Dream setup Memes

The classic teenage PC build saga. Kid discovers PC Part Picker, immediately sorts by "Price: High-Low," and suddenly has a 2000W beast that could probably mine Bitcoin and heat a small village simultaneously. Meanwhile, their poor parents' credit card is somewhere crying in a corner. We've all been there – dreaming of hardware we absolutely don't need but desperately want. That PC isn't running Minecraft any better than a $800 build, but try telling that to a 13-year-old who just discovered what "enthusiast-grade" means.

The duality of a programmer's existence in one perfect image. On "Weeding Day" we're in our natural habitat—pajama pants, hoodie, looking like we just crawled out of a cave after a 72-hour debugging session. But when that RTX 4090 and 64GB RAM finally arrive? Suddenly we're suited up like we're attending our code's wedding. Nothing transforms a developer faster than new hardware. The irony is we'll be right back in those pajamas within 24 hours, but for one glorious moment, we're James Bond installing drivers.
