Wanna fight me IRL?

Sent from my silver iPhone 8+

J/k. I hit like a little girl...most likely because I have a silver iPhone.

Okay okay...I’ll stop now. :p

How did you manage to get that signature working?!
 
Yes, if I see someone with a silver iPhone I take it from him/her and throw it on the ground.

You fool! You must nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure! If even a single one of them survives, we’re doomed!

...

Nah, don’t care one bit. The color of someone’s iPhone combined with other visual/behavioral cues may give me a rough indication about someone’s personality, but I don’t instantly judge that person. So if you’re a guy who wants to slip a rose gold iPhone into a Hello Kitty case, go right ahead. You’ll probably get a friendly smile out of me when I see you pull out that phone, but that’s about it. So no need to worry, unless you’re allergic to friendly smiles...
 
It better be a 256 GB model with an Apple leather case on it else I’m gonna find you and destroy your phone. Yes that’s how much I care about other people phones. /s

It’s a 64...:eek:

I’ll save a girly-hand left hook for you too! Muhahahaha!

I have a signature? :confused:

I have no idea...I’m on mobile so I can’t see anything. What are you seeing?

Isn’t that your signature?

I care what color your phone is about as much as I care what phone you buy.

I'll gladly give you my reasons behind why I bought my phone if you are looking for opinions... but in the end I don't really give a rats what you buy or what color it is.

:)

The fact that other people worry about what others think is mind boggling. I guess it's to be expected though when the iPhone is such a status symbol.

:rolleyes:

Love my iPhone 8 Plus... I hear it's soon to be second fiddle to the iPhone X... while sharing the same processor and lacking a notch and Face ID. Somehow I'm sure I'll manage... :)
 
Wow the thread puttered out after only a few hours.

The takeaway: no, people - most everyone does not care that you have a pink, or a gold, or a blue phone. Stop showing us how insecure YOU are!
 
I honestly don't even care what phone's other people have, let alone care about the color. Seems like a very weird thing to care about.

Just wondering, since we have so many threads about people worrying about everyone else might think about the color they'd choose.

Me: I couldn't care less what color someone else chooses.

But isn't it interesting how insecure some folks can be?

I couldn't care less about the color of someone else's phone either. In general I couldn't care less about what anyone else does in general.

Every once in a while someone will post on this forum that they want to show off their iPhone, or they worry about the color if it matches their other equipment, or if it’s a girly color, or they want to know what other people think. Those are the individuals that make me want to scratch my head and ask what is wrong with people. They’re thinking process in posting these questions is flawed and I don’t think they realize it. And that’s sad.

i sometimes ask myself why someone choses the ugliest case in the world for their phone. but they can do whatever they want. i just notice it. ;)
 
Nope, it's all personal preference. People tend to look for justification on all of their decisions on this site though. Especially when it comes to your choice of using iOS or Android. It's all personal preference and there is no wrong choice.

Nope it's what I evaluate and then impart to all of you plebs what the correct choice is. [/sarcasm]
 
So my hypothesis was correct. No one cares. Even if we believe the story of the person that heard of someone who did, that one person that did care was ridiculed for doing it.

So in the future if you need to ask "I'm really insecure and can't make a decision without other's approval, but is it ok if I buy the color I really want?", the answer is:

"NO ONE CARES". And the few randos that do are losers anyway.

Problem solved! Thanks phillytim!

We shouldn't see any more "I really want that X color, but I'm a Y and people might think I'm a Z if I get one" threads!

Phew!

Oh unfortunately we'll still see tons more of those new insecure threads pop up. Most people just won't get it, evere They are much too self-indulgent.
