    A lot of these responses are way too generic to belong to a fandom.

      This one is pretty specific to Factorio, although it has spread to other factory games Fandom because they’re basically all the same Fandom.

        I don’t think so, I think the term could be a lot older than Factorio.

          Factorio has been around for a while now. I can’t think of another place that term would have been used before.

            Pretty sure I heard it in a modded minecraft Yogscast episode.

            Also, there are some pretty massive factories in real life, as well.

      And yet, this generic sounding response is very specific to a fandom…
