The Python developer's existential crisis in one image. Three heads of the same dragon representing different ways to express nothingness in Python: the menacing "NIL" (which doesn't exist in Python but haunts refugees from Ruby/Lisp), the intimidating "NULL" (a SQL/C++ concept that Python smugly rejects), and the derpy "None" (Python's actual singleton object for representing absence of value).
