Workflow Memes

Oh. My. GOD. The three stages of Git desperation captured in their natural habitat! 😱 On the left, we have the blissfully ignorant newbie who thinks git clone is the height of sophistication. HONEY, JUST WAIT. In the middle? That's you after discovering the UNHOLY TRINITY of git commands - cherry-pick , bisect , and rebase . The tears! The grinding teeth! The DRAMA of it all! And finally, the dark side. When you've stared into the abyss so long you've become one with it. rm -rf repo is no longer a tragedy - it's SWEET RELEASE. The bell curve doesn't lie, darling. We all end up in the same Git hell eventually. Resistance is FUTILE!

Who needs proper branching strategies when you can just dump everything into one glorious commit? The top shows a complex git branch workflow with multiple feature branches merging together - you know, what they teach in those fancy "best practices" courses. Meanwhile, the bottom shows what we actually do: one straight line of commits because who has time for that organized nonsense? Nothing says "I'll fix it in production" quite like bypassing code reviews and merging directly to main. Git blame? More like git shame.

GitHub's homepage is basically the digital equivalent of those fancy hotel lobbies nobody actually uses. Sure, it shows your repositories (all two of them), some activity feed nobody reads, and recommendations you'll definitely ignore. The real action happens when you frantically type "git clone" in terminal after clicking that tiny green "Code" button. Developers spend approximately 0.003% of their GitHub time on this page before immediately navigating to what they actually came for. It's like putting a beautiful welcome mat in front of a door everyone enters through the garage.

The Git workflow massacre in three acts: First, we see a majestic Airbus A350 on the runway - that's git commit , your changes safely packaged and ready. Next, the plane gloriously takes flight - git push sending your code to the remote repository. But wait! The punchline: git add is just people climbing stairs to nowhere. Because if you push without adding files first, you're essentially sending an empty plane. Nothing gets deployed except your career prospects. It's the classic "why isn't my code in production?" moment right before the horrifying realization that you've been committing and pushing literal nothingness for the past hour.

Ah, the ancient hieroglyphics of code written before the holiday break. You stare at it like an archaeologist trying to decipher a dead language. "Who wrote this?" you wonder, before checking git blame and realizing it was you... three weeks ago. The coffee isn't strong enough for this level of amnesia. Your brain has completely purged all context about what the hell you were thinking when you wrote that nested ternary operator. Just approve it and type "LGTM" (Looks Good To Me), because honestly, who even remembers how this codebase works anymore?
