Please, I've been pirating on C64 before I even got the concept of pirating.
Oohhh someone was born earlier and that makes them the coolest guy ever! "Please" lol.
Jerk-off motion/eye-roll combo.
Umm, didn't mean to deride you, sorry that I wasn't clear enough about that, I should've been more precise. What I meant to say was that I was pirating before I knew what pirating even meant. I was not old enough at the time and it was in the good old times of C64 when people weren't generally aware of piracy.
The "please" at the beginning of a statement (not a question) like that is typically used to patronize or condescend, usually only used when being hostile or dismissive. If English isn't your first language I can understand the misunderstanding.
