Oh look, it's the "my code is basically just a long-winded love letter to the compiler" approach. Every single line drowning in comments that explain the blindingly obvious while adding zero actual value. This is what happens when someone takes "document your code" advice and cranks it to 11. You know who writes code like this? The same person who explains what a fork is while handing it to you at dinner. The real irony? After 7 years in the industry, you'll be begging for any comments in the 10,000-line legacy codebase you've inherited. Just not... whatever this crime against syntax highlighting is.

The three horsemen of developer apocalypse, beautifully color-coded for your impending doom: Chaos: Visualizing your node_modules folder structure is like staring into the abyss. That dependency tree isn't a tree—it's an entire enchanted forest where packages go to multiply like rabbits. Destruction: The infamous rm -rf / command—the digital equivalent of "let's see what happens if I cut this red wire." One misplaced space and suddenly your machine thinks you want a factory reset... of your entire life. War: Force pushing to Git is basically declaring nuclear warfare on your colleagues. Nothing says "I'm the captain now" like obliterating everyone else's commits because merge conflicts are just too much effort.

The bathroom standoff of programming languages continues into 2025. While other devs avoid the PHP programmer at the urinals like he's carrying a digital plague, the PHP dev is still clinging to relevance with that desperate "78% of the Internet" statistic. It's the coding equivalent of that guy who peaked in high school and won't stop talking about that one touchdown. Sure, WordPress powers a chunk of the web, but so did Internet Explorer once upon a time. Doesn't mean it wasn't a dumpster fire with legacy support.
