Not really this but my dad has an amazing ability to set up any electronic thing in a way that is overwhelmingly complex for no reason, takes 3 hours, requires tools and frustrates him to no end. My man setting up a TV to a stereo system with a cable box and maybe a game console will end out requiring like 9 remotes used in a specific sequence that sometimes doesn't work for 'no reason' (dude technically has a computer programming degree, it's just from the days of punch cards, but he should still understand machines are deterministic). It's a pretty amazing feat. Both of my folks are amazingly skilled at making simple tasks into incredibly complicated chores.
