Based On Personal Experience

You know you've made questionable life choices when helping your aunt figure out why her printer won't print feels harder than debugging a race condition in production. The decision matrix here is simple: endure actual physical pain OR explain for the 47th time that no, she can't download more RAM, and yes, she needs to turn it off AND on again. The sweat on that forehead? That's the realization that you'll need to remote desktop into a Windows XP machine that hasn't been updated since 2009, navigate through 47 browser toolbars, and somehow explain what a PDF is without losing your sanity. At least brutal torture has a defined end time.
