Relatives 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 ultimate self-preservation tactic. When a relative discovers you're "good with computers," you're suddenly the designated IT department for every printer jam and Facebook password reset until the end of time. Saying "no" despite having a CS degree is like having a panic button for family gatherings. It's not lying, it's strategic incompetence - the only firewall that actually works against tech support requests.
