A picture of 'Event Tick', an unreal engine blueprint event node is shown. A woman shouts "It looks harmful!!", "I don't know why, but it does!"

Its not the delta seconds but the event tick event node.

While it can be really useful, there are a lot of things that would be better off as a timer or setting the event tick to something other than 'every frame', as there isn't usually a whole lot that absolutely needs to be checked/updated on a frame by frame basis.

Hence the meme basically saying it looks harmful but they're not sure why.
