Oh and stop using stupid analogies about bakers, cars, paintings, whatever.

Don't use physical objects for a problem about digital entities and intellectual property...you can't explain digital piracy with physical objects.
Why not?  What makes digital different then Analog other then the fact that it's easier to copy.

The truth is.  While piracy is still wrong since that's the way people who make games make their living....

This isn't how people who make games should be making there living.

The only analogy that comes even remotely close is counterfeiting.  And "nonprofit counterfeiting" is a pretty damn good analogy, actually ... if only someone would use it.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
