@theMaintainer I feel your pain. Know: you are not alone 😦

@danzig666 Coming back to see a project you actually gave 1-2 fucks about being utterly destroyed by code written in heiroglyphs and by satans daughter is the worst part of this job.

@cursee In this case I could.. but not always depending on how bad his other code relies on said plugin
When frontend is ready before backend
FrontEnd vs BackEnd
Source: CatOnMat.net
A frontend dev asked for my assistance in writing a tricky helper function, told him i'd be back in 5, as I was just heading out the door for a cup of coffee.
Came back a little later, maybe 10 minutes instead of 5, and he says:
"Nevermind, I solved it by installing plugin XYZ v4"
Checked out the codebase for said plugin afterwards, and discovers it's around ~30MB of code, and adds a shit ton of "premium version" ads to the backend.
YOU FUCKING TWATFACE! YOUR LAZY FUCKTRUMPET ASS COULDN'T WAIT 5 MORE MINUTES?!!
I NOW HAVE THE MISFORTUNE OF REWRITING YOUR ABYSMAL DISASTER, OR DEAL WITH THIS PIECE OF SHITWARE..
