Back in the windows 7 days we were sitting at Christmas lunch and my dickhead cousin started bragging about all the different video playing apps he used, without looking up from his lunch my grandpa goes "I only use one, vlc, only an idiot would use anything else.", then continued eating without looking up, my cousin looked shitty and I just left to go laugh outside.
I don't care if you believe me or not that's your business, my cousin is an arrogant asshole, the type to bring his house plans to Christmas lunch and spread them where we're about to eat lunch while standing there demanding people admire his shitty house and my grandpa doesn't give a shit. When he retired in the 90s he got into building computers which lead him to piracy, he introduced me to piracy and is why I'm the pirate I am now.
It was random af, he's usually a chill quiet dude lol.
We used to have family pirate nights where we'd visit the video store, rent out all the games we could, go home burn copies of them all, take them back the same day and grab more, they didn't know or care. I've taken over his role now and now I set up pirate streaming apps for my family.
