Wishlist Memes

The skeleton of every Steam user, faithfully converting wishlist items into digital dust since the dawn of time. That wishlist is basically a graveyard where good intentions go to die. We tell ourselves "I'll buy it when it's on sale" but then we're too busy playing the same three games we've had since 2012. The wishlist is just a monument to our gaming FOMO – the digital equivalent of buying a treadmill that becomes an expensive clothes hanger.

The eternal struggle of indie game devs on Reddit: First panel, they post "SUPPORT INDIE DEVELOPERS" with noble intentions. Second panel, they follow up with "MY GAME IS WISHLIST IF IT APPEALS TO YOU!" - a perfectly reasonable request. Third and fourth panels? The same person who was just preaching about supporting indies is now glaring with the fury of a thousand compiler errors. The cognitive dissonance of wanting indie games to succeed... unless they're being promoted in their Reddit feed. It's like saying "I love open source" but then blocking all GitHub notification emails.

Ah, the eternal struggle of PC gamers waiting for the perfect discount. If it's not at least 90% off, might as well be full price. We'll just stay in bed, refreshing Steam every 8 minutes, waiting for that sweet indie game to hit rock-bottom pricing. Because paying $3.50 instead of $0.50 for a game we'll play for 200 hours is clearly financial irresponsibility.
