The Four Horsemen Of Academic Procrastination
The four horsemen of grad student procrastination: YouTube rabbit holes, rage-quitting video games, wrestling with MATLAB code until 3 AM, and recording yourself explaining concepts you don't understand yet. The research paper deadline approaches while your only accomplishment is perfecting the syntax for a single plot function.

The Parenthesis Paradox
Scientists getting increasingly excited as they add more parentheses to their code, only to be utterly devastated when they find that tiny syntax error! The progression from mild curiosity to absolute glee and then the soul-crushing realization that one missing period breaks everything is the programming equivalent of a Greek tragedy. Every coder knows that moment of silent despair when your beautiful algorithm collapses because of a microscopic mistake. It's like building a house of cards in a hurricane!

Matlab With The Unbeatable Offer
The quintessential MATLAB experience: you sacrifice hours debugging cryptic code while MATLAB rewards you with increasingly creative error messages. My personal favorite? "Array indices must be positive integers or logical values." Translation: your code is technically correct but MATLAB decided to interpret it in the most chaotic way possible. The relationship is purely transactional - your sanity for its mathematical prowess. Still beats writing those matrix operations by hand though.

The Computational Hunger Games
The mathematical hunger games have claimed another victim! Dad's not winning—he's being consumed by the computational apocalypse. Surrounded by MATLAB, Wolfram, LaTeX, Desmos, Matcad, and Sublime Text 3, he's descended into the ninth circle of numerical hell that every engineer and scientist knows too well. That moment when your code breaks, your equations mock you, and your will to live is inversely proportional to your debugging time. The child's innocent "Dad are u winning?" is the universe's cruelest joke. No child, Dad isn't winning. Dad is discovering why math was invented by ancient civilizations as a sophisticated form of torture.
