Before you read any further down in this thread, look HERE.
Imagine that! Apple is LITERALLY in denial. They're blaming the USERS for Apples ignorance in the Mobile Device World. When will the Apple users learn that their devices ARE HUGE PILES OF CRAP!?.. AND ACTUALLY ADMIT IT!?!?!?! FAIL.
Here's the Reality: *When Apple tells users not to hold their device as they see comfortably fit is the day that the sheep get prodded once more.. and all the sheep go back into their state of denial, following the trend of IDIOTS around the world who actually continue paying for Apples Stupidity. Apple has never been #1 in the world for anything besides failure, and that shall never change.
[*And hey, that happened TODAY... run along little mindless sheep... go back to your Apple Tree and cry]
Smart Choice: Buy something that doesn't have a FRUIT LOGO ON IT!!! And they day you do that is the day you'll look in the mirror and laugh at the previous you for falling for an over-budgeted advertising scheme and following the rest of the sheep. Forget Apple and you'll be human again, not an ignorant waste of [male mating juice].
God help all Apple users around the world, allow them to lose the blinding curtain of stupidity that floods their vision. And allow them to once-again think for themselves.
There, I feel better.
What are your thoughts on this issue? And be honest...
[At Staff: If this thread is simply TOO much, feel free to delete it. I just thought it was time for Apple Fans to step into reality.]

Agent Zach
I've been reading your posts for sometime now and in "some" occasions don't really approve or side with your opinions but this time...buddy...right in the nose.
I'm still in awe about the way Apple does business, taking advantage of people just because they are the company that once revolutionized the computer industry with personal computers. It’s like buying a cell phone from Fidel Castro using Hugo Chavez cell company…a marriage made to match.
Just like sheep I tells ya, sheep!!

I was shocked a flaw this big gets through product testing, and then they tell you not to hold it that way? That's it? A flaw that doesn't allow you to use the phone as a phone is a HUGE problem, and Apple won't acknowledge it.

Of course they won't. Why take the blame when they can blame at&t some more.
After reading some reviews, etc.. it seems even the WiFi loses signal when held in hand.
And I'm sure at&t isn't logged into every router in the world... or are they? [We already know Google was once. ]
It's just another fail strategy by the reincarnated Adolf Hitler {Zhe Fuhrer} [Steve Jobs].

if you dont like apple products then thats your problem why do you want the ppl to stop using apple???its a personal choice...not your choice....

All-in-all, I don't want people to stop using their Apple products, I just want them to stop lying to their friends, family, and even THEMSELVES.
Besides, when someone walks into my home with an Apple product, it makes me feel better about about my device, knowing that it works the way it should and they I want it to. Apples devices, on the other hand, work the way Apple wants them to, not how the user wants them to...

are you envy of your friends iphone dropping signals? theres an app for that! lol

Apple raised the bar for Mobil devices, we are all profiting from that and the competition that comes with it, that is a very good thing.

Did You Just LICK That?! (or – Why It is a Waste of $ to Buy Hand Sanitizer)

I’m a self-proclaimed helicopter mom. It’s what I do. I hover and worry and spritz myself, my child, and anyone who happens to be standing near with non-alcohol based hand sanitizer. It’s my little attempt to balance the ‘my-kid-goes-to-daycare-and-is-therefore-exposed-to-every-germ-on-the-planet-and-is-sick-too-frequently-for-comfort’ syndrome I’m currently suffering from.
However, I realized ALL of my efforts are for naught the other day as Pineapple and I were ‘cleaning’ up the closet.
It went something like this:
Me: Oh Pineapple are you helping mommy clean the closet?! You’re such a good, sweet, smart baby!
Pineapple: A-yeah! (she’s says ‘yeah’ a lot)
Me: Are you going to help mommy pick up daddy’s shoes? Bad old daddy left them all over the place again! No, no, no daddy! <waggling finger>
Pineapple: N-n-n da-da! <waving hand madly around>
Me: OK, I’m just going to finish putting these shirts in this drawer – you start putting those shoes in that basket, OK?
Pineapple: A-yeah.
<I turn my back and begin putting clean laundry in the drawers as I listen to Pineapple diligently place DH’s shoes in the basket. Turning around to admire her handiwork, I see something disturbing…..>
Me: PINEAPPLE!!! Did you just LICK the bottom of that SHOE?!
Pineapple: A-yeah. <Pineapple nods her head and selects a flip flop from the floor. I then watch in horror as she examines the bottom, sticks out her tiny pink tongue and gives it a good lick.>
Me: OH NO! STOP LICKING DADDY’S NASTY SHOE BOTTOMS RIGHT NOW!!!
Pineapple: A-yeah. <As she licks the bottom of a tennis shoe.>
Me: ACK!!!!
So, as you can see…all of that money on hand sanitizer. All of that worry over her health and well-being completely undone by the innocent act of straightening up the closet. I tell you now – it’s a futile effort. At this point, I’m just waiting for her to lick the rails on the street car or eat gum from under the table because, let’s face it folks, it can’t get any worse…..right? No, I don’t want to hear your toilet story, thankyouverymuch.

Non-alcohol based Hand Sanitizer does not work. Over using Alcohol Based hand sanitizer is bad since if you look at the lable it kills 99.9% of bacetria. The .1% of bacteria that is immune to the hand sanitizer becomes stronger imune against it multiplying on your hands which leads to it being 99.9% of bacteria on your hands making hand sanitizer useless.
But it does feel good when you rub your hands with it

Don't be upset: I have 2 kids, 5 and 10yo, and both, in some point in their lifes, also get some oral fixation in shoes soles... and they both outgrowned that fixation, so there's hope for your Pineapple.

My little girl (18mo) does similar things, almost as if it is "haha, look what I did, what are you going to do about it!" I remember her licking my shoes before - not the sole, but the upper leather on my work shoes) - fortunately I guess she didn't like the taste much as hasn't done it since.
When we had our 4d scan, we actually saw he poke her tongue out and lick her umbilical cord, repeatedly. Funny girl, we didn't have a chance from the start!

All this talk of shoes reminded me something. Before my kid could cwrall he spent half an hour dragging himself accross the room to get to my slipper...so he could barf in it. The missus tells me it was the smell that made him sick, but I saw that look in his eye. He planned the whole thing.

Its ok, It helps build up their immune system. Som health professionals are saying some places are too sanitised. Apparently its better to let them pick up minor viruses and bacteria so they will gain natural immunity to some of the more serious diseases.

Agreed, whilst not letting Poppy go eat mud, she does get to do most things she wants as I want her immune system to not consist of antibacteria soap. I want her body to do it
I'm in the group thinking that is why there are so many allergies now days.

That makes sense.....no showers either just going to get dirty after....

Now that would be a trick, threading a square screw into a square hole! I figure if we could find a way to do that, the universe will be able to make square planets. Then the world really would be flat lol

I'll tell you what...
..if you watch all the Wimp.com videos from beginning to end it will be a greater mind-altering/learning experience, than all the LSD on the planet +/- ten years ivy-league education!
I've learned more about about the human condition in 6 months of watching these videos than i have in 38 years of my real life. If you want to see what people are really capable of creating, instead of being drowned daily by what people are are capable of destroying, this is the answer for you!
If this planet is being ruined by 99% of the population, it's the 0.1% that you see in these videos that make the continuation of this species worthwhile!
To do a thread-type inception...were i to bring a person from history back from the dead?.. i would pick Leonardo De Vinci. In an era where dogmatic practices were holding the world back from immense discoveries, the few that dared to challenge the 'accepted' facts, Copernicus, for example, who 'dared' to suggest that the Earth wasn't the centre of the universe..only a part of it, these people, these innovators, led the world into an new era of understanding..these are the people who have driven the advancement of mankind.
In a thousand years from now, who will the future historians be thinking back on as the 'greats' of our time? The Physicians like 'Hawkins'? The artists like 'Dali'? Perhaps the visionaries like 'Asimov'?
Who know's who it'll be...but i'm willing to bet that the first ones for consideration will be the same people who are currently pushing the boundaries, doing the things that that we consider unimaginable, and yet are out there doing the impossible for the enjoyment and betterment of mankind!
I personally have a deep-seated hatred for the ignorance of mankind, but an overwhelming optimism that a select few can make a wealth of difference for the many!
/FridayNightPhilosophy!
EDIT: God only knows, as i sit here ,pissed, listening to great tunes..that out of 7 Billion souls currently on this planet, that my contribution to the planet as a whole is next to useless.
In a million years from now, the best that i can hope for is that my skeletal remains are part of the 0000.1% that may become part of the geological fossil record, that future generations can study and glean an ounce of information from. (Their deductions being that i came from an era where DNA destroying substances, and a penchant for warefare led to the extinction of an entire race...and that we were all obsessed by self-destructive paradigms that ended with us donating nothing more than a few genes to the generations to come, rather than being the fathers of a new and enlightened epoch of history.
Homo-Sapien? Pfft..
..in a million years from now we'll be nothing more that an another branch of the evolutionary tree that suddenly became a bookmark in history! The only hope as i see it is if people wake up to the fact that all we have is what we are now! We're living at at a turning point..and if we don't do the right things now, we'll be expunged from the record books, forever.

That's impressive!

More to the point, a square drill bit boggles my primitive Mind.

I apologize for spouting falsehood and haring the belief system
of anyone harmed by what I spouted as truth.
If you need to discuss this with me, PM me.

I do believe that if religion keeps being discussed here...these thread will now "evolve" into a closed one.
Just deleted some posts regarding religion....keep to drilling topic alive....or magnets, how do they work?

Because of their size to the untrained eye a train appears to be going slower than it actually is. 8 or 9 out of 10 make this deadly error. You gauge a train's speed by stationary objects around it's path of travel. Telegraph poles or electric poles are convenient reference points. Error on the side of caution. Beware of the 2 or more trains at once on different tracks, the one you can't see can still kill you.
Don't trip on the tracks, ties or gravel holes as this can be a deadly mistake even with no train. The rails will break bones if you fall on them... always assume a train is coming. I've walked many miles on active lines starting at 6yo, still here.
