At Least I Commented It

comments-memes, code-maintenance-memes, documentation-memes, legacy-code-memes, self-documentation-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

That moment of existential horror when you open up code from six months ago and find your 17-paragraph manifesto explaining a single function. Past you really thought future you would need a dissertation on why you used a for-loop instead of map(). Bonus points if the comment is longer than the actual code and includes phrases like "DO NOT TOUCH THIS OR EVERYTHING WILL EXPLODE" and "I'm so sorry for whoever has to maintain this." Plot twist: it's still you.

Normalization? Never Heard Of Her.

Behold, the perfect metaphor for every "I'll fix it later" database design. That Polish town is what happens when junior devs store everything in one massive table—address, name, payment info, order history, favorite color, and probably their grandmother's maiden name too. Database normalization exists for a reason, folks. Without it, you're just cramming 6,000 entities onto a single street called "users_table_v2_FINAL_ACTUALLY_FINAL.sql" and wondering why your queries take longer than a Windows update.
