A hacker walks into a bar and says, "I'd like a buffer overflow, hold the integer overflow."

The bartender replies, "Sorry, we only serve local variables here. But can I interest you in a stack overflow instead?"

The hacker chuckles and says, "Make it a recursive function on the rocks. I want to see how deep the rabbit hole goes before it crashes."

The bartender nods, "Alright, but don't blame me when you hit the base case and can't tail-optimize your way back out!"
