Small Function, Big Documentation

The tiniest function in the codebase, yet somehow has the most dramatic documentation. That empty function with a novel-length comment explaining why we don't use it is the programming equivalent of buying gym equipment just to hang clothes on it. The best part? It's private, so nobody else will ever see your shame. That's not technical debt—it's a historical artifact preserved for future archaeologists to puzzle over.

I Just Think They're Neat

Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of project managers questioning my PRECIOUS collection of 1000+ unused libraries! 💅 Listen, sweetheart, I don't come to YOUR desk and question why you have 47 Gantt charts for a project that was supposed to be done LAST YEAR. These libraries are my emotional support dependencies! Some developers collect stamps, I collect npm packages that I might use someday in that hypothetical perfect project that exists only in my dreams. And YES, our build time is 4 hours and our node_modules folder is larger than the known universe, but LOOK AT ALL THESE PRETTY PACKAGES! They're just sitting there... being neat! Is that a crime now?!
