Stop Using The Word "Bricked" If You Don't Know What It Means

Ah, the ancient IT support psychological warfare technique! Instead of embarrassing users with the classic "is it plugged in?" question (which it never is), this genius IT veteran gives them a dignified escape route. "Unplug the cable, blow on it dramatically like it's a Nintendo cartridge from 1992, and plug it back in." Pure brilliance! The user gets to pretend they're performing critical maintenance rather than admitting they never plugged the damn thing in to begin with. It's the tech support equivalent of letting someone "find" their glasses on top of their own head. Kindness through deception - the cornerstone of all healthy IT-user relationships!

The eternal battle between developers and printers continues! This poor dev thought mentioning his profession would somehow help with his printer problems, but instead triggered a PTSD episode in his therapist. Ten years of coding experience and I still whisper sweet nothings to my printer before every job. "Please work, I'll update your drivers, I promise." Printers are the final boss that no amount of Stack Overflow can help you defeat.

Ah yes, that first BIOS encounter. One minute you're just trying to fix your aunt's laptop, the next you're pressing Delete like a maniac during boot, and suddenly—BAM—you're a hacker in The Matrix. Green text on black background, cryptic settings about things called "AHCI" and "PCI latency," and you have absolutely no idea what you're doing but feel like you could launch nuclear missiles with one wrong move. The "Tehc" guy perfectly captures that "I have ascended beyond mere mortals" feeling while actually being one misclick away from bricking the system.

Ah, the classic ASCII art burn from the dial-up era! Remember when 16MB of RAM was considered excessive? This meme is throwing shade at Windows for being so bloated that even its simplest game needed ridiculous system requirements. It's the 90s equivalent of saying "Chrome eats RAM for breakfast" but with more retro charm. The ASCII troll face just makes it *chef's kiss* - perfectly capturing that smug feeling when you'd dunk on Windows users while running your lean Linux distro on hardware that belonged in a museum.

Finally collected all the Infinity Stones of IT support. With these power buttons in my possession, I can now solve 90% of all tech problems by simply telling people to "turn it off and on again" while feeling smugly superior. The other 10% require the legendary artifact known as "actually reading the error message."

The brutal honesty of this pie chart hits harder than a production bug on Friday at 4:59 PM. It's the perfect representation of the average programmer's life—split perfectly between two equally depressing realities. We spend thousands on overpriced GPUs but can't seem to allocate any resources to our social compiler. The irony is that even if we somehow acquired both mythical artifacts, we'd still be too busy debugging someone else's legacy code to enjoy either one.
