Digital Fight-Or-Flight Response

The digital equivalent of stepping on a LEGO brick at midnight. Nothing triggers fight-or-flight response faster than seeing that blue 'e' logo appear when you were aiming for literally any other browser. Even Microsoft devs probably have Chrome pinned to their taskbar and Edge hidden in a folder labeled "In Case of Audit." The irony is Edge actually runs on Chromium now, but old habits and trauma die hard.

The Build Tool Hierarchy

The build tool hierarchy according to C++ developers! BSD Make gets a mild "meh" reaction. GNU Make earns a fancy tuxedo upgrade and approving smile. But NMAKE? That's Microsoft's Windows build tool that makes Pooh show his teeth in pure rage. It's the compiler equivalent of stepping on a LEGO while debugging a memory leak at 3AM. The perfect visual representation of why developers would rather rewrite their entire codebase than deal with Visual Studio's native build system.

Very Inefficient But Entertaining

From the future archives of Twitter (or whatever Elon's renamed it by 2025)! Bill Gates innocently asks what VIBE stands for in "Vibe Coding," only for Linux creator Linus Torvalds to drop the perfect burn: "Very Inefficient But Entertaining." That's literally the coding philosophy of 90% of developers who push to production on Friday afternoons. Writing beautiful, inefficient code that somehow works is practically an art form at this point. Sure, it might take 8GB of RAM to display "Hello World," but did you see those gradient animations?

Ah, the elusive A: drive. For the younger devs who've never experienced the joy of floppy disks, the A: drive was the default letter for that ancient 3.5" data rectangle that stored a whopping 1.44MB. That's right—not GB, not even MB—just 1.44MB. You could fit approximately one-third of a modern JavaScript framework's readme file on there. These days, most computers don't even have physical drive letters anymore, just abstract mount points that hide in the shadows like well-documented code.
