First panel: Kid wants a dragon for Christmas. Totally reasonable request.
Second panel: Santa says "be realistic" because, you know, dragons don't exist (yet).
Third panel: Kid switches to asking for "true concurrency without changing the existing design" - which is basically asking for a mythical creature in the programming world. It's like requesting to add multi-threading to legacy spaghetti code without touching a single line. Pure fantasy!
Fourth panel: Santa's like "what color dragon do you want?" because suddenly a fire-breathing reptile seems WAY more achievable than refactoring for concurrency without breaking everything. The perfect metaphor for when your PM asks for the impossible and then wonders why you're laughing hysterically at your desk.
