Using a real card for Stripe testing is like burning money to stay warm. The true flex isn't having a black Amex—it's knowing about Stripe's test card numbers like 4242 4242 4242 4242. Some developers just want to watch their bank account burn.

The entire software industry nervously looking away when doctors point out that Googling doesn't make you a professional. Meanwhile, 90% of our code is just StackOverflow solutions with the variable names changed. If doctors built bodies the way we build software, they'd be transplanting organs from WebMD comment sections and hoping the patient doesn't blue screen.

The four-panel reality check of developer existence! Society thinks we're hardware wizards fixing computers with screwdrivers. Parents imagine us as brilliant scientists revolutionizing technology. We fantasize we're algorithm-designing geniuses solving complex mathematical equations. Meanwhile, the brutal truth: frantically Googling "How to use dates in JavaScript" for the 47th time this week. Because no matter how many years of experience you have, the JavaScript Date object remains an eldritch horror that no mortal should have to comprehend without Stack Overflow as a spiritual guide.

OH. MY. GOSH. The Matrix meets modern web browsing in the most INFURIATING collision of worlds!

OH MY GOD, the AUDACITY of this login form! 💀 Imagine typing your super-secret password and the system basically screams "HEY EVERYONE, I KNOW WHO YOU ARE!" Talk about the world's worst security design! It's like hiring a bodyguard who announces your social security number through a megaphone.

Nothing says "welcome to programming hell" quite like getting a Stack Overflow link from some smug dev who's clearly enjoying your suffering. You're desperate, your code is broken, and this guy sends you to a 2011 thread where the accepted answer uses jQuery 1.4 and mentions Internet Explorer compatibility. The worst part? That sadistic smile when they know full well the solution hasn't worked since Obama's first term. And yet they'll still hit you with "did you try updating your dependencies?" while mentally adding another victim to their collection.
