The Five Stages Of GPU Grief
The eternal GPU upgrade cycle: a tragicomedy in four acts. First, you couldn't get an RTX 3080 because of COVID shortages. Then the 4080 was unobtainable thanks to crypto miners. Now the 5080 is being devoured by AI companies with bottomless pockets. Meanwhile, your ancient GTX 1080 is wheezing through another year while you progress through the five stages of GPU grief—from hopeful patience to the final acceptance that even if they made enough GPUs, your bank account would still say "insufficient funds." The wojak's increasingly haggard face is basically what happens when you check Newegg prices every day for half a decade.

Those Were The Days!
Ah, the sweet delusion of the elderly PC builder. Remember when $1000 could get you a beast of a machine? Now that same budget barely covers a decent graphics card after you've sold a kidney on the black market. The chip shortage, crypto miners, and "gamer aesthetics" tax have turned PC building into a luxury hobby that requires a financial advisor. Meanwhile, the younger generation just pats us on the back and humors our ramblings about the good old days when we weren't choosing between rent and a new CPU.

The AI Money Laundering Triangle
OH. MY. GOD. The tech industry's most dramatic love triangle has formed! 💸 NVIDIA, Oracle, and OpenAI are just passing HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS back and forth like it's Monopoly money while the rest of us cry in our ramen noodles! The meme shows these tech giants in a circular money-laundering scheme that would make any financial regulator FAINT. NVIDIA sells chips to everyone, OpenAI buys datacenters, Oracle buys chips - and they're ALL crying tears of joy while swimming in cash! Meanwhile, the tweet at the bottom announces NVIDIA throwing another $10B at Anthropic because apparently there wasn't enough AI money madness already! The tech bubble isn't just inflating - it's practically SCREAMING in helium!

Soon™: The Tech Industry's Favorite Timeline
The eternal tech paradox captured in four panels: hardware prices skyrocketing while everyone's distracted by AI hype that never quite delivers. Left side: "GPU, RAM & SSD prices all going up" - the grim reality hitting your wallet. Right side: "A.I. bubble will pop any day now tho" followed by the sobering realization "A.I. bubble... pop?" That "Soon™" title is chef's kiss - the universal developer promise that's been keeping us waiting since the first sprint planning meeting. Just like that affordable RTX 5090 or the AI that was supposed to replace your job by now.

Hands Up Nothing Will Beat Its Legacy!
OMG, the AUDACITY of Death coming for the GTX 1060 only to discover we're all STILL clinging to it like it's the last slice of pizza at 3am! 💀 In this economy? With those GPU prices? HONEY, PLEASE! We'll be running Cyberpunk at 17 fps on medium settings until the heat death of the universe and LOVING EVERY MINUTE OF IT! The Grim Reaper showing up all dramatic only to find out we're too broke and stubborn to upgrade is the most relatable tech tragedy of our generation!

The Only PC I Can Afford In This Economy
Remember when we thought the GPU shortage was bad? Fast forward to 2025 where a junior dev's entire salary buys you this luxury stone-crafted setup with genuine smile-based UI. The irony is this rock PC probably runs Windows 11 better than my actual machine. At least it's not constantly pestering you about Microsoft account login—the stone age had its perks. Honestly, with cloud computing prices skyrocketing faster than housing, this might be the most economically sound dev environment. Bonus: it doubles as home decor that says "I've completely given up on affording actual tech."

The Only Nvidia Product You Can Actually Afford
OMG! While gamers are selling kidneys for GPUs, Denny's is over here serving up the ONLY Nvidia product you can actually afford! 😱 For a mere $4.93, you too can experience "powerfully irresistible" technology - just don't expect it to run Cyberpunk! The "Inspired by a Legend, Built for Breakfast" tagline is sending me! Sure, your pancakes won't have ray tracing capabilities, but at least they're "in stock" and won't require camping outside Micro Center at 3am! The desperation of hardware enthusiasts has reached BREAKFAST LEVELS, people!
