but not before I can acquire a nice case of the clap.
My iphone bricked during a firmware update that itunes has been practically begging me to do everytime I want to hear a fucking song, so now, inconvenienced by not having a phone I had to drive 40 minutes to the lovely landfill dubbed Providence, Rhode Island to seek out the elusive Apple store. I filled this one smug motherfucker in with my story while he adjusted his pretentious-intellectual-but-still-sensitive emo faggot frames, and feigned a clue.
"Uhhhh, well this is a bit of a quandry now isn't it? HAHAHA"
I swear, this guy cocked his head back about 80 degrees, looked a good 9 inches up in my eye and let that one fly. I wanted to be such a fucking dick to him -- maybe bring up how his mother didn't love him enough, or that his virginity is hidden under his greasy fucking mop-top, or even about how 5 foot 6 really is short regardless of age or average height, and that people like me really do take great pleasure in literally looking down on him and the top of his little tiny head -- but at that point I still thought I had a chance these fucks could do something along the lines of fixing my fucking expensive piece of apple shit.
"Let me try a little diagnostic here," he said. He plugged the thing into one of the macs and opened itunes to do a factory restore, ignoring what I told him about me trying this at home about 20 times.
"...This isn't looking good."
"...Nope, theres nothing I can do. Hardware problem, have you looked at the 3Gs? It's nice. You said you had a PC right? That could also be your issue. HAHAHA Just playing, man."
If you had a wife I'd be "just playing" with her.
I really couldn't articulate anything back to the guy. I got a tingly sensation in my brain and a firey warmth that ascended my spine as if I took one too many bad ecstasy pills. If I could have seen my own pupils, they'd have been deep, arterial red judging from the way the short smug little man removed himself from my presence. At that moment yesterday afternoon I felt closer to hell than I ever have before.
I wasn't even going to write more than the first line of this post, but that Steve Jobs and his cult organization just gets my ears all steamy, and for that reason I would like to invite him to suck my big chlamydia flavored dick.

You said you had a PC right? That could also be your issue.
I can't believe he actually said that! What a dick. These mac users actually believe their own hype.
It almost sounds like you entered a cult and not an Apple store.

You said you had a PC right? That could also be your issue.
I use this line all the time, but it's, "You said you had a Mac right? That could also be your issue."

Thank you blackra1n.

Fixed my problems, upgraded me to newest firmware (3.1.2), unlocked me and jailbroke me. Apple doesn't seem to like that though because all my fucking contacts, pictures, music, texts, apps, videos and settings are gone. Awesome!! Iphones can't even read the contacts off the sim card so I'm SOL. At least I can receive calls now!
More and more I miss the old days with my candybar Nokia. That thing was a beast.

This thread speaks to my heart. Glad you at least got it working again, mate. That shit's too expensive to have break because of something that was their fault.
-
So there wasn't any attempt to actually find a resolution? It was just like "Yeah, that sucks man....um....you should buy a 3GS"?

Apple makes the worst headphones in the history of the universe. I could shit better headphones. And I mean that.
-
Yeah, what the fuck is up with that?
-
That's just so you're forced to go buy real headphones after laying out all that dough for an iPod. Maybe Apple's in bed with Bose.
-
Haha. Now here's the other thing I don't get: They've been selling these things by themselves for years and they're not cheap. Are people buying them?
-
Bose has become another iconic name, like Apple. That's why I associate them together: overly expensive for what you get, with way too loyal of a following. When Sandy gave me an iPod Nano, she also gave me a set of $90 Bose earphones to go along with it. She had 3 of those sets! She uses one herself. Yeah, they're the best-sounding bud-style earphones I've heard, but (1) I prefer the over-the-ear phones, and (2) they shouldn't cost more than half as much. She also has these noise-cancelling full-fledged headphones, which I use sometimes with this laptop, and I have to admit they're awesome. But $250-300? No, I don't think they're worth anything like that much. No way would I spend that kind of money on any of this stuff.

Sorry, I was talking about the Apple headphones that they sell by themselves for like $40-50. I do agree on Bose though - excellent sound quality, WAY overpriced.
