The brutal reality of zero-indexed arrays strikes again! Dad asks kid to count to ten, but the poor child starts with "1, 2..." instead of the programmer-approved "0, 1, 2...". Next frame: straight to the orphanage! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Every programmer knows arrays start at 0, not 1. It's the hill we die on (or apparently disown children over). The kid committed the cardinal sin of using 1-indexed counting in a 0-indexed household. No wonder dad's debugging tears are flowing - his offspring has a critical logic error!
