SWEET MOTHER OF LEGACY CODE! 😱 A Gordon Ramsay-style tech show would be the MOST SAVAGE THING EVER! Imagine him discovering your company is running Ubuntu 8.04 (released in 2008 and LONG dead) with not one but TWO backdoors AND a crypto miner stealing your electricity! That's like finding expired ingredients from the last decade AND rats in the kitchen! And owing $2 MILLION to AWS?! That's not technical debt, that's technical BANKRUPTCY! The cloud bill alone would make Gordon's veins pop out of his forehead while he screams "THIS INFRASTRUCTURE IS SO OLD IT REMEMBERS WHEN JAVASCRIPT WAS COOL THE FIRST TIME!"

OH. MY. GOD. The AUDACITY of corporate mandated "load testing" turning into a $72,000 AWS bill! 💸💸💸 That moment when your innocent little dev environment accidentally becomes Amazon's secret revenue stream! The cloud giveth and the cloud ABSOLUTELY TAKETH AWAY your entire IT budget in a single month! And that response? PERFECTION. You haven't truly experienced the cloud until you've accidentally funded Jeff Bezos' next space vacation. It's basically a rite of passage at this point! Welcome to the "I accidentally sponsored Amazon's quarterly earnings" club - membership costs exactly one heart attack when you open your AWS console! ✨

That moment when you're convinced you forgot to stop your EC2 instances before the weekend, but your friend dismisses your concern... until Monday's AWS bill arrives showing your "running" instance has been happily burning cash for 72 hours straight. Nothing says "financial trauma" quite like discovering your forgotten sandbox environment has been crunching absolutely nothing at $0.50 per hour while you were enjoying beers. Classic cloud computing tax on the forgetful.
