The Microsoft Update Circus

Nothing says "we spared no expense" quite like a multi-billion dollar stadium display running on Windows. Somewhere, a sysadmin is frantically trying to remote in while 50,000 fans witness the ultimate "have you tried turning it off and on again?" moment.

It's the digital equivalent of saying "I'm never drinking again" while simultaneously texting friends to plan next weekend's bar crawl. The eternal cycle of creating executables, regretting executables, then immediately creating more executables is basically the software development circle of life.

Ah yes, the classic "let me check if your credit card is compromised by... *checks notes*... asking you to enter all your credit card details." The irony is thicker than legacy code documentation. This scam software brilliantly solves the problem of "is my credit card in a hacker's database?" by ensuring it definitely will be after you use it.
