The Apple Haters’ 7 Stages of Grief
This is hilarious,
Found it on twitter, posted back in 2010 on arstechnica.com
"The Apple haters’ stages of grief go something like this:
Predict failure of new Apple product
Attribute early success of new Apple product to rabid fanbois affected by the reality distortion field
Attribute longer term success of product to stupidity of consumers
Purchase previously scorned product for stupid relatives so they stop bothering you to help support the open source version of Apple product sold by Super Lucky Technology Extreme Inc. that you convinced them to buy
Purchase previously scorned product for yourself just to see what all the fuss is about
Admit that you now own and use the product, but complain about the product’s lack of SD card slot on random Internet forum
Forget prior criticism of product, claim that it was revolutionary and an example of how Apple used to be really innovative, but has now lost its edge
Rinse and repeat
I wish I could take credit for this but I can’t. Got this from an arstechnica.com forum posting from way back in June of 2010.
The forum poster’s moniker is The Real Blastdoor. Please join me in thanking him for this, because it is absolutely pure gold. Additionally, each and every word is true.
