The eternal standoff between WinRAR and literally everyone with a computer. The most patient software in existence politely asks "Plz pay now," you smugly respond "no," and WinRAR just... accepts it with a defeated "ok." Meanwhile, the Harold meme face perfectly captures that mixture of guilt and satisfaction we feel while continuing to use premium software after the 40-day trial expired... in 2003. The greatest business model in software history: technically paid software that nobody has ever paid for, yet somehow still exists 30 years later. It's the digital equivalent of that friend who always offers to pay but secretly hopes you'll say "I got this one."
