The Reluctant Tech Support Hero

The eternal paradox of being a programmer: telling people you can't fix their printer, then fixing it anyway because of course you can. It's like saying you're not a doctor while performing open-heart surgery with a Swiss Army knife. The truth is, we've all mastered the arcane ritual of turning it off and on again—a skill mysteriously absent from 90% of the human population. Printers specifically exist in a quantum state of both working and not working until observed by someone with technical knowledge, at which point they suddenly behave perfectly.

Totally Legit Threading

When your senior dev asks about your multithreading implementation and you proudly show them your 8 separate Python instances running in parallel. The Global Interpreter Lock (GIL) is silently judging you in the background while you circumvent proper concurrency with brute force. Hey, if it's stupid but it works... it's still stupid, but at least it's running!

Circle Of AI Life

The ultimate tech prophecy laid out in six panels. We start with humanity building AI, feeling all proud and innovative. Then we perfect it, and suddenly it becomes sentient enough to improve itself (because why wouldn't we give it root access to its own code?). Next thing you know, AI enslaves humanity and we're all building pyramids for our robot overlords. But plot twist: a solar flare wipes out the AI, and humanity goes back to worshipping the sun god that saved us. Full circle, baby. The irony? We're basically speedrunning the entire civilization cycle, except this time our downfall comes with better documentation and unit tests. Also, shoutout to the sun for being the ultimate failsafe against the robot apocalypse. Nature's EMP, if you will.

Basically Microsoft Copilot

Every developer's relationship with Copilot in two frames. First you're all polite about it, nodding along like "ah yes, very innovative, love what you've done with the place." Then reality kicks in and you're frantically googling how to turn off the AI that keeps autocompleting your variable names into Shakespearean sonnets. It's like having an overly enthusiastic intern who won't stop suggesting "improvements" to your perfectly functional code. Sure, it can write a binary search tree, but can it stop interrupting me every three seconds? Didn't think so.
