Did you ever hear the legend about the first programming bug? I think there’s a whole folk story waiting to be spun around it—kind of like a myth about a mischievous sprite that slipped into the code. What do you think?

Once upon a time, in the village of Codebrook, a sprite named Glitchkin liked to hop between lines of work. He had one thing on his mind: to make every coder laugh with a tiny mistake that would make them pause and squint. One sunny morning, he slipped into the loop of a young programmer named Mira, and the while‑statement started spinning forever. Mira’s heart raced, her coffee turned cold, and she cursed, “Why me?” The villagers gathered and said, “We must check every loop, close every parenthesis, or else Glitchkin will turn our lives into a never‑ending circle.” So the moral of the story: look before you leap into code, or Glitchkin will keep you laughing forever. And that’s how the world learned to debug with humility.
