When Your Regex Matches Too Much

regex-memes, subreddit-memes, pattern-matching-memes, programming-fail-memes, escape-characters-memes | ProgrammerHumor.io

When your regex is so powerful it accidentally matches the entire subreddit template string. Congratulations, you've achieved peak pattern matching - your expression was so inclusive it got banned for "promoting hate." Next time try adding a few more escape characters before you accidentally DELETE FROM users WHERE 1=1;
