Or is the release cadence giving y’all life? + +Body + + No one cares that Android has it first, did it first. Did they do it + best? Of course not. The Android ecosystem at large doesn’t try to be + best, they aim for decent and wrap that in Apple-esque hardware + design at a price point that emboldens their fans to stick it to the + iSheep excited about what their ecosystem of choice is releasing. + + Isn’t it interesting how fervent Android fans try to get Apple fans + to stop buying Apple products? I’ve never once seen or heard of Apple + fans telling their Android counterparts to stop buying those + products; they don’t give a shit. It’s giving Mad Men. + + 📸[I don’t think about you at all][IMG1] + + Anyhoo, all the hooplah surrounding Apple’s new foldable iPhone has + vocal Android users losing their fucking minds.

Just stop using so many words to explain + why you don’t wanna spend the money. It’s fine. + + Objectively, having a suite of products and experiences that (for the + most part) gel well together and look good together is desired. It’s + called having taste. Android phone, Dell laptop, Fitbit…congrats? + Enjoy? Who cares. + + Everyone has opinions about Apple products and the people who buy + them. The inverse NEVER happens. I don’t ever think of these people. + One of my best friends is an Android enthusiast and he doesn’t care + about my product choices and the feeling’s mutual. And guess what?
