OH. MY. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of variable naming evolution! 😱 This poor soul just excavated their coding history only to discover that "feet" was once the dignified "legend_handles" that somehow morphed into "leg_hands" and finally degraded to "feet." The coding archaeology expedition that NOBODY asked for! It's like watching your variable names play a deranged game of telephone until they're completely unrecognizable. Future you will ALWAYS judge past you—it's the circle of coding life, darling! 💅
