    It is.

    Yeah but those are for ppl too stupid to game on the PC so who cares? Fuck 'em.

    Stupid means you can't always have nice things and the nice things you do have are not because of you but because ppl a lot smarter than you made them for you. The masses of humanity are a drag to the minority who actually create and invent and produce. Useless eaters as the conspiracy types call them. Consumers is the veiled form.
