See You In Six Months

The eternal time bomb of software development strikes again! This poor developer just "fixed" the tests broken by Daylight Savings Time by subtracting an hour from the expected results. Meanwhile, his hippie colleague is horrified because the actual solution was converting everything to UTC and making the tests timezone-aware. This is the coding equivalent of putting duct tape on a leaking nuclear reactor. Sure, the tests pass today, but in six months when DST changes again? Complete meltdown. The developer will be long gone, leaving behind a legacy of technical debt and confused Stack Overflow questions.

The Spaghetti Just Works, It's Like Magic!

The perfect visual metaphor for gamedev codebases everywhere. Like the Cat in the Hat, your code is juggling fish, cake, books, and milk while somehow not collapsing into a heap of runtime errors. Nobody knows how it works. Nobody dares refactor it. One wrong move and that delightful game experience turns into a stack trace from hell. But hey, as long as the players are having fun, who cares if your inheritance hierarchy looks like a family tree from medieval royalty? Ship it now, clean it never. The first rule of technical debt club.
