The Cobbler's Children Have No Smart Home

Looking at your screen under a microscope and seeing a dead subpixel is like finding out your most reliable team member quit without notice. That little RGB soldier fought valiantly to display your hideous CSS color choices for years, only to burn out while rendering yet another gradient button that could've just been flat. Pour one out for the fallen homie—he never complained about your 16.7 million color requests, not even once.

Have you tried turning it off and on again? That glass panel is clearly running Windows and experiencing unprecedented stability. The fact it didn't shatter on impact means you've discovered the rarest bug of all - reliable Microsoft hardware . Try installing updates or running npm install - that'll break anything. If all else fails, just tell it you're migrating to Linux and watch it self-destruct out of spite.

THE SCANDAL OF THE CENTURY! RGB PC owners have been LYING to us all along! 💅 They post these GLAMOROUS close-up shots of their rainbow light shows on Reddit like they're hosting a personal EDM festival inside their NZXT case. But the TRUTH? They're sitting in the dark like some sort of disco-loving gremlin, illuminated only by their unicorn vomit PC while their mom yells "TURN OFF THOSE LIGHTS, YOU'RE WASTING ELECTRICITY!" The reality is less "high-tech battlestation" and more "radioactive nightlight for grown adults who refuse to admit they're afraid of the dark." But hey, at least your frame rates look fabulous in 16.8 million colors! 💁‍♀️

When your boss says they hired a "technical expert" to fix your slow computer. Sure enough, here's the "RAM upgrade" in progress – a cat literally trying to get inside the PC case. Bet they're charging you $200/hour for this "specialized service." Next up: the cat will chase the mouse cursor and call it "pointer optimization."

Nvidia's gone from "graphics card company" to "AI overlord" so fast that gamers are getting dumped like last year's Steam sale impulse buys. Remember when GPUs were for rendering Skyrim mods? Now they're calculating the probability of human extinction while costing more than your first car. The relationship status between gamers and Nvidia has officially changed to "it's complicated" – or rather, "it's computing" the next trillion-parameter model. Your RTX 4090 isn't rendering Cyberpunk anymore; it's rendering humanity obsolete.

The eternal IT paradox strikes again! Poor Eric drove TWO HOURS just to press a power button because three different people swore the server was already running. Every sysadmin just felt that in their soul. This is why we have trust issues and why "Have you tried turning it off and on again?" isn't just a question—it's a lifestyle. Next time someone asks why IT folks seem grumpy, just remember they've probably made similar pilgrimages to the server shrine only to perform the sacred one-finger ritual of resurrection.
