Few specialties enjoy sharing jokes in meme form quite like those who code do. There could be a number of reasons for this, most of which are related to the average programmer's familiarity with and fondness for computers. However, we also cannot discount the fact that coding is an often frustrating experience, and anybody who engages with it usually needs a means to let off some steam now and then. No doubt about it, plenty of the programming memes that exist come from a place of rage and despair, but doesn't a lot of great art? We need to appreciate these silly little images for all that they provide to those who know their way around a programming language or several (or they pretend to, at least). Memes about the coding process are sometimes painfully relatable, and other times, they are merely a humorous way to pass a couple of minutes.
