Is That Bad? Windows 11 Start Menu Edition

VLC Media Player isn't just software—it's a samurai warrior that slays every file format known to mankind. While other players cower in fear at obscure codecs, VLC stands there confidently wearing a traffic cone as a hat because it knows no file can defeat it. That .mkv with weird subtitles? That corrupted .mp4 everyone gave up on? That ancient .rm file from 2003? VLC just unsheathes its sword and whispers, "Bring it." The cone isn't a warning sign—it's a crown.

Every Linux evangelist swears their distro can do "everything" and is "super convenient" until someone asks the most basic question imaginable. Signing a PDF? That simple task your grandma does on Windows without thinking? Suddenly you're knee-deep in terminal commands, installing dependencies, reading StackOverflow threads from 2009, and questioning every life decision that led you here. The beauty here is the instant realization that they've been caught in their own hype. "Modern distros are very convenient" immediately crumbles when faced with real-world office tasks.

The ultimate corporate irony. McAfee, the company that's supposed to protect your computer, managed to crash the entire world with a botched update in 2010. Then their CTO bounces to start CrowdStrike—which is now a cybersecurity giant worth billions. For those who don't know the backstory: that 2010 update misidentified a critical Windows file as malware and deleted it from thousands of computers worldwide. Corporate networks collapsed. Hospitals went offline. Absolute chaos. Fast forward to today, and CrowdStrike is doing the exact same thing but with fancier marketing slides. The circle of tech life continues...

What people hear: I can resolve any tech issue you have ever or will ever have on any machine that exists in this universe. I am jacked into the Matrix at all times. I am the IT god. Look upon me and despair. What I mean: Sometimes I try to tell the computer to do something and I cry when it doesn't work. Source: gadsworth 1,923 notes 17
