    Eh… I get the joke, but using Arch is about loving computing. All the other OSes have removed the human element of computing. Arch still lets you control and administer your computer, which is good fun for weirdos like me.

      Wait. Am I not allowed to mess with stuff, use the terminal, compile, and all those things in Mint!?

      Call the manager. I want my money back!

        Of course you can. But in Arch you must do a lot of things that are optional in other distros, and you install your packages explicitly, only including what you want.

            Meh, Arch users like it. Plus not having stuff you don’t want or don’t use on your OS makes it snappier and easier to update and maintain.

                  Someone should invent drain holes for that situation.
