So you learned recursion and decided to write your first recursive function. Congratulations, you've just created an infinite loop that'll consume all available memory until your system begs for mercy.

The Gru plan meme format works beautifully here because it captures that exact moment when you realize your "elegant" recursive solution is missing a base case. The function just keeps calling itself, spawning smaller versions of itself infinitely, like a digital matryoshka doll that never ends.

Stack overflow errors aren't just a website name—they're a rite of passage. Welcome to programming, where forgetting one if (n === 0) return; turns your computer into a space heater.
