What are the silliest reasons people have given you for not wanting to try Linux? (no.lastname.nz)

The best one I've ever heard is they like the Microsoft wallpapers. Yes i told them you can use them on linux too. But they argued with me that they wouldn't be compatible.

Oh yeah, gotta love that. Some people have "Minecraft phases", I have "STK/hedgewars/teeworlds" phases. Proud owner of an AUR package for a QoL client for Teeworlds, was dead simple to make that. Unless you mean the original TuxKart (not super), in which case that's dead. And WarMux is dead (albeit still mostly playable), same with that one game that is also like a Worms clone but real time. I wish those were brought back...

Oh, and I forgot the name but there was this one tron clone that still mentions modem preferences and has some really really really low default graphics options but still has quite a few online players, I wish I didn't suck at the game...
