People who get angry about an emulator not having the right capitalization on a menu twelve layers deep is shitty.

There will always be people in both cases thinking they are entitled to the work of others. There will be nice people who do nice by others too, rarely but that happens. We live in a wonderful world and not being an a…hole about things makes it better.
