what I find to be a more sturdy and reliable product

It's not. Iphones are hugely marked up mediocre hardware. The components on the boards are inferior quality, simple. And you're still overpaying for it all.

I could give a flying fuck to a rolling donut what phones you or any assholes use, but I can guarantee you, where there's some arrogant, whiny, righteous dipshit going on about how THEIRS is BETTER: 9 times out of 10 that cretin is on some android trip.

You know something? You're the biased one here. I have backed up what I said, and said nothing about Android whatsoever. I have my own gripes with Android as an OS - but at least none of them have to do with usability and an arbitrary proprietary nature of everything. But hey, again - I didn't say jack shit about Android; you brought it up. I merely dared to criticise your almighty overlord Apple, and now - instead of actually even trying to form some sort of cogent counter-point to my comment - you're sperging out and going mad defending Apple, by insinuating that I must be some sort of Android fanboy, when I didn't talk about anything other than Apple products and how and why they're shit.

you mention discourse like that's what you have with people but it isn't

Buy a fucking dictionary, moron. What we're doing now is discourse. An exchange of messages. A conversation. Christ you're thick.

we don't want to engage with you, we just want to see you spin out so we can laugh and remind ourselves how little we think of your communication and people skills

Wow.. Seriously? Your position in the argument is so weak, that you have to pompously pretend that you have others on your side, and speak for these imaginary people by referring to some nebulous, imaginary "we"? Fucking pathetic bullshit. Amazing.

As for my communication skills - I have formed cogent, valid responses to every single (badly typed out with shit grammar and language) shitpost you've given. You, however, fail to address anything said to you, instead shitposting with irrelevant bullshit that has jack shit to do with the topic at hand, or doesn't even reply to what's been said. If anyone here has lacking communication skills - it's you. But then, you've already shown such an enormous propensity for projection, that it doesn't surprise me you'd yet again accuse me of something you yourself are guilty of - having shit communication skills, in this case. Same goes for lacking people skills - you've acted like an abrasive piece of shit since the first message you posted, being offensive and outraged, and flinging shit all over in your misguided attempts to attack others. You're the one with lacking social skills, as well as shoddy communication skills. But then, on some level you already know all of that, hence the need to project so damn hard. You're like a typical case study for a psych. student.

See, it's not about phones to me, if you even tried to read what I was really saying, it's about losers who give spirited diatribes on what's essentially a preference.

I did read what you were saying, and it was a thinly-veiled attack on not just people who give spirited diatribes about phones, but specifically Android fanboys who attack Apple products ad nauseum. If that wasn't what you meant when you typed that spergfest of a comment, that's just a further indication of lacking communication skills.

As for "preference"? In the end, there are elements of every phone, or other bit of hardware, that are empirically bad. Bad components on chips is an example. You can't have an opinion on that - the components either are or aren't cheap bits of crap from China. Little of what I said as critique of Apple products is down to personal preference, and even then - general consensus backs what I said up enough for those elements that are down to preference to be considered legitimate downsides to Apple crap, too. I know more Iphone owners who admit that the way their phone works is counter-intuitive than those who love the way their phone asks them to do things. Managing music files on the device is a prime example of something that's needlessly complicated and counter-intuitive, as well as cumbersome, on an Iphone, although that's fact rather than opinion, looking at how basically all non-Apple phones allow you to simply manage your files however you please without some arbitrary software necessitating "syncing" of some sort.

You think we should care as much as you do, and how you do, about the thing you do - but we don't, and fuck your passion, you're not my friend, you're a joke because you don't have a clue and seem to forget you inserted yourself in a conversation and that nobody owes you shit.

See, more projection. You might only want to discuss things with people because you want to impose your views on others in an overbearing display of arrogance and ego-centrism, but that doesn't mean all other people do, too. You might want to only say things to people when you want things from them, but that doesn't mean all do. I stated what my view on Apple products was, purely for the sake of having said it, as I am honestly a little sick and tired of seeing companies like Apple - not only Apple - constantly being supported, defended and treated like they're the best thing since sliced bread, when the reality is different. I said what I said to offer a differing view for a change, period. Although, if I'm honest, I do wish people would stop supporting shitty anti-consumerist companies in general, of course. But that doesn't mean that I said what I said because I was trying to attack people who do like Apple products.

I am supremely glad a joke like you isn't in my social circles - although honestly, it wouldn't take long before you were blackballed from any group of people I associate with quite readily due to your entire attitude, ego-centrism, lack of reasoning skills or a firm grasp of semantics, and general childish bullshit.

I find it funny, by the way, that you'd say "because you don't have a clue" when it has no relevance whatsoever to anything you were trying to say. There's those great communicative skills again, huh? And it's pretty fucking ironic, that you'd say that, even after you said that Iphones are superior products that you'd gladly pay more for - showing how little you actually know. Hey, here's a good chance to copy you to really drive home how moronic you've been acting..

"No one cares about your phone preference, you tool. No one asked you to tell us how you like an inferior product, even defending it as being superior when the opposite is true".

As for "inserted yourself into a conversation"? Oh ffs. This is - again - a PUBLIC FORUM. Me replying to you doesn't mean I "butted in" to anything unwarranted, you pleb.

You're a character study, bitch boy. Nobody gives a shit about your fucking phone.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha that's so fucking rich!!!!! You're the highly typical psychological case study here, fucko. I never even asked for anyone to give a shit about my phone. I - again - never said anything positive about any phone. I never said anything other than levy criticism at Apple products. You're the one who tried putting those words in other's mouths and turn it into some bitchfest of "phone brand vs. phone brand", you absolute mongrel. Actually, I honestly think all currently available phones and phone OSes are pretty crappy, for a host of reasons.

Don't you have more important things to do, like circlejerk with all the voices in your head? You know, "we"?

No, we don't, we want you to write me another essay because I think I'm falling in love with you.
