Suddenly you're questioning every life decision that led to this moment, including whether compressed air should be classified as a weapon of mass destruction.

The formal bunny announcement is basically your brain accepting the inevitable doom after you hear that click sound that wasn't there before. Murphy's Law of computing: the probability of catastrophic failure is directly proportional to how little time you have available.
