We shouldn't forget that all it takes to join the PCMR is agreeing that PC is superior. Not having a beast rig, not even necessarily having access to a computer, but sheer conviction.
If a person refuses to acknowledge PC's superiority after being confronted with objective fact, then they are a Peasant, and are worthy of being made fun of.
We're not even necessarily being satirical or tounge-in-cheek about the whole thing, PC is clearly superior. Making fun of Peasants or "worshipping GabeN" is tounge in cheek, but it's important to understand that the PCMR is mostly a serious thing.

This is something people in the master race often forgot because they got lost in it all which is part of the problem.

For me, building my PC is a cheaper/less time consuming alternative to working on cars. I still do that occasionally, but it's just so much easier to have a single day project with my PC. My previous job involved a lot of hardware repair on various desktops and notebook devices, and I miss working with my hands. This not only fills that for me, it lets me see the results and enjoy them immediately.
