waynewex Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Seriously hate Mac fanboys. I really do. The adverts. The trendy hipsters that use them. It all makes me boil. Here's one thing that PC users can do that Mac users can't (old one but still a good one): http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=macs_cant What do you guys think of the Mac?

burnside Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Can i have a large coke with mine .... Big Mac that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zq29 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I have 3 macs and have ever had a problem with any of them. Fanboys are annoying regardless of what they're fans of, but people that always bitch about fanboys are more annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanboys are annoying regardless of what they're fans of, but people that always bitch about fanboys are more annoying. In my opinion, fanboys need to be put in their place at every possible moment. I repeat... every possible moment. I will, however, be quite perfectly honest and say that I usually don't bitch about fanboys... but still, I certainly wouldn't knock anyone for doing so, or refer to them as "more annoying". Fanboys to me are like fundamentalists... extremist fractious little creatures that need to stfu. And anyone that works towards helping them do that is A-ok in my book. Also... to the person who said "burn" or whatever... That burn would only apply to me if I was a fanatical fanboy basher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maq Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I don't have anything against Mac users. I just grew up with PC's and never had a reason to change to anything else. I have an iPhone, does that count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.josh Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Fanboys are annoying regardless of what they're fans of, but people that always bitch about fanboys are more annoying. I agree. I mean, I can understand laughing about it, but annoyed enough to hate it and get "boiled" by it and post hate messages about it? Are they doing anything to harm you? Do you throw molotov cocktails at trekkie conventions? Lose sleep at night because of all the insidious renaissance festivals going on? Send death threats to churches? Maybe (and this is just a suggestion) your anger stems from jealousy, for not having found something to believe in or at least enjoy as much as other people.

GingerRobot Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Fanboys to me are like fundamentalists... extremist fractious little creatures that need to stfu.

waynewex Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 I take that back. You seem to be a fanboy of hating fanboys. Paradoxical... It took you over six minutes to come up with that one. The sad thing is that after you wrote it, you probably smiled to yourself, thinking "HA. NOW I'VE GOT EM".

That's where the whole "I take that back..." part came in. Thanks for playing. Please try again. I think what Ginger probably meant was, responding to fanaticism with fanaticism. Which is pretty much what I said when I said you are a fanboy of hating fanboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.josh Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I appreciate the level of 'deepness' you're trying to accredit me with, but I'm afraid I would not be able to sleep at night, knowing that I have been put on a pedestal under false assumptions. Not too long ago, you got all pissy because Dan and I decided to assume things about posts you made, instead of just taking it at face value. Perhaps you should take your own advice, here. I'd sure hate to consider you as one to adhere to something as base as hypocrisy. If you want to justify being fanatic about hating fanboys, then by all means, go ahead. Most fanatics aren't just blindly extremist about their views; they, too, justify their behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I got all "pissy" because you and Dan decided to lynch me because of the fact that my post relied heavily on the reader being able to assume what I was talking about. Also, how am I a fanatic? I don't actually literally hate fanboys, just so you know. People use the word "hate" everyday to describe their casual dislike of trivial things.
