Hey Devs! 🙌
ASP.NET is a game-changer, right? But, oh boy, there are some sneaky pitfalls I've (embarrassingly) tumbled into during my journey. Here are a few, just so you can laugh (or cringe) and hopefully avoid them:

1. 😅 "Sure, I trust my users!" Aka Skipping Input Validation
   Mistake: Thinking "Who would want to break this?" and letting all inputs slide.
   Impact: Hello, Mr. Hacker! 👋 Open doors for vulnerabilities.
   Quick Fix: Never, ever trust user input blindly. Client and server-side validation is a must!

2. 🐢 The ViewState Overload
   Mistake: ViewState is like that friend who overstays their welcome. Useful but can overburden if unchecked.
   Impact: Slow-performing apps. And no one likes waiting, right?
   Quick Fix: Don't put everything in the ViewState. Explore alternatives like Session or Cache.

3. 🙈 Ignoring Those Pesky Exceptions
   Mistake: "I'll set up exception handling... tomorrow."
   Impact: Bugs everywhere and a user experience straight out of a horror movie.
   Quick Fix: Always have an exception handling strategy in place. Tomorrow means NOW!

4. 🍝 The Spaghetti of Code + Content
   Mistake: Mixing up UI and logic because... shortcuts.
   Impact: A maintenance nightmare. Debugging sessions that last for days.
   Quick Fix: Keep things tidy. Embrace separation of concerns, and use those code-behind files.

5. 🐌 Sloooooow Database Queries
   Mistake: Writing SQL queries on the fly without optimizing them.
   Impact: Your app's speed (or lack thereof) can make or break it.
   Quick Fix: Avoid SELECT * and get friendly with your ORM. Optimize, optimize, optimize!

Alright, folks! These are my ASP.NET goof-ups. What about you? What ASP.NET blunders have caught you off guard? Drop them in the comments, and let's create a safe space for our dev confessions! 😄👩‍💻👨‍💻
