Correlation Isn't Causation
The eternal struggle of being a programmer in a world that thinks you're basically the IT Avengers combined with a tech support hotline. Just because you can write a recursive function in your sleep doesn't mean you possess the mystical powers to commune with a possessed HP printer that's decided today is the day it stops recognizing cyan ink. Sure, you COULD probably figure it out by Googling the error code and following some sketchy forum post from 2009, but that's not the point! The point is that knowing Python doesn't automatically grant you a PhD in Hardware Necromancy. But try explaining that to your family at Thanksgiving.

According To My Experience
Oh, the AUDACITY of family members who think your programming degree doubles as a CompTIA A+ certification! Just because you can debug a recursive function at 2 AM doesn't mean you magically know why Aunt Karen's printer is possessed by demons. Sure, you COULD probably figure it out—turn it off and on again, check if it's actually plugged in, sacrifice a USB cable to the tech gods—but let's be crystal clear: your ability to architect microservices has ZERO correlation with your desire to troubleshoot hardware from 2003. The real plot twist? You'll still end up fixing it anyway because saying no to family is apparently harder than solving LeetCode hard problems.

Don't You Dare Ask Me About Your Printer
The eternal curse of being a developer - mention your job at a social gathering and suddenly you're tech support. Guy proudly announces he's a Full Stack Developer, and within seconds, he's being asked to fix a printer. The final panel showing him pulling a gun is just the mental breakdown every dev experiences when someone thinks "I build complex web applications" means "I know why your printer is making that weird noise." Printers remain the final boss that no amount of JavaScript frameworks can defeat.
