It's not you, it's me

This is a single panel reaction meme. The top of the meme displays text reading 'how it feels to refund a steam game under the reason "it's not fun"'.

This is a 3-panel comic meme using the popular boardroom meeting suggestion format to satirize how video game companies handle piracy and competition from platforms like Steam. In the first panel, a panicked executive asks the team how to deal with Steam and game pirates. In the second panel, three team members give suggestions: the first two suggest aggressive, punitive measures (lawsuits and strict anti-piracy measures), while the third suggests the obvious solution: improving the company's own services to be good enough that people don't want to pirate or use other platforms. In the final panel, the executive reacts angrily to the sensible suggestion, and the person who gave the good suggestion is thrown out of a high-rise office window, illustrating that game companies refuse to accept the obvious correct solution and instead cling to ineffective, customer-hostile anti-piracy tactics.

This is a two-panel reaction meme using a scene from the US sitcom *The Office*. In the top panel, character Dwight Schrute smiles, with overlaid text labeling him as "Me opening a ticket with steam support", and another text box reading "Support resolving the issue within 5 seconds". In the bottom panel, Dwight looks shocked and panicked as he checks his watch, with the expletive "F**k" overlaid at the bottom. The joke plays on the common expectation that video game platform support teams are very slow to respond, so the unexpectedly fast resolution from Steam Support leaves the user shocked and caught off guard.

A large hand, dressed in a white sleeve and red glove, is shown holding a black gun pointed towards the character, implying a violent or decisive resolution.

The top panel displays the Steam platform logo at the top, with text below reading 'Steam is a monopoly! I'm leaving it!' as the character Jerry walks toward the exit of the Steam-branded corridor. The bottom panel has the same background and Steam logo, but Jerry is now walking back into the corridor, with text below reading 'OK then, that was always allowed.'
