Update And Shutdown, Yeah, Right

You: "I need to leave in 5 minutes, let me just shut down real quick."

Windows: "How about I make you late for literally everything instead?"

You politely ask for a shutdown like a civilized human being, and Windows just looks you dead in the eye and goes "Best I can do is update and restart (estimate: 4 min)" - which is Windows-speak for "see you in 45 minutes, your meeting is toast, and I'm gonna restart at least three times just for funsies." That 4-minute estimate has the same energy as "I'll be ready in 5 minutes" from someone who hasn't even picked out their outfit yet. The audacity! The betrayal! You wanted a clean shutdown, not a whole Windows Update saga with multiple plot twists.
