Your personal project getting absolutely swarmed by every AI coding assistant and open-source library known to humanity. Claude Code whispering sweet nothings in one ear, OpenAI's Codex breathing down your neck, and random GitHub repos you cloned at 2 AM all fighting for dominance in your codebase. The project just sits there, overwhelmed and confused, wondering how it went from a simple "Hello World" to being surrounded by more dependencies than a JavaScript node_modules folder. Bukkake-coding: when you let every tool, framework, and AI assistant have their way with your code until you can't tell what you wrote anymore versus what the machines generated. At least your commit history will be... interesting.

Someone suggests optimizing your site and you're just sitting there nodding along like "yeah, yeah, optimization, totally." Then they hit you with "add another plugin" and suddenly you're Joey from Friends with the biggest smile on your face. Because why spend hours refactoring code and actually learning performance best practices when you can just slap on another 500KB WordPress plugin that promises to make everything faster? Sure, your site now loads 47 different JavaScript files and has more dependencies than a soap opera, but at least you didn't have to touch any actual code. The plugin says it optimizes things, so it must be working, right? Right?
