Me 3 Minutes Ago Testing The Skribbl.io Status

The ultimate tech origin story carved in stone! That runestone honors King Harald "Bluetooth" Gormsson, whose nickname inspired the wireless technology we all know and hate when it randomly disconnects during important calls. Fun fact: The Bluetooth symbol () is actually a combination of Harald's initials in Nordic runes (ᚼ and ᛒ). Ericsson putting this at their entrance is like the ancient equivalent of a company flexing their heritage in the most literal way possible. Next up: A stone tablet commemorating the inventor of Wi-Fi, conveniently placed where the signal doesn't reach.

Turning down a high-paying job with great benefits because it involves PHP? That's what I call principled poverty . The real moral dilemma isn't the adult content site—it's having to tell people at parties that you're a PHP developer. Some developers would rather live in a cardboard box than add that language to their LinkedIn profile. Standards before salary, folks!

Nothing says "secure facility" like threatening execution-style murder for unauthorized access. Guess regular locks were too mainstream for the sysadmin. The warning sign perfectly captures IT's subtle approach to security: "Touch our precious servers and get kneecapped." And they wonder why no one volunteers to help during server migrations.

When someone says "Please follow protocol," normal people think of rules and procedures. But programmers? We immediately start wondering which protocol they're talking about! This meme brilliantly captures that moment with a menacing character surrounded by a chaotic swarm of networking and communication protocols - TCP, UDP, HTTP, MQTT, Bluetooth, and many more. It's like the programmer's brain going into overdrive: "You want me to follow protocol? WHICH ONE OF THESE DEMONS DO YOU MEAN?!" The irony is perfect - while most people use "protocol" in a general sense, programmers live in a world where we juggle dozens of specific technical protocols daily. And let's be honest, choosing the wrong one can absolutely turn you into that terrifying creature in the image when your system inevitably crashes and burns. 😂

THE ABSOLUTE VIOLATION OF WATCHING YOUR CURSOR MOVE WITHOUT YOUR CONSENT! 😱 There you are, innocently sipping coffee, when suddenly—YOUR MOUSE IS POSSESSED! That IT person is now navigating your digital kingdom, opening folders you forgot existed, seeing your questionable file naming system, and probably judging your 37 browser tabs. It's like someone walking into your house and rearranging your furniture while you just stand there, powerless, watching the digital intimacy unfold. The ultimate surrender of control!

Frontend developers trying to access backend data be like: "I was THIS close to paradise!" CORS policy is that annoying bouncer that won't let your API requests into the club even though they're on the list. Nothing quite like spending three hours debugging only to realize you forgot a header in your fetch request. The browser's just sitting there like "Nice try buddy, no cross-origin requests for you today!" And the backend developer who set it up? Probably laughing while sipping coffee somewhere.
