That "30-minute AI interview" is the tech industry's biggest lie since "we offer competitive salaries." The meme shows what actually happens when you try to take an AI interview at home - pure chaos erupting while you're supposed to be in "a silent room with a clear voice."

Every developer who's done these knows the truth. You carefully schedule it during your lunch break, then your neighbor decides it's the perfect time to test their new chainsaw, your cat knocks over a plant, and someone starts a kitchen fire. Meanwhile, the AI is like "I didn't quite catch that, could you repeat your approach to implementing a binary search tree?"

The real coding challenge isn't the algorithm - it's maintaining your sanity while your house burns down around you.
