CAPEX (capital expenses) and OPEX (operating expenses) are different budget categories. In many cases, the tax treatment differs, too.

I have a similar story -- many moons ago I was brought in as a developer on a 50 developer project. Except the customer didn't have a PC for me yet -- they had exceeded the budget for hardware for that month, so I had to wait.
Each day I was assigned to the PC of a person who was out that day. I had to install the S/W I needed to work in the morning, and before I left, I restored the PC to its original state. We tracked hours by task, so I knew at the end of the month that I spent half of my time setting up and restoring PCs.
At that time a dev PC was $2,000 USD ... my monthly bill rate was $8,000. Double the cost of a PC was spent on setup and restoration.
Yeah, I understand about budgets all too well; it still feels like a foolish way to waste money.

Little does she know it's an L1 cache for fast random access to my frequently used clothes in O(1) time.
I'll get my coat in O(1) time.

Tell her that it's a L2 Wash-through cache and that the laundry bin is for Dirty items.

Two hard problems in computer science are cache validation and naming things. I suspect you're losing the cache validation problem, while your girlfriend has mastered the naming one.

I'm reminded of a (true) story from 20+ years ago. A recently-divorced co-worker of mine was complaining that since he was again a bachelor, he let a big pile of clothes accumulate on his bedroom floor starting in the previous Winter. After a year of the pile getting bigger (with his Summer clothes on top of it), he was complaining he now had to dig deeper into it to find his Winter clothes he wore the previous year.
I suggested he just take the entire pile and flip it upside-down.

Dispose of all of your clothes except for two of each. The clothing is either on your body or in the laundry.

Nah, Jack Reacher has the solution. Buy new clothes every few days, toss what you had on in the garbage.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

I considered mentioning Reacher, but most of us didn't get quite as bloody on a normal day.
As an aside, I spent a good part of the past year reading all the Jack Reacher books I could get. As of this past weekend, I'm caught up.

Is the latest one better than the previous, "No Plan B"? I thought that was the weakest Reacher Novel. I have it in hardback but has to resort to audiobook to get through it.
