running on bare metal. Because who needs fancy IDEs when you've mastered vim and your brain compiles code faster than your machine. Meanwhile, the ChatGPT code copier sits in their villain lair surrounded by unnecessary monitors displaying the same Stack Overflow answers from six different angles. All that hardware just to ask an AI to write a function that prints "Hello World." The irony? Both produce code that breaks in production.

Four Years Of Knowledge And Still Internally Screaming
The existential dread of a programmer with 4 years of experience being told they "have lots of knowledge." That cat's face is the perfect representation of internal screaming while thinking about the 47 JavaScript frameworks released since breakfast, the legacy codebase nobody understands, and the Stack Overflow answers from 2011 that somehow still work. Four years in and you've just mastered the art of googling error messages more efficiently.

When You Know The Code Is Vibe-Coded
That DEVASTATING moment when you just KNOW in your SOUL that someone's code is held together by prayers, energy drinks, and Stack Overflow copypasta — but it somehow works flawlessly in production! The absolute AUDACITY of code that violates every clean code principle yet runs faster than your meticulously crafted masterpiece. It's giving "chaotic evil genius" energy and I'm simultaneously impressed and offended. The code equivalent of wearing socks with sandals and STILL getting compliments!

Monkey See, Monkey Google
The self-conscious monkey meme perfectly captures the existential crisis of every developer who's built their entire career on Stack Overflow answers and documentation lookups. When a doctor says "Googling doesn't make you a doctor," devs suddenly realize their entire professional identity is just strategic Googling with extra steps. The awkward side-eye is that moment you remember your last 8-hour debugging session was solved by a random comment from 2013 with 2 upvotes. We're not doctors, we're just professional Googlers with better search syntax!
