You know that feeling when someone asks you to explain a function you wrote six months ago? Or worse, one you wrote last week? Your brain goes into full panic mode trying to deflect like a politician at a hearing.

"The DOW is over 50,000 right now, that's what we should be talking about!" Yeah, and that nested ternary operator you wrote is a crime against humanity, but here we are. The desperate subject change is real when you realize you have absolutely no idea what that 47-line function actually does anymore. You just know it works... probably... don't touch it.

Pro tip: This is why comments exist. But let's be honest, you're not going to write them either. We'll just keep playing this game of "it works, ship it" until someone brave enough asks questions during code review.
