Oh. My. GAWD. The AUDACITY of our brains to convince us that a new coding project will take "just 2 days" when in reality it transforms into a CATASTROPHIC NIGHTMARE of tangled code that looks like someone let a toddler play with spaghetti and electrical wires! ๐Ÿ’€

That optimistic little stick figure thinking they'll whip up something quick in VS Code, only to end up with what can only be described as the physical manifestation of a mental breakdown one month later. It's the developer equivalent of saying "I'll just have ONE chip" and then waking up surrounded by empty bags and regret.

Weekend projects are where dreams go to die and GitHub repos go to collect dust. But will we learn our lesson? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Next weekend we'll be right back at it with another "brilliant" idea!
