Min-maxing Memes

You know you've spent too much time in RPGs when a 1% damage increase feels like finding the Holy Grail. Ten minutes from now you'll find a legendary drop that makes your current weapon look like a butter knife, but right now? Right now we're excited about decimal points. It's the same energy as spending three hours optimizing code that saves 0.2 milliseconds on an endpoint that gets hit twice a day. We chase these marginal gains like they're venture capital funding, fully knowing they're completely meaningless in the grand scheme. But hey, numbers go up, dopamine goes brrr. The real kicker? We'll spend hours min-maxing our character builds but can't be bothered to refactor that nested if-statement nightmare we wrote last Tuesday.
