I want to say I had thought about the caption as kinda exclusionary when I wrote it, but decided that since the common phrase existed when it comes to rating setups I thought it would be fine, especially since this post is obviously a mockery of real setup posts. This entire post was for humour and I think the caption existed to show that.

I apologise if I offended you but I want to say that it wasn't in the aggressive manner you believe it is, and I hope next time you provide criticism to manners that are important to you that you do so with more grace and patience. Knowing the internet, I don't believe most people would have responded to your comment as respectfully as I am trying to do now.

In the end, it was a joke that I did not fully consider the implications it had and for that only I am sorry and I will do better. Please have a great weekend. Take care.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
