Programmer Turns Five Hours Into Months

Text on the meme

And that’s how you turn a five hour made with mematic task into a one and a half month task Because I’m a programmer, and that’s what we do.

What it means

A programmer stands in a workshop holding a microphone, first shown full-body and then in close-up. The joke is that programmers turn a task that should take five hours into a month and a half through overcomplication and delays. It is used as a self-deprecating reaction to programming procrastination or scope creep.
