Literally Me Going Through A Colleague's Repo

Ah, the classic "new guy syndrome" where fresh blood joins the team and immediately wants to nuke the entire codebase from orbit because a function has one too many parameters. The meme perfectly captures that moment when you're desperately trying to stop the enthusiastic junior dev from replacing your battle-tested monolith with microservices written in whatever framework was trending on Hacker News this morning. Meanwhile, the rest of us are silently thinking: "Sure, let's rewrite 5 years of edge-case handling because you don't like our naming conventions. What could possibly go wrong?"

The classic "signs of a stroke" medical diagram gets a programmer twist with "if u can't more productive with AI its skill issue" replacing "incoherent speech." Ah yes, nothing says "I'm having a mental breakdown" quite like blaming your inability to leverage AI on your own incompetence. The grammatical errors really sell it too. That's the kind of nonsensical garbage you'd type right before your brain completely shuts down from 72 straight hours of debugging.

Ah, the beautiful delusion of aspiring game developers on Reddit. A collage of clueless questions from people who think making the next Fortnite is just a weekend project away. After 15 years in the industry, I can confirm these are the same questions we've seen since the dawn of time: "What laptop should I buy?" (As if hardware is the barrier), "Should I quit my job?" (Yes, because indie game dev pays so well), and my personal favorite: "I'm making an MMO on the blockchain" (Translation: I have no idea what I'm doing but buzzwords sound cool). The harsh reality? The difference between asking "How do I learn game development?" and shipping a game is roughly 10,000 hours of soul-crushing work. But sure, a pacifier and a dream is all you need.

The perfect Catch-22 of modern web development. The captcha asks you to select squares with bugs, but the entire grid is filled with obfuscated JavaScript that looks like it was written by someone having a seizure on their keyboard. That code is the digital equivalent of finding a spider nest in your bathroom - horrifying, incomprehensible, and you're not sure whether to debug it or burn down the whole server. Those hex values and nonsensical variable names? That's what your code looks like after three consecutive all-nighters fueled by nothing but Red Bull and desperation. The real question is: do you click on all squares because the code is definitely buggy, or hit skip because technically those are features, not bugs? After all, "it works on my machine."
