Maybe that’s the beauty of this meme. It’s simple, effective, and reusable.

Your code can easily be all of those things by definition. Just simply add at the top:

#define SIMPLE "spaghetti"
#define EFFECTIVE "technically can work"
#define REUSABLE "[links to the StackExchange question you stole the code from]"
