It's Not Because Of You, It's Because Of That Race Condition

The classic "it's not you, it's me" breakup line gets a multithreaded makeover! Our poor developer thought throwing mutexes and closing channels would fix their relationship problems, but they missed the fundamental truth of concurrent programming: no amount of locks can protect you from emotional deadlocks.

Meanwhile, their partner is contemplating switching to the "Hawk TUAH" - which is either some obscure programming framework or proof that even in bed, developers are thinking about optimizing performance. Spoiler alert: neither mutexes nor Hawk TUAH will save this relationship from its fatal exception.
