The Sacred Driver Version Sanctuary

The instant someone discovers you work with computers, their brain immediately jumps to "tech support wizard who can fix anything with a power button." The selective hearing kicks in - they start the question, you're already mentally disconnecting. Ten years of building complex systems and mastering three programming languages, but Aunt Karen still thinks your primary skill is resurrecting her 2007 inkjet printer that's been possessed by demons since Windows Vista. The modern programmer's defense mechanism: develop the ability to tune out any sentence that begins with "Hey, so you study computers right? Can you fix my-"

The endless cycle of mod addiction strikes again! Your poor computer is basically begging for mercy like an overworked employee on their 12th straight hour. "Just one more mod" is the programmer equivalent of "just one more line of code before bed" – a dangerous lie we tell ourselves right before everything crashes spectacularly. Your PC's cooling fans are probably screaming louder than a junior dev who just pushed to production without testing.

The only customer in history to complain about getting MORE storage than they paid for! This person left a 3-star review because they ordered a 500GB Samsung SSD but received a 1TB model instead. That's like ordering a Honda and getting a Ferrari, then complaining that it goes too fast. Every developer who's ever maxed out storage during a build or Docker image download is screaming internally right now. We'd sacrifice our mechanical keyboards to the tech gods for such a "mistake."

The AUDACITY of laptop manufacturers! First they MURDERED our precious PS/2 ports, then VGA got BRUTALLY slaughtered, HDMI is bleeding out, and USB-A is literally being STABBED TO DEATH as we speak! And for what?! So the Grim Reaper of connectivity can knock on the 3.5mm jack's door next?! THE HORROR! 💀 Meanwhile, we're all frantically buying dongles like apocalypse survivors hoarding canned beans. "But it's 0.02mm thinner!" they say, as if that justifies this PORT GENOCIDE. I'm typing this from a laptop that's basically just a screen with attitude and NOTHING ELSE!

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."

Oh honey, you thought you were getting a REAL gaming laptop? *dramatic hair flip* The audacity! Nvidia's marketing department over here promising RTX 5070 with 8GB VRAM while what you ACTUALLY get is a glorified toaster with delusions of grandeur. The laptop opens up and SURPRISE - it's just a confused cat staring back at you wondering why you spent your entire paycheck on what is essentially a fancy space heater. The betrayal! The deception! The sheer DRAMA of it all!
