Laptop repair Memes

The dreaded family gathering where your entire coding career is reduced to "can you fix my printer?" The meme brilliantly mashes up Among Us with the universal software engineer experience - suddenly you're not the person who builds complex systems, you're just the designated tech support. It's like getting a PhD in neurosurgery only to have your family exclusively ask you about their headaches. The transformation from "software engineer" to "laptop repairman" happens faster than a production server crashes after you push untested code on Friday afternoon.

The eternal struggle of every CS graduate - spending four years learning algorithms, data structures, and computational theory only to be reduced to "the tech person" who can supposedly fix any electronic device within a 50-mile radius. That smug little smirk in the final panel says it all. It's the universal "I could write you a sorting algorithm that would make Donald Knuth weep with joy, but diagnosing why your laptop makes that weird clicking noise? Yeah... I'm suddenly very busy with important computer science things." The cognitive dissonance is exquisite. We're simultaneously expected to understand the deepest mysteries of computation AND why your printer only works when Mercury isn't in retrograde.

That moment when someone learns you're in "computer science" and immediately assumes you're tech support. Sure, I can reverse a binary tree, implement a neural network, and debug race conditions, but no, I have absolutely no idea why your laptop makes that weird clicking sound. I mean, I could look at it, but that would set a dangerous precedent where I become everyone's personal Geek Squad. My algorithm for handling these requests is simple: blank stare, slight smirk, change subject.
