The infinite loop of closing one bug and opening three more

We've all been there. It’s Sunday morning, you look at the ticket backlog, and there is that one minor bug that should take exactly five minutes to fix.
Two hours later, your local environment is broken, the repository has merge conflicts, and you have accidentally created three new issues that didn't exist before.
At this point, I’m convinced that software development isn't about writing clean code. It's about managing the chaos of your own creations. Debugging is just like being the detective in a movie where you are also the murderer.
How do you handle those days when your quick fixes turn into a full-scale rebuild? Do you push through or just close the laptop and try again on Monday?
Drop your worst "quick fix" horror stories below. I need to know I'm not the only one fighting the compiler today.
