I Dont Remember This Scene

Nothing says "I'm a real programmer" like spending 80% of your time frantically Googling "how to exit vim" for the 47th time this week. While normal people worry about finding inappropriate texts, your partner just discovered your deepest, darkest shame: you still can't remember if it's :wq , :q! , or just smashing your keyboard until something happens. The true walk of shame isn't leaving someone's apartment—it's admitting you've been using Vim for 5 years and still need to look up basic commands. At least she now knows why you're always muttering "hjkl" in your sleep.

THE ABSOLUTE TRAGEDY of explaining to your Neovim-obsessed friend why their precious "lightweight" text editor is somehow devouring 2GB of RAM while doing ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! 💀 Like, honey, if I wanted something to eat all my resources while sitting idle, I'd just install Chrome! Your terminal-based minimalist editor with 500 plugins, custom Lua configurations, and language servers is basically an IDE in denial. The conspiracy board in the background is just *chef's kiss* perfect for mapping out this relationship between Neovim and your RAM.

Ah, the sacred scrolls of developer archetypes. The Barbarian who worships C and recites man pages is just your average Unix greybeard who thinks anything after Perl is heresy. The Rogue is basically every crypto bro with questionable ethics and a VPN. Wizards are those mythical 10x developers whose code is so advanced no one can maintain it after they leave. Clerics are the TDD zealots who'd rather write tests than actually ship anything. And Druids? Just sysadmins who've spent so much time in server rooms they've started identifying as network packets. I've worked with all five. The Druid still owes me $20 and insists I call him "FoxTail69" at happy hour.

The evolution of developers has taken a tragic turn! Back in the glory days, programmers were depicted as muscular chads who wrote code without AI assistance or Stack Overflow, built entire games in Assembly language (absolute madlads), crafted mission-critical code for Moon landings, and fixed memory leaks by manually tweaking pointers. Fast forward to today, and we've devolved into bizarre creatures who can't center a div without Googling it for the 500th time, beg ChatGPT to fix basic syntax errors, get trapped in Vim like it's some kind of developer prison (":q! anyone?"), and somehow manage to create three new bugs while fixing just one. The brutal reality check hits hard. We went from programming gods to dependency-addicted gremlins who can't function without our precious tools. Progress?

Remember when programmers were basically coding demigods who could bend computers to their will? Now we're just sad creatures Googling "how to center div" for the 500th time and begging AI to fix our mistakes. The golden age programmer wrote code without StackOverflow, crafted entire games in Assembly (you know, that language that makes you want to cry), manually fixed memory leaks with pointers, and literally hand-coded the software that put humans on the freaking moon. Meanwhile, modern programmers are trapped in Vim wondering why :q doesn't work, fixing one bug only to create three more like some kind of hydra nightmare, and asking ChatGPT to solve problems we should probably understand ourselves. The decline is real, folks. But hey, at least we have dark mode now.

The universe LITERALLY screams "NO" when someone considers switching to Vim! The hands desperately clinging to that sword represent every developer's sanity trying to avoid the bottomless pit of keyboard shortcuts and command modes that is Vim. Sweet merciful heavens, the audacity to even CONSIDER abandoning your cozy IDE with its friendly menus and intuitive interface! You might as well announce you're giving up electricity and moving to a cave. Once you enter Vim, you'll spend the next decade of your life trying to figure out how to exit it. THE HORROR!
