Catch 22

Catch 22
Software companies really out here asking you to stop pirating their $600 software while simultaneously demanding you buy it at full price. Like, my guy, if I had $600 lying around, I wouldn't be pirating it in the first place. The circular logic is chef's kiss. It's giving "entry-level position requiring 5 years of experience" energy. Fun fact: Studies have shown that software pirates often become paying customers once they can actually afford it. Turns out, people who learned Photoshop through "alternative means" in college tend to push for their companies to buy legitimate licenses later. But sure, keep yelling at broke students instead of offering reasonable pricing tiers.

Bug Report Tail Recursion

Bug Report Tail Recursion
The infinite loop of despair that is modern tech support. First, you find a problem with a service. Then, like a responsible citizen of the digital realm, you attempt to report it. But wait! The universe has a cruel sense of humor—the very form you need to submit to report the bug... has a bug itself. So you're stuck in this beautiful recursive nightmare where you can't report the bug because of another bug that you can't report because of the bug you were trying to report in the first place. It's like needing scissors to open a package of scissors. Whoever designed this system probably also enjoys watching people try to exit vim for the first time.
