OH. MY. GOD. The horrifying revelation we all face eventually! ๐Ÿ˜ฑ After 15 years of searching through the ancient ruins of corporate codebases, our brave explorer discovers the REAL reason those nightmare legacy systems continue to haunt us.

Those same code criminals are STILL EMPLOYED THERE, probably getting promoted while newer devs sob into their keyboards trying to decipher their unholy spaghetti monstrosities. The audacity! The betrayal! The complete lack of documentation! *dramatically faints onto keyboard*
