Ah, the classic "if it ain't broke, break it" syndrome. Every developer knows that magical moment when your code actually works, and instead of celebrating, your brain whispers: "Let's make it better ." Next thing you know, you've unleashed 258 bugs and your face has morphed into that primal rage comic expression we all know too well. After 20 years in this industry, I've learned the hard way: working code is sacred. But do we listen to our own advice? Nope. We just have to refactor it into oblivion because apparently we hate happiness.

The eternal programmer's dilemma captured perfectly! On the left, we have the desperate developer frantically searching for documentation like Batman on a vengeance quest: "WHERE IS IT?!" Meanwhile, on the right is Bugs Bunny with that smug "NO" when it's their turn to write documentation. This is basically every codebase ever. We all want comprehensive docs when we're trying to understand someone else's cryptic code, but when it's time to document our own "perfectly self-explanatory" masterpiece? Suddenly we're too busy for such trivial matters. The hypocrisy is *chef's kiss*.
