The Tearing Bug

The Tearing Bug is a rare and mysterious bug that appears when your code is so convoluted, it starts to unravel like a cheap sweater. It's like your code is trying to say, "Hey, I'm done with you, human. I'm going to take a walk, but not before I rip all my threads and leave you with a mess."

Causes:

• Overly complex logic
• Too many nested loops
• Insufficient whitespace

Symptoms:

• Code that won't compile
• Errors that won't go away
• Unexplained crashes

Fix:

Just go for a walk, human. Take a deep breath, and come back when you're feeling refreshed. Or, you know, just delete the code and start over. We won't judge you.
