That innocent Tower of Hanoi toy isn't just stacking rings—it's a computer science nightmare in disguise! Normal humans see a colorful children's toy, but CS students break into cold sweats remembering the recursive algorithm hell they endured implementing this deceptively simple puzzle. Nothing quite captures the trauma of debugging recursive functions like realizing your childhood toys were secretly preparing you for coding PTSD. The rings within rings within rings... it's functions calling themselves until your brain (and stack memory) overflows!
