Apart of course from with the bubble-head apple-heads.... and so it goes on...

I make no argument for the consumer end of Apple's stuff - beyond that fact that fooling several hundred million people - time after time - with some sort of sub-standard product - is no mean feat.


I find it pervy that someone with an iPhone 4 would immediately want an iPhone 5 for sure. But then I find it equally pervy that anyone else should genuinely give a sh1T!

I'm not posting to say 'I don't give a shit' though am I, eh? .. I'm posting to say that I find it pervy that other people give a shit so much.. why they get so purple with rage about the whole thing. Really, it's weird.


It's like getting angry because your neighbour owns a Ford Focus or something. Why?!

Erm..... didn't pick up any purple protestations on here meself. Like I said, I find the lemming-like consumerism mania interesting to observe, and occasionally to comment on :)

It is odd - agreed.

"[snip] phone doesn't work quite as we'll as some [snip]"


Lovely!


On the wider point quite agree, it is all very silly, but then people need to obsess over something before middle age and your looming mortality render all that vim and gusto null and void when faced with the utter pointlessness and meaningless of ones own existence and the cosmos' deep indifference to you.


That said I hope Steve jobs* burns in hell, or something.


*only joking, I meant Tony Blair obviously.

    • Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove.   The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.    
    • Back to my earlier post about familiarity.  I was in Croydon this afternoon walking between the two main stations.  Didn't feel unsafe, but there were some 'interesting' characters on the street.  Not that any were bothered with me. Not a place I'd choose to go for a bit of a fun.  Although having said that West Croydon has some cracking restaurants and the wonderfully named Saints and Sinners bar, where I once went on a corporate do - not that I did many of these. Whoops just checked and it closed a few months ago. Back on track, I never went to the Castle as I felt it was a bit rough.  How wrong was I?  Only real pub left in the area.
    • Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.
