          The answer is plain to those with the eyes to see it… Or something.

            I don’t get it. What’s wrong with it? If it is that clear, could you explain it to me?

              There’s nothing to explain. I guess the idea of someone who just follows Gabe Newell is funny and could be interpreted as lame. It’s not that deep.

                But that still does not answer my question as to why that is “lame” (or in other words “loser”). So in this entire conversation and reply chain, you just wasted my time? If you don’t gonna answer the question, why do you keep these “lame” replies then? I just asked a simple question, didn’t I? And if it is relaly obvious and easy to see, how does it come you can’t explain it? Seems like a paradox to me.

                  Christ… You should learn to disengage.

                    You should also learn to disengage if you have no answer and nothing to add to the discussion.

      Replace “Gabe” with “Taylor.” Celebrity worship is always lame. I can’t imagine being so obsessed with anyone that I’d make a social media account about them

      Yeah, you tell em! Sitting in the corner of your bedroom facing the corner while someone you met on craigslist has sex with your partner is something winners do too! You can’t just call someone a loser for having their lunch money stolen and wearing a t-shirt with their bullies name on it!

      Remember 2012?? Bacon narwhal! Le steam sale epic! I love Gabe! I love billionaires!

      Sounds like “Gay Boner” if you say it too fast.

        How? Maybe my pronunciation is different from yours (Germany here). I tried it out and it doesn’t sound like “Gay Boner” on my end.
