Complaining About Ports When You're On Potato Hardware
THE AUDACITY! Someone's out here trying to run Cyberpunk 2077 on what's essentially a digital fossil! 💀 Imagine blaming game developers for your prehistoric Dell Optiplex that was outdated when Obama was first elected! It's like showing up to an F1 race with a horse and cart and wondering why you can't keep up. That poor machine is begging for retirement while this person is demanding it render 4K explosions. The only thing that computer can run smoothly is Windows XP and maybe—MAYBE—Minesweeper if you're not too aggressive with the clicks.

Outdated GPU Purgatory: The Window Licker's Lament
DARLING, it's the TRAGEDY of our TIMES! There you are, clutching your ancient GTX 1080 Ti like it's the last slice of pizza at a hackathon, peering through the blinds at the ray-tracing elite playing DOOM with their fancy-schmancy GPUs! The AUDACITY of game developers requiring hardware from this DECADE! Meanwhile, you're over there convincing yourself that Minecraft's blocky graphics are "an artistic choice" and that frame rates above 30 are "just showing off." The digital equivalent of watching the cool kids' party from outside while pretending you didn't want to go anyway! But honey, keep huffing that copium - those 2012 indie games aren't going to play themselves! 💅

Every Developer's Kryptonite
Just like vampires fear sunshine and Superman fears kryptonite, modern developers run screaming from COBOL code. That ancient green screen with its uppercase commands might as well be garlic to a vampire. The joke's on us though—those legacy COBOL systems still run 95% of ATM transactions and most airline booking systems. Nothing strikes fear in the heart of a 20-something React developer quite like being told "we need you to maintain this 60-year-old mainframe code." Career kryptonite indeed.

What Is God's Favorite Programming Language
God checking in on Earth only to discover his beloved COBOL is no longer the programming superstar?! THE HORROR! 😱 For the uninitiated, COBOL is that ancient programming language from the 1950s that's basically the technological equivalent of a dinosaur that REFUSES to go extinct. It's still running critical financial systems and government infrastructure because apparently rewriting that code would be like trying to perform heart surgery while skydiving. Meanwhile, God's up there clutching his pearls because JavaScript and Python have stolen his thunder. Sorry, big guy, but your precious COBOL is now just the weird grandparent of programming languages that banks can't bear to put in a retirement home!
