I think a more common quote that is used often would be more suited to an answer for the above:

"If I have to explain you just wouldn't understand......"

It means work harder so you can buy genuine HD chrome wingnuts and crap.

If I have to explain why this is ridiculous, you wouldn't understand.

Marketing cliches, folks, that all they are; or more precisely that's what they have become.
