Look How Far We Can't Afford
My bank account is stopping me. That and the fact that my significant other would immediately file for divorce if I transformed our living room into NASA Mission Control. The hilarious reality gap between developer fantasies and financial constraints is the silent antagonist of every programmer's story. We're out here calculating if we can afford another mechanical keyboard while this setup requires a second mortgage. The irony? Most of us would just use it to run VS Code and Stack Overflow anyway.

The Infinite Tech Acquisition Loop
The infinite hamster wheel of tech addiction! We grind away at our keyboards to fund that shiny new mechanical keyboard with RGB lighting that will somehow make us 0.002% more productive. Then we need a faster PC to handle the keyboard's software. Then a better monitor to appreciate the PC. Then a standing desk for "health reasons." And suddenly we're working 60-hour weeks to pay off the ergonomic chair we bought because we're working 60-hour weeks. It's basically tech Stockholm syndrome with a side of capitalism.

The Bedtime Companions Of A CS Engineer
The sacred trinity of bedtime companions! Normal folks cuddle with pets, couples snuggle with partners, but CS engineers? We form a polyamorous relationship with our laptop, phone, and crushing deadline anxiety. That moment when your IDE is the last thing you see before sleep and the first thing you check after waking up. "Just one more commit before bed" turns into debugging until 3AM while your posture gradually transforms into the infamous programmer's pretzel. The true mark of a CS engineer: your devices have more consistent uptime than your sleep schedule.

Real Struggle
The multi-monitor dependency is REAL . Once you've experienced the sweet digital real estate of three screens, your productivity gets absolutely wrecked when forced back to laptop life. It's like trying to code through a keyhole. Your workflow becomes a crawl, your IDE tabs multiply like rabbits, and Alt+Tab becomes your most abused keyboard shortcut. The stretcher scene is basically your productivity being carried away on life support. Trust me, I've been there - frantically searching for HDMI adapters in hotel rooms like some kind of display junkie.
