I Hope You Like Meta Tables

The Lua programming language is notorious for its unique approach to data structures where literally everything is implemented as a table. While other languages have distinct arrays, dictionaries, objects, etc., Lua just says "table or gtfo."

And don't get me started on arrays starting at index 1 instead of 0! The character's sweaty discomfort is every developer who's ever had to switch contexts from a "normal" language to Lua and suddenly found themselves off-by-one on every loop. It's like wearing shoes on the wrong feet—technically functional but fundamentally unsettling.

The meme perfectly captures that moment when you realize Lua's simplicity is both its greatest strength and the reason you're questioning your life choices at 2PM on a Tuesday.
