Classic unsigned 8-bit integer overflow hack! The genie says "3 wishes left" but our clever programmer wishes for "0 wishes left" causing the counter to underflow from 0 to 255. It's the digital equivalent of rolling your car's odometer backward, except you're exploiting the genie's primitive variable type implementation instead of committing odometer fraud. Somewhere, a CS professor is using this as an example of why input validation matters.

The IT Manager Costume: Scarier Than Any Horror Movie

Ah, the infamous IT Manager Halloween costume! Perfect for scaring the living daylights out of any developer who's been promised a tech stack upgrade since 2018. The packaging really nails the corporate horror experience - empty promises, mandatory crunch time, and the classic "let's hire a Senior Dev from outside instead of promoting that Junior who's been carrying the codebase for 3 years." The bonus feature of ignoring staff feedback is just *chef's kiss* - like running production with notifications muted. And don't miss that "Free Pizza" star, the universal symbol for "we won't fix the technical debt, but here's a lukewarm Domino's at 9pm while you debug that legacy system!"
