Overheating Memes

Desktop gaming PC owners sweating bullets over 65°C temperatures while laptop gamers casually shrug off 90°C like it's nothing. After 15 years in tech, I've learned that laptop users aren't braver - they're just numb to the pain. Nothing says "I've accepted my fate" like coding on a machine that doubles as a stovetop. The real irony? We spend $3000 on gaming rigs with fancy cooling systems then panic at temperatures that laptops consider "just warming up." Meanwhile, laptop CPUs are basically tiny supernovas held together by thermal throttling and prayer.

That spider living in your PC case for two years just got evicted by a nuclear thermal event. Turns out cranking those settings to 4K ultra transforms your $3000 gaming rig into a functional space heater. The spider probably thought Chernobyl was happening all over again. Your GPU is now technically classified as a weapon of mass destruction in 12 countries. But hey, those ray-traced reflections look nice for the 8 minutes before thermal throttling kicks in.
