Date With an Overcomplicated Programmer

wyd if you’re on a date with this girl but someone on twitter says god I wish there were an easier way to do this private bool IsEven(int number){ if (number == 1) return false; else if (number == 2) return true; else if (number == 3) return false; else if (number == 4) return true; else if (number == 5) return false; else if (number == 6) return true; else if (number == 7) return false; else if (number == 8) return true; else if (number == 9) return false; else if (number == 10) return true; else if (number == 11) return false; else if (number == 12) return true; else if (number == 13) return false; else if (number == 14) return true; else if (number == 15) return false; else if (number == 16) return true; else if (number == 17) return false; else if (number == 18) return true; else if (number == 19) return false; else if (number == 20) return true; else if (number == 21) return false; else if (number == 22) return true;

The meme contrasts an attractive woman on a date with an absurdly complicated block of code that determines whether a number is even. The joke is that someone requested an easier way to do a simple task, while the programmer responds with an extremely inefficient list of conditions. It is used as a reaction to overengineering, unnecessary complexity, or programmers choosing a ridiculous solution.
