The Three Stages Of PC Build Grief
Initial panic: "Oh god, my $3000 custom build is DOA!" Brief relief: "Wait, I'm an idiot. I didn't plug it in." Existential dread: "I've plugged it in and... nothing. Time to question every component choice, life decision, and whether I should've just bought a pre-built like my non-technical friends suggested."

Be Very Afraid
Nothing quite like that moment when you realize your innocent little Git commit just wiped out three weeks of work across seventeen branches. Sure, Git is supposed to save us from ourselves, but sometimes it just gives us a bigger shovel to dig our own graves. The best part? That split second where you're frantically Googling "how to undo git push force" while your team's Slack channel lights up like a Christmas tree.

AI Overlords Can't Even Identify A Cat
Oh. My. GOD! The absolute DRAMA of people with zero AI knowledge screeching about robot overlords while actual neural networks are over here labeling cats as dogs! 💀 The existential threat of AI is apparently a computer that can't tell the difference between basic pets! World domination? Honey, it can't even master a preschool-level animal identification task! Skynet isn't happening when your fancy algorithm thinks fluffy white cats are canines. But sure, keep panicking about the robot apocalypse while developers are just trying to make their models recognize basic objects correctly!

Who In Here Is Older Than The Y2K Bug
Ah, the sticker that launched a thousand panic attacks. For the youngsters: computers used to store years as two digits to save precious memory. So 1999 was just "99" in code. When 2000 hit, systems would roll over to "00" and potentially think it was 1900, causing chaos with calculations, dates, and potentially launching nuclear missiles (or so the media claimed). The solution? Turn everything off and hope for the best. Spoiler alert: we survived, but Best Buy made a killing selling these stickers to terrified boomers who thought their toasters might become sentient.

AI Will Not Hesitate (To Create Job Security)
First half: "AI will destroy all programming jobs! Web dev is dead! DSA and MERN are obsolete! Only learn ML and chase trends! Stop coding!" Plot twist: "The more people panic and abandon ship, the more job security for those of us who know better." Classic fearmongering followed by the actual 4D chess move. Nothing creates better job security than convincing your competition to quit. The tech industry's version of "This beach is totally haunted, you should leave... alone... with all your picnic supplies."
