The Coffee Maker Conspiracy

A mock investigation into why your coffee maker only works when you've already mentally given up on coffee.

BREAKING: Local coffee maker has been confirmed to operate exclusively on a reverse-psychology algorithm.

Setup: You wake up, flip the switch, nothing happens. You give up, accept black tea as your destiny, pat yourself on the back for being 'healthier.' You turn around for 30 seconds.

Punchline: That's when the machine decides TODAY is the day it works perfectly.

It's like your coffee maker placed a futures bet against you (very Kalshi energy, tbh). The moment you stop demanding it, it delivers.

Tell me your coffee maker has a personality disorder too, right?
