Junior developer: "How do I remember what my code does?"

Senior developer: "That's the neat part. You don't."

The true hallmark of experience isn't perfect memory—it's the calm acceptance that you'll inevitably forget everything you write. That's why we have comments, documentation, and git blame. The senior's mustache contains more wisdom than all of StackOverflow combined.

The Elephant AI Never Saw

Oh, the classic "elephant in the room" problem has evolved into the "elephant in the AI" problem!

This is the digital equivalent of a unit test that passes despite the glaring bug. The AI confidently declares "Here's the image of an empty room with absolutely no elephants in it" while the evidence trunk-slaps you in the face. It's like when your code compiles without errors but still manages to crash spectacularly in production.

Let He Who Is Without Sin

The perfect representation of code review karma. First you're all high and mighty, pointing out bugs in someone's date converter. Then you see their conditional statement with zero-indexed months and suddenly you're face-down in shame because your code has the exact same off-by-one errors. The universe has a way of humbling developers right after they get cocky about someone else's bugs. That condition if(MONTH==0&&DAY==0){MONTH=11;DAY=31}; is exactly why we can't have nice things in programming. And also why we drink.
