Truth.
Love the Oatmeal. Fun fact, it is because of the Oatmeal that I believe I could take on 36 baboons armed only with a giant dildo before succumbing to their attacks. |

I don’t like making plans for the day. Because then the word "premeditated" gets thrown around in the courtroom.

Meh. Just if you’re an obsessed fanboy. Otherwise, you just like them and just buy a newer one when your current one dies. And not necessarily the latest version.
I had a couple of friends who went through the fanboy phase in their 20s. |

Recently I saw a movie I had been wanting to see for awhile called Iron Sky the coming race.
(Godawful movie just for the record. There's a scene where they are running from lizard person Margaret Thatcher and Bin Ladin and it's boring as shit.) One of the plot elements is The Jobbists. People who have escalated Apple products to a religion. I think you could make an interesting movie out of that element alone. |

It’s… probably not as bad as you think it is.

Until we get a new "killer app" I don't see that changing much. Not sure what it will be. My money is and has been on augmented reality in some way or form. |

For me It’s typically buy, use and never think about for years because it just works. Replace once it’s broken or nearly broken with newer model.

So, according to the cartoon The Oatmeal experienced all this. ...including the gargling part?

Eh.
I did upgrade to a 15 pro max a few months ago. Prior to that I’d had my 12 for several years. There’s maybe three apps in total that I paid for. I’ve had my iPad Pro for about three years now. With the Magic Keyboard it’s pretty much replaced my laptop. Prior to that I had another iPad for years. I’ve also had the watch and airpods for about three years now. Android sux. I’ve had them in the past and won’t go back. I like how all my crap works together seamlessly and don’t really give a damn about widgets. I don’t want to tinker with my phone. I just want to pick it up and use it. |

My iphone screen is cracked, the speakers are fucked, can't talk to anyone with it without using a headset, battery's not good.
Still haven't bothered to replace it yet since it still does what I need it to do. Which is mostly using it for apps related to work. And to shitpost online. |

I'm waiting on a screen assy for my 6s because I broke one of the ribbon cables when changing batteries. I'm currently using my backup 6 until then. I'd like to upgrade, however I cannot justify $300 for a better device to be spied on with.

Funny and not too far from the truth for a lot of people. Apple product prices (new and refurbished) just amaze me how high they are for what you actually get.
It's absolutely ridiculous what the masses are willing to pay for a trendy product because it came from apple and does some cool stuff but isn't worth even half what they cost. |

I have no idea what the hell I am doing. My last words will probably be, "Well hell ... that didn't work."

I guess not many people want them anymore since I keep seeing ads on tv saying to just come in and trade your damaged iPhone for a free new one. Mines damaged and I still haven’t even bothered to do that..

I guess I’m not a fanboy. Last 3 phones were 10x, 12 plus and 14 pro max. My next one likely will be a 16 whatever. 😂
Yet before the 10x my last phone was 6+. I buy features, not models. |

I've owned a 6S and a 13. I guess that means I'll own an iPhone 20 next or XX or 10100 or whatever they call it.
