Next button Memes

You know that moment when a Windows installer says "The wizard will now install your software" and you think it's actually about to happen? Yeah, Gandalf knows better. That "Next" button is just the beginning of a 47-step journey through license agreements, custom installation options, toolbars you definitely don't want, and the inevitable "Do you want to make this your default browser?" question. The wizard isn't installing anything now . It's merely suggesting the possibility of installation in the distant future, after you've answered existential questions about installation directories and whether you want desktop shortcuts. Gandalf's seen some stuff—probably spent centuries clicking through setup wizards while the One Ring could've been destroyed twice over. The real magic trick is how these installers manage to turn a 5MB program into a 20-minute ordeal.
