The instant transformation from dead-inside to pure joy when a meeting gets canceled is the most authentic developer emotion ever captured. That precious hour you just got back? That's not "catch up on emails" time—that's "finally fix that cursed bug without someone asking for a status update every 15 minutes" time. The headphones stay on either way because they're not just for music—they're the universal symbol for "I'm in the zone, interrupt me and I'll rewrite your Git history."

The modern dev dependency crisis in full display! Remember when we used to actually write code instead of prompting AI for solutions? Now it's all "Hey ChatGPT, implement a binary search tree" while our actual coding muscles atrophy.
