 Comment Cleaner Pro is a powerful VS Code extension for removing comments from source code files. It helps you streamline your code by efficiently removing all types of comments (line, block, and documentation) across 20+ programming languages while preserving the core functionality of your code.
 
+## The Ironic Truth
+
+> "Yes, this comment remover has comments in its source code. It's like a barber with fabulous hair." 
+
+We believe in documenting our code to help contributors, even while building a tool that removes comments. Our extension removes comments from _production code_, not development code. We're like dentists who eat candy but still brush their teeth! 😉
+
+You could say our source code lives by the motto: _"Do as I say, not as I'm coded."_
