I'm a proud Apple owner but I hate Apple Stores. They're Orwellian and surreal and cultish. They're all white with hipster looking people who all look and dress the same. Everything in this place is white and the lighting is bright so you almost have to squint wherever you look. There's dozens of people running around in a small area like there's some mother master brain overlording all of them. The people working there are always kind of rude to me too. I'm just a basic stoner guy but I refuse to try to fit into any trend or style and they always look at me like I'm too inferior to use a MacBook. I fucking hate that I have to dodge people in there like they're an astroid field and I'm the millenium falcon that are running around and think they're so great to own a MacBook and say shit like "Oh you have a MacBook? Well I have the New MacBook Pro Air Fucking Rich White Cracker Model That's Not Due Out For Another Year But I Sucked Off An Apple Exec And He Gave It To Me Not To Go Public. It Reads Your Thoughts. What You're Not Willing To Suck Dick To Be A Member Of The Apple Family?"
Love Apple, I fucking hate Apple Owners and Apple Stores and the Apple Culture.

I washed my little shuffle in the laundry, and then it went through the dryer too. Not suprisingly, it doens't work anymore so I am in the process of trying to get an upgraded one. I was just going to take it back and tell them it doesn't work, so they should exchange it...
But you have to actually make an appointment with the "Mac Genius Dept" at your local Apple store. My appt is for 7 tonight, so I hope they give me a new one.

think they have been putting indicators inside electronics recently to tell if they have gotten wet. heard someone on here worked at bestbuy or something and someone turned in a phone and he knew it was flushed

Haha good luck, I had to wait three months and was in customer service hell the entire time waiting for Apple to eventually give up on fixing my laptop and send me a new one.

Interesting why theres so much hate for apple stores. I mean..there are so many seemingly equally shitty stores out there. Stores in general are pretty shitty places(unless you're on drugs).
Anyway, while we're on the topic, i've been to an apple store once. the week the 5g ipod came out to buy one. Never before or after. Didn't really take the time to look around or anything, since i just followed my usual store routine of going in, getting exactly what i came in to get, paying for it, and leaving. Perhaps theres something extremely evil in there that i managed to miss.

What dimension do you live in? My new typewriter was only a little over 1k with a free Ipod Touch and free multifunction printer.
$4k would get you a Macbook or Macbook Pro, an awesome SLR camera, and a nice Apple Cinema display. Oh and throw in the free Ipod Touch and printer.

it was sarcasm/ exaggeration, anyways wtf did you actually buy a apple typewriter for? fuck i didn't even know they actually sold them, was it the free ipod and printer that made it sound like a good deal for 1k?

It was an allusion to your reference as laptops / computers being expensive typewriters.
I can't believe I actually had to explain that. Every day I lose a little more hope for humanity.
j/k, we're all good.
