Holy cow, guys! Why all the hate? :(

I think it's funny how people take their devices so seriously, like the never-ending Microsoft vs. Apple debate. Even Bill Gates and Steve Jobs didn't care about it as much as some people do. I think sometimes people either forget or just don't know that Steve and Bill made a lot of money working together over the years. They're not enemies.

Nah what i meant was apple and steve jobs were rivals to android, with that rivalry in mind they had to keep production and advancements going to keep up with the changing tides. Positive reinforcement you might say.

oh, well in that case, I agree with you 100%

Lets bring back MS-DOS =D

No, no! Vax/VMS or nothing! Or, possibly, programming anodes by hand. With magnets.

That's ridiculous imo... Grow up.

Sigh the old argument of which platform is better again...I own more tech toys than most(I own an iPad, iPhone 4, Thunderbolt, and Xoom for christs sake) and there are certain things I like and dislike about both such as how my apple items are more responsive while my droid ones seem slightly better looking. and I'm pretty sure thats the chrome logo on the back of the jetpacks so in theory doesn't that make this a google event? I mean I get why they use droids since Apple doesn't need a mascot and well the droid kinda fits with the space theme, dig?

Thats just messed up of them, it's not cool to do. Like i also saw some guy named Stevejobsghost. IMO that alt that he made isn't cool.

Haters will hate, just let them hate. Ignore the haters and live your life the way you want it, don't let no one tell you otherwise.

p.s. I'm just adding to your reply lol

I'm so sorry you came across such a nasty and hate-inspired scene. I'm glad you got out of there when you did. I can see this brought some very difficult thoughts, feelings, and memories back to the surface, and I doubt it improved after you left. And for the record, being thick-skinned about death jokes is not a good way to be. You are fine just the way you are, so keep on doing what you do!

I am also very sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. Thank you for sharing that information with us. It makes me happy that you feel comfortable doing so, and I hope that sharing and talking about it has helped you heal, even if only a little bit.

While I cannot relate to the death of those close to me, I am fairly certain diabetes is going to take my dad within the next few years, or so. I'm also fairly certain I am in denial about that fact... Regardless, I would be pretty thin-skinned about death jokes, too.

I'd like to make one observation and one conclusion about the event you had the misfortune to witness: O) Sometimes even good things can bring out the worst in us (Droid visits are a good thing, right?), and C) We must always watch what we say, particularly in anonymous chat. This event was likely triggered by a statement intended to be innocent or a joke that was taken out of context and perpetuated by others with lesser intent.

Now let's try to see the good in the bad. At least we learned one of your dirty little secrets! And this one was so good there was even another thread all about it. You play bagpipes! (people everywhere running and screaming) And I'm sure you're wonderful at it.
