You know you've reached peak programmer when a missing semicolon causes more emotional damage than a breakup. While normal people lose sleep over relationships, we're here at 3 AM staring at our screen like a detective, hunting down that one tiny punctuation mark that's been sabotaging our entire application. The worst part? Your IDE probably highlighted it 47 times, but your brain was too busy being a genius to notice. Four days of debugging, Stack Overflow deep dives, rubber duck conversations, and questioning your career choices... all because of a character that's literally smaller than an ant. Pro tip: The bug is always in the last place you look, which coincidentally is always the first line you wrote.

Content ?php header ("Content-type: texthtml; charsetutf-8"); This is a warning to any poor soul who may have to deal with this code. I took over this criminal piece of chaos from a monkey named Joel who I assume had been given a typewriter by Mephistopheles himself. For reasons I have yet been unable to fathom, he decided to patch together this thing using a Base setup hardwired into an unfixably broken Manjaro VM, queried by a handwritten plate of uncommented PHP spaghetti fit to feed an army of people with a serious death wish, without any framework or CMS. The very long BaseX script, very long PH presenter and very long XSLT stylesheet mostly perform the same heuristic document structuring for different components and are supposed to produce compatible results, but I bet they have mismatches somewhere. Since Prof. T just wanted a few small functional enhancements, I decided to just patch it and keep the general setup. Unless you were hired to correct some spelling mistakes, DO NOT FOLLOW IN MY STEPS. Putting up with this simulation of how a goldfish would design a system has literally given me CLINICAL DEPRESSION. This is not an exaggeration, I am writing this after a prolonged medical therapy - mostly successful, thanks for asking, but not fun. I wouldn't wish this code on anybody who isn't a manager at Oracle or Facebook, and therefore give you this sincere advice: Nuke this. Take the XSLT if you must, and then nuke the app and recreate it in Django or whatever works for you. I would do it myself, but I risked a relapse simply by opening this file again to write this comment. Dear brother or sister, I wish you all the luck and strength in the world and hope it will be enough.

Romance? Cute. Missing a semicolon? Absolute nightmare fuel. Nothing quite like staring at your screen at 3 AM, bloodshot eyes, questioning your entire career choice because your code won't compile over a punctuation mark that's smaller than a fruit fly. The compiler's just sitting there... judging you... while you slowly descend into madness. Four days without sleep is rookie numbers when you're hunting down that syntax error that's hiding in plain sight.
