Visual Studio's Existential Crisis

Someone asked the simplest question in the universe: "How do I get the length of a string in C#?" and Microsoft Community decided to write the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy as a response. Meanwhile, Stack Overflow just drops "str.Length" like a mic drop and walks away.

The look of pure trauma on developers' faces when a client says "But it needs to work in IE mode" is absolutely priceless. We've moved from writing code to writing therapy journal entries about our browser PTSD!

The guy isn't thinking about other women. He's having nightmares about Microsoft's latest move to force everyone into their ecosystem. First they made Microsoft accounts mandatory, and now the prophecy of subscription-based Windows looms on the horizon. It's the tech equivalent of watching a horror movie where the killer keeps coming back for sequels nobody asked for. Sleep well, fellow sysadmins... if you can.
