And A Million Vibe Coders Cried Out In Pain

You innocently add a tiny 1KB package to your project, and suddenly your terminal transforms into a black hole of dependency hell. First, you're standing impatiently. Then checking your watch. Next thing you know, you're sitting in the field contemplating your life choices. Finally, you're just lying there, accepting your mortality as npm installs the entire internet just to make your button slightly rounder. The circle of JavaScript life: birth, dependency installation, death.

Sometimes I wonder if returning to monke would be easier than debugging that React component for the 17th time. The sweet bliss of ignorance—no JavaScript frameworks, no variable scope issues, just vibing with the squad and hunting for ants. The ultimate escape from dependency hell. Maybe those chimps are onto something...

Oh. My. God. The absolute TRAVESTY that is modern web development! Look at this abomination - everything is just a <div> soup now! HTML purists over here using semantic tags like civilized humans while the "agile & dynamic" crowd is just slapping <div> tags on LITERALLY EVERYTHING like they're going out of style! 💅 Want to create a navigation menu? That's a <div>. Need a blockquote? ANOTHER <div>! Creating a responsive grid? Let's throw in some <span> tags just to spice things up! Screen readers are SCREAMING in digital agony right now! Accessibility? Never heard of her! 🙄

Developers spend 8 hours staring at code but will fight to the death over whether their IDE should be light or dark themed. The true holy war isn't tabs vs. spaces—it's which shade of "eye-burning white" or "void-like black" best complements your syntax highlighting. Meanwhile, the blacked-out section marked "NOT OKAY" is probably some hideous pastel monstrosity that would make even Comic Sans blush. Because nothing says "senior developer" like having extremely strong opinions about color palettes while completely ignoring the 47 merge conflicts in your repo.

My bank account is stopping me. That and the fact that my significant other would immediately file for divorce if I transformed our living room into NASA Mission Control. The hilarious reality gap between developer fantasies and financial constraints is the silent antagonist of every programmer's story. We're out here calculating if we can afford another mechanical keyboard while this setup requires a second mortgage. The irony? Most of us would just use it to run VS Code and Stack Overflow anyway.

Ah yes, JavaScript. Nature's way of warning us that something might bite. The yellow JS logo sitting there among actual venomous creatures is the perfect evolutionary adaptation - bright coloring that screams "approach with caution, side effects may include undefined behavior and callback hell." Developers have evolved to recognize this warning sign, yet we still poke it with a stick daily. Natural selection at its finest.
