Sometimes setting up wi-fi feels like it requires an animal sacrifice to the elder gods.

If that's making it difficult for you to understand the comparison, I can select another. I think most folks could understand the analogy, but I'm happy to accommodate you if it's unclear.

Grilling a hamburger isn't killing a cow sorta like how an analogy is a useful illustrative tool even when not literally accurate.

See! Even a terrible analogy can get the point across.
