If They Have An iPhone, Avoid Like The Plague
Retrevo, the consumer electronics online store, recently released the results of their Gadgetology study on smart phone users. The results are more evidence that iPhone users like myself are shallow, hypocritical, completely undatable assholes.
Shallow
iPhone users judge people on their gadgets. According to the results of the study, hot new gadgets are, to the iPhone user, three times sexier than a college degree. And 34 percent of iPhone users surveyed said old gadgets are a turn off.
Hypocritical
The study found that although iPhones owners are more addicted to their iPhones (they use more apps–100,000 more, to be exact), they are completely intolerant of heavy smart phone use by their significant others.
Stricken with a permanent case of My Apps Are More Important Than Your Apps, iPhone users believe they are far more productive than any other smart phone user–even though they use their phones more for watching videos, checking sports scores, SMSing and, despite iTunes store regulations, to watch porn.
Yes, iPhone users watch far more porn on their phones than BlackBerry users (interesting, considering more women own iPhones than men).
Assholes
iPhone owners would are more likely to dump you via text than face-to-face.
Verdict?
If you’re digging an iPhone user, you’ve been warned.
And if you are an iPhone user–like me–well, we need therapy.
