The Eternal Struggle
You know that feeling when you’ve been debugging for hours and it turns out to be a missing semicolon?
Yeah. We’ve all been there.
The Debug Journey
- Hour 1: “This should be an easy fix”
- Hour 2: “Maybe I need to refactor everything”
- Hour 3: “Is this even possible?”
- Hour 4: finds semicolon 😭
The Stages of Debug Grief
- Denial: “The code is fine, it’s probably the compiler”
- Anger: aggressively types print statements
- Bargaining: “I’ll never write bad code again if this works”
- Depression: “Maybe I should become a farmer”
- Acceptance: “Oh, it’s just a semicolon”
More memes coming soon! Stay debugging, friends.
