Woot for figuring it out.
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

For anyone still following my Excel ordeal, I wound up simply pulling the last offline version where the pivot tables still worked, and replacing the data with values from the live version, and then saving the now-updated working version back to Sharepoint. I feel like this:

I kind of want you to send me the wackaloon 8/25/15 version so I can poke at it, but I really should not let that suck up my life like I know it would...

I feel your pain, Jessica. Glad you found a work around. And HELL YES on the xkcd.

That xkcd describes so much of my career.
There are a few software packages out there where the companies behind them call me when they get errors they don't understand because I'm likely to have run into them and found ways around them. It means that even the authors of the software aren't often helpful for me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Usually I wait a few days to update to a new iOS (in case there are issues), but I grabbed the update as soon as it was available because I needed to update iOS on my phone before the WatchOS. But then they delayed the release of WatchOS 2 due to a lingering bug.
Bastards!

They say it was a lingering bug, but it was really just to screw with you.

1st new thing I noticed in iOS 9--the keyboard is in lower-case unless you are typing a capital letter.
2nd new thing--the display gets much darker in a dark room than it used to.
3rd new thing--sometimes I accidentally call up the multitasking screen.
