Bring Back Dumb Tech
Ah, the dystopian future we've built ourselves! Smart beds that need AWS to function properly is peak 21st century nonsense. Imagine spending $3000 on a bed that suddenly decides to turn into a George Foreman grill because some server farm in Virginia had a hiccup. This is why my grandpa's wooden bed frame from 1962 remains undefeated. Zero cloud dependencies, zero chance of waking up at a 45-degree angle because a DevOps intern pushed to production on a Friday afternoon. Remember when "it just works" meant something actually worked? Now it means "it just works until the next outage, then you're sleeping in a hot dog toaster."

When Your Toilet Needs Wi-Fi To Flush
The classic tale of "I told you so" but with toilets held hostage! Some genius company decided their smart toilets should have absolutely zero fallback mechanisms—because who needs to flush when the internet's down, right? This CTO is living every developer's revenge fantasy. After being forced to implement a design they knew was flawed, they get to watch the tech director panic as people literally can't flush their toilets without WiFi. The cherry on top? Those "Skynet mode" robot vacuums. Nothing says "I designed this properly" like your cleaning appliance becoming sentient during a server outage. This is why we put manual overrides on critical infrastructure, folks—unless you enjoy explaining to executives why they need a bucket to use their $5000 toilet.
