I don't understand what you all are doing with your mice. I've had mine for years, and the one before it, years. I only changed because I wanted to upgrade, too.

Meanwhile I'm always on Discord with my buddy complaining that his mouse broke, again. This mf fingers must weigh a fk ton bruh.

I just like to middle-click things. I opened a Logitech mouse once and found out that the bridge that presses the button internally is way thinner than a toothpick and my frail little fingers are stronger than it for inexplicable reasons. :(

If it's a G502/702, they've got a very fucky scroll wheel & middle click; it's actually a lemon, but since nothing else works with the wireless pads they're the only options.

lots of people smack their mice on the table out of rage.

Do that a lot, and they will not last very long

I wish it were my unmanageable rage, but it's usually a regular old click that does them in. Maybe I have superhuman strength in my index finger and haven't noticed it.
