When Ekko's game came out, the very first thing I did was make sure it ran on a virtual machine with no network.
That virtual machine was snapshotted. No matter what, I know I can always play that game, and all I need is something that can virtualize, or at least emulate, x86_64

You know full well plenty of people believe that whole-heartedly.
It's the same people telling you to buy Disney+, Paramout+, Starz+, CanadaPloos, and ESPN+.
@essie Because people actually believe it.
Quick, what's a position that people take up that you don't like? I'll make a "joke" that's dry as the fucking sahara and then make fun of you for having an opinion.

@essie I have to agree with @r000t here. The fact that it is, for you, a famous meme doesn't mean it is universally famous. Nothing on the Internet is universal. Everything is subculture-specific.
I'm a fan of dry humour myself and I didn't parse it as such. It just looked like some idiotic comment posted by some rando. The “I pay for games. So should you” part left me in doubt, but that wasn't enough to see it as a joke. Also, the “dont make me tap the sign” intro made me think it was copypasted by some dumbass who got the wrong meme.
A comment does not become automatically funny by being outlandish and stupid. Same with reactions. They're not funny simply because “they didn't get the joke.” Finding them thus is childish, if anything.
