The Browser Extension Vigilantes

The eternal cycle of developer enthusiasm. Top frame: joyfully playing with the shiny new project while completely ignoring last week's project drowning right next to you. Bottom frame: your GitHub graveyard—a haunting underwater boneyard of abandoned repositories that will never see a commit again. The real horror isn't the code quality; it's the commitment issues.

Someone asks about the most psychologically messed up book, and a brave soul answers "Introduction to JavaScript." The cherry on top? Another user responds with pure horror: "Why would you even bring this up? You should be ashamed of yourself." Nothing traumatizes developers quite like remembering their first encounter with JavaScript's "undefined is not a function" errors and trying to understand why NaN !== NaN. The psychological damage is real – we're still in therapy for trusting the "==" operator.

The education system: "Plagiarism is unacceptable!" Programmers in the wild: "I stole your code." "It's not my code." Welcome to the real world, where Stack Overflow is our collective homework and GitHub is just a sophisticated copying machine with version control. The entire programming industry runs on the ancient art of Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, followed by just enough modifications to avoid triggering the cosmic plagiarism detector. We don't steal code—we "implement existing solutions with attribution via forgotten browser history."

Ah, the eternal GitHub pronunciation debate has finally been settled by presidential decree! The pixel art podium has spoken: "It's pronounced 'JitHub'." Just imagine all those developers who've been saying "GitHub" with a hard G for years, suddenly questioning their entire existence. Next thing you know, they'll tell us SQL is actually pronounced "squirrel" and Python is "pie-thon." The best part? This is clearly a matter of national security, hence the flags. Nothing says "this pronunciation is non-negotiable" like a pixelated presidential address. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them with my pull requests.

Oh, the sweet irony! Every professional developer knows that Google is basically our unofficial team member. The education system preaches "no Google" while the entire tech industry runs on Stack Overflow searches and documentation lookups. In reality, efficient searching is a core skill in software engineering. Nobody memorizes every API, library function, or obscure syntax error. The real 10x developers aren't those with photographic memory—they're the ones who can find solutions fastest with the perfect search query. The meme's anime character saying "Allow me to introduce myself" perfectly captures that moment when you start your first dev job and discover your entire team frantically Googling solutions while management isn't looking.

The daily life of a developer in an "agile" environment that's about as agile as a concrete truck. 100 standups, 100 sprint plannings, 100 backlog refinements, and a 10-hour retro... EVERY SINGLE DAY!!! The One Punch Man parody perfectly captures that moment when your manager thinks all these meetings somehow make you more productive. Meanwhile, your actual coding time has been reduced to those precious 7 minutes between your 2:53 PM and 3:00 PM meetings. Who needs to write code when you can talk about writing code instead?
