PHP sitting there like the cockroach that survived the nuclear apocalypse while everyone keeps throwing funeral arrangements at it. For THREE DECADES people have been writing PHP's obituary, and yet here we are in 2025 celebrating its 30th birthday like it's some kind of immortal deity that feeds on developer hatred.

ColdFusion? Dead. ASP.NET's glory days? Faded. NextJS being the "PHP killer"? PHP literally laughed and ate another slice of birthday cake. The cycle is HILARIOUS: new framework drops → "PHP is dead!" → PHP continues powering like 77% of the web → confused pikachu face → repeat.

The joke is that they sound similar but are drastically different entities - one builds software, the other builds... well, a different kind of system. Developers who confuse these two should expect runtime errors of the political variety.

I Hate PHP Until It Pays The Bills

Developer: "I hate PHP! Get that thing out of my face!" *Discovers Laravel framework* *Aggressively chomps Laravel* *Suddenly sees dollar signs floating around* It's the classic developer journey from "PHP is trash" to "actually I can make money with this" pipeline.
