UDP vs TCP but make it wildly inappropriate. The left side shows UDP doing its thing—just yeeting that dick pic into the void with zero confirmation, no handshake, no nothing. Classic fire-and-forget protocol energy. Meanwhile TCP on the right is out here establishing a full three-way handshake before sending anything, complete with consent verification, acknowledgments for every message, and a proper connection termination with FIN packets. It's the networking equivalent of asking "may I?" before every single action. The best part? TCP even acknowledges the compliment AND the thank you. That's some next-level reliable delivery right there. UDP could never—it doesn't even know if its packet arrived, let alone whether anyone appreciated it. This is what they mean when they say "connection-oriented vs connectionless protocols" in your networking textbook, just with significantly more inappropriate metaphors than your professor used.

Technical debt, visualized. Two bricklayers casually building a wall with a massive structural failure in the middle, yet they're just working around it like nothing's wrong. Classic "ship now, fix later" mentality that haunts codebases everywhere. The architectural equivalent of using duct tape and prayers in production. Future developers will inherit this masterpiece and question their career choices.
