android vs ios

Got into a really irritating conversation with someone today. In my mind, I was screaming "SHUT UP SHUT UP" everytime the guy opened his mouth.

It was so trivial.

But he got so angry. WTF. Android vs iOS. Seriously?  I am more interested in reading the corporations legislation upside down than listening to you rant on and on about how much ios sucks.

But today, I realised it's not just him.  There are heaps of like-minded people (ios/android).  They're so annoying. Just because I use an iPhone, it doesn't mean I LOVE it, or I hate Android with a passion.  Some android lovers are like... furious bible bashers. Sad but true. They target me because I have an iphone :(

I was playing with instagram in class and another guy was like "Hey iSheep, why do you even use instacrap? everyone uses the same filters".

I don't like explaining myself to anyone - I don't have to justify my decision and quite frankly, I didn't even ask for his opinion.

"blah blah blah android is better, we could upload photos from our albums straight to social networking sites waaaaaaay before iphone had instagram blah blah"

I don't care.

I just told him iOS is just more convenient and compatible with my work email. I also wasn't very informed about android when I got my phone, SO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT THAT?

He then went off on a semi tangent talking about how you can check emails on phones. (for normal emails? yeah der, but I said work. I'm sure when I got my phone, work emails were only available on blackberry - then later the app "Good" came out on ios only.  Things might be different now. Just might).

I don't do this often, because I'm generally quite friendly and relatively nice, but I glared at him from the corner of my eye. "Can you just stop talking?  I want to listen to the tutor talk about Turquand's case and Constructive notice".

AND YOU KNOW WHAT HE SAID?

"Typical iPhone user".


On a lighter note, I made another friend sitting on the other side of me. He's from Cambodia and can speak Teochew, Khmer, Mandarin and English. So cool.

Apparently if you're an international student who wants to get PR in Australia, you have to get band A's in all your subjects, have a full time position, work full time for 2 years and some other things.

The easier way, of course, is to get married to a citizen. Haha!

Anyway, I just had to release all that pent up frustration somewhere.  Dear android people, you can tell me how your phone works, and what's different, but please don't assume I am an Apple fan. I can't guarantee I won't stick my fist in the face of the next person who does.

Happy Tuesday!

PS.  Have you guys heard JB's Boyfriend?  Doesn't he remind you of Jesse McCartney? Haha. Ahh.
