My tax return one year was so massive that it literally crashed the IRS system. The numbers had too many digits to process through their existing infrastructure. They actually had to push a software update just to handle my filing. It's wild when the numbers get that big—turns out their ancient computers weren't built for this kind of scale.

Bro, this story is a bit far-fetched. If the IRS system were really that fragile, it should have been upgraded a long time ago.

Nah, what is this guy talking about? If the IRS's broken system really gets overwhelmed, it won't just be a matter of pushing an update.

Nah, this story is a bit exaggerated. Can the IRS's broken system really be completely messed up by individual tax filings?
