Oh man, this hits WAY too close to home! 😂 Those stacked books with "THESE BOOKS ARE HERE FOR AN ESSENTIAL STRUCTURAL PURPOSE. THEY ARE NOT FOR SALE." is basically legacy code in physical form! You know, that ancient codebase nobody understands but everyone's terrified to touch because the whole system might collapse? The code that's literally holding up your entire production environment but has zero documentation? Yeah, THAT code. Touch it and the entire company implodes! The perfect metaphor for why we're all stuck maintaining 20-year-old spaghetti code written by developers who left the company during the dot-com bubble!

Just One Little Feature...

The classic "scope creep" nightmare in its purest form! That eager indie dev is *this close* to shipping on schedule when suddenly that innocent little feature request sneaks up behind them. "Just a tiny change," it whispers, while secretly requiring a complete engine rewrite, asset overhaul, and questioning every life decision that led to this career. The sweat drop says it all - they know they're about to kiss that release date goodbye, but they'll still say "yeah, I can add that real quick" because apparently devs never learn.
