I Don't Think I Can Go Back Guys

BEHOLD! The pinnacle of gaming ergonomics - a BUS SEAT mounted on wheels! Because nothing says "I'm a serious developer" like coding on what is essentially public transportation furniture! The ultimate budget hack for those who spend 18 hours debugging and want that authentic "I fell asleep on the bus and woke up in another city" experience. The patterned fabric even comes pre-installed with mysterious stains of unknown origin - for that EXTRA immersive gameplay! Who needs $500 gaming chairs when you can feel like you're commuting to work while never leaving your room?!

The perfect corporate ouroboros doesn't exi— Nvidia just created the world's most expensive power strip that plugs into itself. $100 billion flows from Nvidia to OpenAI, only to flow right back to Nvidia for more GPUs. It's like watching a tech company play hot potato with its own money, except the potato is made of gold and nobody's actually passing it. Jensen Huang is basically that kid who gives you $20 to buy his lemonade, then brags about making $20 in sales. Except the lemonade costs $100 billion and requires a data center to cool it.

Girls with time machine: emotional family reunions and preventing historical tragedies. Boys with time machine: straight to the computer store circa 2019 to hoard DDR4 before the great RAM shortage apocalypse of 2020-2022. You know your priorities are completely warped when you'd rather stockpile RGB memory sticks than meet your ancestors. But honestly? After watching RAM prices triple during the pandemic and crypto mining boom, can you blame us? That 32GB kit went from $120 to $400 faster than you can say "supply chain issues." The real tragedy is we'd probably go back and still buy the wrong speed or incompatible timings because we didn't check the motherboard QVL. Time travel can't fix poor planning.

The great port extinction of our time! This meme perfectly captures the devolution of laptop design from "Swiss Army knife of connectivity" to "hope you enjoy carrying dongles for the rest of your life." Modern laptops went from having every port imaginable to basically two identical USB-C ports that require you to carry an adapter the size of a small country. Minimalism is great until you need to connect literally anything. The bottom MacBook is practically begging "please sir, may I have some more ports?" while the top one is like "we heard you like dongles, so we removed everything else."

That cat's face says it all. "You spent $400 on RGB fans when your code still has memory leaks? I've watched you restart that Docker container 17 times today." The true supervisor of this PC build isn't the human—it's the feline QA engineer judging every cable management decision with those unblinking eyes. The NZXT case will look pristine for exactly 3 days before it becomes the world's most expensive cat bed.

Black Friday "deals" on RAM prices are basically just retailers putting on clown makeup. You watch the same DDR5 kit climb from $134k to $156k over the weeks leading up to Black Friday, then they slap a "MEGA SALE" sticker on it at $629k and expect you to be grateful. It's like they're not even trying anymore—just straight up insulting your intelligence while you're standing there with your wallet out like William Wallace ready to charge into financial ruin for some memory sticks. The pricing strategy is so transparent it hurts. They're literally training us to wait for "sales" that cost 4x more than the regular price. Peak capitalism meets peak absurdity.
