Your Company's CI/CD Pipeline: A Muddy Hose in the Woods
Description
A vertical video screenshot (Reddit-watermarked, bottom right) captioned in white text on black bars: 'your company's ci/cd pipeline.' The photo shows a literal jury-rigged pipeline in a forest floor: a moss-covered green plastic pipe stub emerging from mud and leaf litter, connected to a clear flexible hose by what appears to be improvised wrapping/tape, with murky water flowing through it amid dirt, twigs, and decaying leaves. The visual metaphor lands because the contraption barely holds together yet somehow still delivers - exactly like enterprise CI/CD pipelines made of duct-taped shell scripts, deprecated plugins, flaky runners, and YAML nobody dares to touch, kept alive because 'it works, don't touch it'

It's green, it's leaking, and nobody remembers who connected it - congratulations, your build passed
It has continuous delivery; nobody specified what it should deliver.
