Uh – Oh: Mac Beach Ball of Death Pin

Not saying I’d proudly adorn myself with it in public, but on days like today when that spinning beach ball of death has threatened to freeze the faithful MacBook several times, I’d kind of like to have it nearby to recover something like a sense of humor.
Made by a “guy in his mid-twenties born, raised, and terrified of economic collapse in West Michigan” who also has a cute Mac addict button, both cost $1.00 on Etsy.

Would it make sense to say it’s clever, but not funny? BSOD jokes are funny because it was (is?) such a prevalent and vexing problem. This seems too much sour grapes, rather than any widespread problem.
I smirked, but then just felt kind of empty. it feels like an old joke repackaged by someone tortured by being too long at the bottom of the pecking order.
