I have a sneaking suspicion that most memes are from CS students, it all makes sense. People with jobs don't have time to make memes, get angsty about languages, or syntax issues.
I will cut someone for leaving trailing whitespace or mixing spaces and tabs, though.
last week I had misconfigured my auto-format and it was leaving commas and whitespaces. The amount of "WHAT HAVE YOU DONE???" comments I got were of the chart.
There was a linter in place, I literally could not merge unless the issues were fixed, yet people felt compelled to point them out.
