New level of douchery, freaking Apple sticker on your car. (1 Viewer)

[hxperson]

It's one of the great ironies of the world.

Apple rose to fame and gained fanboy nerds because they were so different, revolutionary, anti-establishment (and a great product). They WERE the alternative. Corporate "the man" IBM, or rebel, free spirit Apple.

And somehow, it all got turned around. Today you have the lemmings who love Apple to be "different" all the while, walking toward the same cliff.

Nothing quite like being different, just like everybody else.

Open-source Linux is the true free-spirited rebel, at least until it gets it's mass appeal by being properly branded and packaged the American way.

I dunno...I like apple products fine but just the ecosystem drives me nuts, and and I think a lot of the hate comes from that perhaps rather than any anti-populous sentiment.

You just can't do anything with it.

For example, right now I have a roughly 300 GB of music collection, of which half of is only in FLAC format. I spent over 3 hours last night converting FLAC's into MP3's (while trying to keep the fiiles organized), just so that I can load the music onto iTunes so that I can put it on my wife and I's iPhones - and I'm only half way done. I'm wasting over 6 hours of my life just to be able to put music onto my iPhone.

I know there are ways to read and put FLAC files onto the iPhone, but this is also cumbersome and storage intensive as, unlike my android phones, loading the music onto my iPhone isn't as simple as dragging and dropping the files onto my 64gb microSD card. I want to like Apple- I have an iPhone, 2 iPads, and a Mac Mini, but stuff like this (which happens all the time) seriously annoys me.

A buddy of mine found these little (screw) stickers that could be stuck on over the little (heart) on bumper stickers, thereby making the "I (heart) my schnauzer" sticker read, well, you get idea...what fun!

Who does this? You don't see people sporting Google, Dell, Samsung, or stickers decorating the rear of their vehicle

Mrs. Bats. She took it to a really bad level, she did the rear window family sticker thing entirely with Apple logo stickers on her car.

Wait...what?

Know how you see the family stickers with mom dad three kids and a cat in the rear windows? Well she put a big Apple(me), medium Apple(her) and two small Apples(kids). It's pretty bad.

I think that your admonition is proof enough that this is true but for some reason I feel the need to see a picture of this travesty.

What about "in memory of..." stickers??

Those get under my skin for some reason. I get that it's meant to be a loving tribute, but should be a private matter IMO. Strikes me as trying too hard to elicit sympathy.

I was really hoping that she had somehow put arms and legs and faces on them, but this is still pretty amazing.

Wow. I have to ask, honest question here. WTF is she thinking? I mean, seriously, what is her thought process with this one?

Awesome!

ETA - As dorky as it is, I think this is light years ahead of the typical family stickers people put on their cars.

She's a dork!!! She always thought the real family stickers were cute but wanted to be different. One day she found her stack of Apple decals and the light bulb went off. She says it shows her love of her family and Apple in one place and she finally got to do something with the stupid decals.

Of course. How do you think she got so many decals?! Freaking ipads all over the house.

I wasn't sure how old the kids were. Old enough to give them iPads I guess?

Meh, I've fine with my giant NOFEAR sticker that completely covers my rear window

I've never had an apple decal on any vehicle. Have always tossed the stickers.

What about "in memory of..." stickers??

I was thinking about getting one of these for someone in my family tree from centuries ago.
