Well, now I know what to get Harlan for Christmas.
All stats point to iPhone users making more money, get laid more, etc. Not saiyng theres a correlation, but one could argue that the douchebaggery of guys like RG and Ziggy is not likely to get you laid, where as my smooth talking gets me laid constantly!
That's a really judgmental statement. I'm not smug, I'm quite cheap. I never go to Starbucks, I drive an SUV, I loathe soccer, and I didn't vote for Obama. Boom, that just throws your argument out the window. Sure, some hipsters use Macs... a lot of hipsters also use linux because it's cool and counter-culture.
I could just as easily say people who still enjoy using Windows are southern redneck hicks who drive Suburbans, don't understand basic ecnomics, enjoy sleeping with their sister, and drive pickup trucks.
Both are moronic, stupid statements to make.
Whiskey bar is a fine place. Never had any problems with it. Too many frat boys who use Windows there. The typical mac user is getting pussy by the truckload, so they don't need to rape when it's at home waiting for them.Ever been to the Whiskey Bar in cathedral square? Its got a lot going for it including a manly name, and a great setup. Only problem is that somewhere along the way, intolerable spray-tanned douchbags with faux-hawks decided to make it their place to drink vodka and date rape women. I feel so bad for the owner who probably thought their higher prices and badass selection of American booze would lead to a clientele of gentlemen with beards sipping cowboy juice. The Whiskey Bar tragedy is exactly what happened with Apple. The costumers wrecked it for me.
The average iPhone user is a male in there 30s earning over 80k. I do agree the women enjoy iPhones (beautiful UI and wonderful device). I can't explain the gays, but my two gay friends do have iPhone 4s LOL. They don't have it because they're gay, they have it because they're smart.That said, I fully understand that I'm not in Apple's targeted demographic as a linux-wielding lumberjack. Over half of the population is women+gay guys and those people buy hip and trendy things so Apple as a business won't run out of customers.
No, really. They have it because they're gay. Just go over to Dupont Circle and look around. By the way, gay men also tend to make a lot of money because they don't have family priorities messing with their careers. I've decided that you're really not this stupid. You're just trying to see how idiotic you can make us believe you are. By the way. You don't fit the profile you describe because you don't even have a fucking iPhone. You don't know the user experience because you don't have the user experience except vicariously. And if every one of your friends has broken their crystal just by dropping their phone, then they're shit devices. I've dropped both my Droid and HTC a few times with no ill effect whatsoever. What kind of cheap crap are you trying to sell us?
You are what is annoying about Apple and why the brand will eventually fail. The fact of a trend is that the appeal is that not everyone has it. As soon as the market hits critical mass, the "cool" trendy appeal wears off and people drop it for the next new thing. But you won't listen to that just like you won't listen to anyone else who might have a criticism about your precious baby, even though the whole company damn near tanked once already. That's fine, but if you're not willing to look at your stock objectively, you will eventually lose your shirt. And that's fine. It's your money to lose.

So I guess if you desperately need to get laid, buy the iPhone. I need to get laid less, so I think I'll stick with the Android.
Not as much as I'd like.
Let's dissect this sentence by sentence... Homosexuals have iPhones because they're gay. What the hell? How judgmental can you be? What is the rationalization for this?
Gay men tend to make more money because they don't have families? Really? That's what you're going with? Really? Maybe you should stop trying to rationalize your laziness. If you've got swagger you've got swagger. Simple as that.
My work phone is an iPhone. I also have an iPod touch, and an iPad from my company. Child please.I've decided that you're really not this stupid. You're just trying to see how idiotic you can make us believe you are. By the way. You don't fit the profile you describe because you don't even have a fucking iPhone. You don't know the user experience because you don't have the user experience except vicariously. And if every one of your friends has broken their crystal just by dropping their phone, then they're shit devices. I've dropped both my Droid and HTC a few times with no ill effect whatsoever. What kind of cheap crap are you trying to sell us?
iPhones have the highest quality glass available. Gorilla glass. You said it yourself that your phone broke from a fall, so STFU.
I would pit my intelligence and certainly knowledge of consumer electronics against yours any day of the week. I'm a leading software developer. What do you do besides pretending to know about electronics and failing to form a compelling argument?
People don't buy Apple because it's cool. They buy it because of the user experience. By the time everyone has the current thing, Apple will have the next thing out. By now, the iPhone is way beyond cool and is now an essential device in so many peoples lives. Look at fortune 500 adoption. 95% are phasing in the iPhone for employee smart phones. Bye-bye RIM. Bye-bye Android.You are what is annoying about Apple and why the brand will eventually fail. The fact of a trend is that the appeal is that not everyone has it.

Absolutely the way the stock keeps going up! Another 2.5% today. I've doubled my money in two years. Have you doubled your money the past two years? You would be climaxing as well if you were. AAPL is going to allow me to pay off a 300k house in 4 years.
For how dumb you like to tell me that I am, I find it very ironic because I follow a fair amount of the financial advice that you offered up.

Gays congragate at a place called dupont circle? thats is funny! Dupont (the paint company) used to sponser Jeff Gordon, who in Nascar circles was thought to be gay. His team was even given the nickname Rainbow Warriors.
now that dupont has pulled his sponsership, I wonder if Apple will pick him up?

Well I'm not an expert on everyone's personal life but I know a little bit. You're engaged, so your sex life has as much to do with diamond jewelry as it does with any smooth talking. Can't blame a guy for using the big guns though. RG is married with kids and if I recall has gotten fantastic results through a life-changing diet and exercise routine. I also infer he's a pretty generous guy. I'd guess that his people-pleasing nature coupled with his new physique have Mrs. RG whipped into a sex-crazed frenzy. Ziggy is a 100 lb woman with a million posts on a football forum. She'll never want for sex as long as she's in America. iphone users are also older which is directly correlated to making more money. Not a good thing for Apple since kids that prefer Android grow into adults who prefer Android.
Of course its a judgmental statement, It was an honest projection of what I think in my head when I make a snap judgment on a hypothetical person. Even if we pretend that you are an iphone user because you undoubtedly will be soon...You say you're not smug but two sentences earlier you make a statement that while humorous, reeks of self-satisfaction. The rest of the statement isn't meant to describe you but instead the opposite of me. I drink my coffee black, bitter, and too hot. I'd rather saw off my nads with a kite string than watch soccer. The beauty of judging Apple users by their cars is that I'm never wrong, apple products come with car stickers and every Prius practically comes with one. 1 and 4 chance on any Honda Element or VW Jetta. Nobody admits to voting for Obama, it happened though.
My criticisms of Whiskey Bar regulars were totally separate from my those of Apple fans. It was simply meant to show how a good idea can be ruined for the masses by having its dominant clientele think that they are the cast of Gossip Girl. Ok now my criticisms aren't separate anymore.

I had it all written out. I just can't do it. Partial, believe what you want to believe. I know that I could show you live shit bacteria in the earpiece and you'd call it beneficial bacteria that aids hearing.

Not true. That's exactly what you're doing. You're saying the problems with an Android phone are it's features! A few examples: It's 8MP camera is superior the iPhone (it's not). It's screen is superior to the iPhone (it's not). It's smarter to plug in to a computer to synch photos then do it wirelessly (it's not). It's cheaper (in build quality certainly, in price it's not any more or less expensive).
I would venture a guess that most Mac users don't drive a VW or a Honda. I don't have the stats obviously, but this thread leads me to believe your stereotype is off base. The Mac guys I know are all car guys and all seem to drive BMWs.
