Me Pushing Code I Copied From Stack Overflow

The sheer panic when Stack Overflow hiccups for a tenth of a second is the most accurate representation of developer dependency I've ever seen. Nothing says "I have no idea what I'm doing" quite like frantically refreshing the page that contains all the answers to questions you're too afraid to admit you have. It's like watching your oxygen supply flicker while deep-sea diving. The world isn't ending, but try telling that to your deadline.

The perfect response when your coworker asks if you've consulted the documentation before bothering them with your problem. Ten years in this industry and I've developed a sixth sense for detecting who actually reads docs versus who just mashes Stack Overflow solutions together until something works. Documentation is like flossing - everybody claims they do it regularly, but the reality is much grimmer. Most devs would rather reverse-engineer an entire codebase than spend 5 minutes reading what the author actually intended.

The infamous O'Reilly parody book we all secretly need! "Error-Driven Development" perfectly captures that programming methodology where you just keep throwing code at the wall until the errors stop. It's basically how 90% of us actually code despite what we claim in job interviews. You know you've been there—frantically Googling error messages at 2 AM while questioning your career choices. This isn't a programming paradigm; it's a documentary of our daily lives. The orangutan's expression is all of us staring at the 57th cryptic exception message that makes absolutely no sense. Test-driven development? Please. We're just trying to survive until the next coffee break.
