Before They Were Books
Remember the dark ages of programming? Two devs claim they've time-traveled, but when asked "when?" they decide to ask someone nearby for help. The punchline hits when they ask how to center a div (the eternal CSS nightmare) and get told to "look it up in the CSS manual." The final panel reveals this happened "before ChatGPT and StackOverflow" - back when we had to read actual documentation instead of copy-pasting solutions. Truly barbaric times. Some say senior devs still have nightmares about physical reference books.

Time Traveling AI Engineer
The time traveler has been spotted! ChatGPT launched in 2022, but apparently Courage was the beta tester back in '96. That old computer wasn't running Python or JavaScript—it was running pure anxiety. The irony of a "cowardly" dog secretly being the first AI prompt engineer is just *chef's kiss*. Developers today think they're revolutionary for asking an AI to write their regex, meanwhile Courage was probably using it to generate excuses for Eustace about why the farm's network was down again.

Time Traveler's Interview Fail
Reality check for time travelers: fantasizing about impressing ancient people with your coding skills until someone asks a basic data structures question. Turns out knowing how to reverse a binary tree is actually useful somewhere—just not in your imaginary sermon on the mount. The ultimate programmer humility check isn't a whiteboard interview at Google, it's being exposed as a fraud in 33 AD.

Time-Traveling Toddler Developer Required
Oh sweetie, you thought job requirements were REALISTIC? The absolute AUDACITY of these recruiters wanting a "junior" developer with a DECADE of experience! Like, honey, did you want me to code in the womb? Should I have been debugging while still on formula? Perhaps I should've mastered JavaScript before learning to WALK?! What's next - requiring 5 years experience in a framework that was released YESTERDAY? The tech industry's time paradox continues to be the most toxic relationship I've ever witnessed!

Temporal Tech Support Nightmare
Time traveler's first rule: check the I/O ports before packing. Nothing says "mission failed" quite like bringing a USB stick to a floppy party. The violent solution seems appropriate - that 90s computer clearly deserves what's coming after the crushing realization that your entire GitHub repo won't fit on 1.44MB. Pro tip: next time, bring a parallel port adapter and enough patience to last until 2023.

Time Zones, You're On Sight 👊
Whoever invented timezones has a special place reserved in developer hell. Nothing breaks your soul quite like debugging why your app works perfectly in California but crashes in Tokyo at exactly 3PM. I've spent entire sprints fixing date-related bugs only to have some PM go "but what about daylight savings?" and watch my will to live evaporate. If I could time travel, I wouldn't kill Hitler - I'd find the timezone inventor and show them my git blame history.
