Junior dev: "This is the worst code I've written."

Senior dev: "This is the worst code you've written so far."

That subtle distinction hits harder than a production outage on Friday at 4:59pm. The senior isn't just offering sympathy—they're delivering the brutal truth that your coding journey is just a series of increasingly complex mistakes waiting to happen. It's like getting a compiler error that says "I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed in your future self."

The first handler randomly blames an imaginary esoteric language (malbolge, brainfuck, or lisp) for your problems, while the second handler perfectly captures the existential dread of pointer manipulation. The comment "TODO: add more languages to make fun of" is the cherry on top—because even in our error handlers, we maintain a proper backlog. The developer who wrote this has clearly reached the "humor as coping mechanism" stage of programming.
