Feature Updates Gone Wrong

You know that feeling when your codebase is running smooth, optimized, and beautiful? Then product management decides it needs "just one more feature" and suddenly you're introducing unnecessary complexity, bloat, and technical debt. The monkey with a stick represents that shiny new feature nobody asked for, aggressively poking at your pristine, battle-tested code that was perfectly content just lying there being efficient. The lion's resigned expression? That's your code after the 47th "quick enhancement" that somehow required refactoring three modules and adding two new dependencies. Sometimes the best feature is no feature at all, but try explaining that in a sprint planning meeting.
