(The "Windows" slices of the pies are entirely made up by Baldur's Gate 3, which also runs well over Linux)

Mine is not an argument asserting that people think games can't run on Linux, mine is a mockery of the people who do so (I know several).

I find you insufferable too, don't worry

You are mocking a straw-man. These people you refer to number in the dozens

I must've gotten lucky with my quarter of a dozen friends who do that...

Or they were making excuses

Oh, it's the Linux-preaching guy again. He always tries to get us to switch to Linux. We just say "sorry mate, we can't game on Linux" when we see him, he usually leaves us alone after that.

OP's friends until now

look dude, you were friends with Steve and he died in 91, and he taught us to be more patient with you than you deserve. We don't care that you're on the spectrum, this is not okay. Every single time we go out you're on that Linux shit. Every. Single. Fucking. Time. We're tired of your shit, we don't want to hear from you again, you can keep your Linux and shove it up your ass. Just stop bothering us about it.
