I Keep Telling Myself I'll Quit My Job One Day To Make Games

The oldest trick in the book still claims victims in 2070! For the uninitiated, Alt+F4 is the universal Windows shortcut to immediately close your current application - no questions asked, no saves prompted. It's the digital equivalent of pulling the power cord. What makes this golden is the generational warfare. Some kid thinks they're clever trolling grandpa with the oldest prank in computing, not realizing this veteran was executing keyboard combos when the kid's parents were still figuring out how to use a sippy cup. The future may have neural interfaces and quantum computing, but the classics never die - just like the game you were playing when you hit Alt+F4.

The AUDACITY of JavaScript haters when Lua developers are RIGHT THERE! 😱 Lua devs sitting in the corner with their 1-indexed arrays and "nil" instead of null, nervously sweating and praying nobody notices their quirks while everyone's busy roasting JavaScript. It's like watching someone get away with murder while the cops are distracted by a jaywalker. The side-eye is INTENSE because honey, when your language is primarily known for Roblox and WoW addons, maybe don't throw stones from your glass gaming engine!

The eternal developer dilemma, now in gaming form. In 2025, we'll still be debating whether to throw more hardware at the problem or actually fix the code. Spoiler alert: someone's just gonna release another 500GB day-one patch and call it "optimization." Meanwhile, your $3000 GPU will struggle to render a puddle because some junior dev hardcoded the reflection algorithm to use π=3.

THE ABSOLUTE DRAMA of troubleshooting graphics issues! 💀 That moment when you've checked EVERYTHING else and the horrifying realization dawns on you that it's the DRIVERS. The drivers are ALWAYS the culprit! It's like being a detective in a murder mystery where the butler did it... again! And yet we spend 3 hours checking game files, reinstalling, sacrificing a mechanical keyboard to the PC gods, only to discover what we knew deep in our traumatized developer souls all along. The cursed NVIDIA/AMD update strikes again! The House reference is just *chef's kiss* perfect because diagnosing PC problems requires the same level of medical genius minus the Vicodin addiction (though after 5 hours of debugging, I'm not ruling it out).

The eternal struggle of every web dev! Can't find the perfect game? Just build it yourself! Because obviously knowing HTML means you're basically a Unity expert too, right? 😂 The skull whispering "Do it yourself" is basically every project manager after you mention any problem. And that last line about knowing one language means knowing them all? Yeah, that's what we tell ourselves right before diving into a new framework with nothing but Stack Overflow and pure delusion as our guides. The confidence-to-competence ratio in web dev is truly a masterpiece of human imagination!

The eternal RGB hardware divide: hardcore gamers who've spent hours troubleshooting driver conflicts and BIOS issues just to make their fancy lights work properly, versus the sweet summer children who just think "ooh, rainbow computer." Every time I see a new RGB component hit the market, I can feel my blood pressure rising. Sure, they look nice in product photos, but nobody mentions the proprietary software that'll crash your system, the incompatibilities between brands, or how they'll randomly reset to default rainbow puke during important presentations. Yet here I am, still buying them. Maybe I'm the real clown.
