How Did You Become A Programmer?

Asked for an address, gave the localhost IP. When pressed for a physical address, responded with a MAC address. The perfect way to identify yourself as someone who should never be invited to normal social gatherings. This is the tech equivalent of answering "where are you from?" with your exact GPS coordinates and then your genetic sequence.

The laziest SVG "conversion" known to mankind. Instead of actually converting the PNG to vector graphics, some genius just embedded the entire PNG image inside an SVG wrapper. It's like putting a hamburger inside a taco shell and calling it Mexican cuisine. The shocked cat perfectly captures how any self-respecting developer feels discovering this abomination in production code. Bonus points if this was done by the same person who puts all their CSS in a <style> tag at the bottom of each HTML file.

Nothing breaks the sound barrier quite like a developer's fingers after accidentally deleting three hours of work. Cheetahs run at 70 mph, planes fly at 550 mph, light travels at 186,000 miles per second... but the Ctrl+Z reflex after a code deletion mistake? That's practically teleportation. Physics professors are still trying to measure it. The speed is directly proportional to how much coffee you've had and how close you are to a deadline.

Let's be honest—we're all one bad sprint from quitting and opening a food truck. The golden handcuffs of tech salaries keep us debugging other people's spaghetti code at 2 AM instead of pursuing our actual dreams. Sure, I could make artisanal cupcakes for a living, but how would I afford my collection of unused Udemy courses and mechanical keyboards? The real programmer dream isn't building the next unicorn—it's finding any other job that pays six figures for turning caffeine into semicolons.
