Virgin vs Chad meme.
On the left, virgin, captioned "Virgin API consumer," wearing a blue long sleeve shirt and black pants and shoes, and holding a mac book. There is a collar and chain around his neck, and a ball and chains attached to his feet. Numerous text bubbles and logos surround him: "JSON", "Fears HTML," "Limited to what the API can do," "Has to identify himself even for read-only APIs," "A slave to the API provider," "Json," "Tokens," "has to agree to Terms of Service and follow the the rules," "API keys," "Thinks that he is making his life easier," "Has to worry about quota."
On the right, chad, captioned "Chad Independent Scraper," wearing an orange tank-top (with the HTML 5 logo on it), blue pants, and brown shoes, and holding two different types of paint scrapers, one in each (outstretched) hand. Numerous text bubbles and logos surround him: "follows no rules, doesn't agree to any terms of service," Selenium logo, "has no limitations can access any data he wants," cURL logo, "His software is always independent," "Doesn't care about changes in policies," unknown logo, Python Requests library logo, "Websites can do nothing to stop him," "Can do whatever he wants," "handles HTML like a real Chad," "Doesn't fear HTML," "can work anonymously," Python Requests-HTML library logo, "Even Javascript can't stop him."
