Chaos In The GPU Streets, Deals In The CPU Sheets

Oh. My. GOD. Someone has constructed the most MAGNIFICENT throne in existence using nothing but discarded keyboards! 👑 This is what happens when you hoard every single keyboard since 1997 instead of throwing them away "just in case." The Iron Throne? PLEASE. The Keyboard Throne reigns supreme in the Seven Kingdoms of Cubicle Land, where the one who sits upon it commands absolute power over the Git repository. Whoever occupies this monstrosity clearly has the authority to reject ALL pull requests without explanation. Bow down, peasants!

The ultimate irony of working in tech! While enthusiasts fill their homes with smart fridges that judge their midnight snacking habits, actual tech workers maintain a strictly adversarial relationship with the one printer they reluctantly own. That mysterious grinding noise at 2:14 AM? Definitely the printer plotting its revenge. The paranoia is justified—anyone who's debugged a printer driver knows these devices operate on dark magic rather than actual protocols. The gun is just proper threat modeling for inevitable printer rebellion.

The existential crisis of modern gaming: you've got 128GB of storage, 127GB of games you love, and a new 60GB title you desperately want to play. Suddenly you're Negan from The Walking Dead, forcing yourself to choose which beloved digital child gets sacrificed to the storage gods. "But I might play it again someday!" you whisper, as you reluctantly hover over the uninstall button for that RPG you haven't touched in 18 months. The psychological warfare between attachment and practicality is more brutal than any boss fight.

The great GPU wars continue. Intel Arc arrives as "A New Hope" in December 2024, only for NVIDIA to immediately crush that hope with RTX 5070 in January as "The Empire Strikes Back." Then AMD swoops in with RX 9070 XT in March as "Return of the Jedi." Just another predictable chapter in the never-ending saga where your wallet is the true casualty. The Force is strong with price gouging.

Top panel: Guy literally crying over his RTX 4090 because it can't push enough frames on his ultra-expensive monitor. Meanwhile, bottom panel: Chad with a 3060 Ti just vibing with his 1080p setup that'll run Doom Eternal at max settings until the heat death of the universe. The real irony? Top guy probably only plays Valorant and checks email. Bottom guy is just happy his PC boots without catching fire.

That moment when someone learns you're in "computer science" and immediately assumes you're tech support. Sure, I can reverse a binary tree, implement a neural network, and debug race conditions, but no, I have absolutely no idea why your laptop makes that weird clicking sound. I mean, I could look at it, but that would set a dangerous precedent where I become everyone's personal Geek Squad. My algorithm for handling these requests is simple: blank stare, slight smirk, change subject.
