The perfect visual representation of technical debt! The house is literally falling apart with supports barely holding it together, yet the client is wondering why adding a simple window is taking forever. Classic project management disconnect where non-technical stakeholders can't see that the codebase is a structural disaster zone. It's like asking why you can't just slap a new coat of paint on a burning building. The umbrella is my favorite part - someone's desperately trying to patch things while everything collapses!

Ah, the modern tech interview process in its final form. History major memorizes 500 LeetCode questions and gets hired at FAANG without knowing how to code. Meanwhile, senior devs with 10 years experience get rejected because they couldn't reverse a binary tree on a whiteboard fast enough. The system works perfectly. No notes.

Oh the beautiful tragedy of regex! First post: "You have A problem. Regex is the solution. Now you have 2 problems." Second post: "There was this saying: the plural of regex is regrets." It's like trying to fix your bike with a flamethrower. Sure, the original problem is gone, but now your bike is on fire and you're questioning all your life choices! The regex rabbit hole claims another victim... *plays tiny violin*

The five stages of code review grief, compressed into four panels. First, you're riding high on that dopamine rush when your code actually works. Next, you swagger into the senior dev's office like you've just solved P=NP. Then comes the inevitable soul-crushing "You did it wrong" feedback, followed by the final stage: complete existential collapse as you realize your approach was fundamentally flawed and those 8 hours of work were essentially a very educational waste of time. Classic senior dev move—they don't tell you HOW it's wrong, just that your entire existence as a programmer is questionable.

Ah, the battle-hardened senior dev vs. the fresh-faced junior. The senior is literally taking arrows from all sides—office politics, changing requirements, and those ever-looming deadlines—while still finding time to compliment the junior's CSS button. It's the perfect metaphor for tech career progression. By the time you reach senior level, you're not just writing code—you're a human shield absorbing corporate chaos while trying to mentor the next generation who think their biggest achievement is centering a div. The junior has no idea what's coming. None of us did. One day you're excited about button styling, the next you're in eight hours of meetings discussing "synergy" while your Jira tickets multiply like rabbits.

A perfectly organized system architecture puzzle gets absolutely demolished when "business logic" enters the chat. The developer starts with a clean, modular design where everything fits together beautifully—until the MBA graduate insists on jamming their "brilliant insights" into the middle. Next thing you know, your elegant API is cracking, your data layer is held together with duct tape, and you're taking a bath with a rubber duck trying to explain why their requirements violate the laws of computer science. The duck gets it. The business major never will.
