Canada EH!!!
just realized that I love my iPhone more than ever. I'm waiting for new tires for my car and this guy sits next to me and starts slurping coffee and sucking his teeth. So ... I pop in my ear phones and crank the tunes ;)

Snapped his picture too. And posting this helped me kill time LOL

what a use for the iphone camera,

we finally found its sole purpose take unsuspecting pictures of people

good effort
 
Yea, I thought it was taken with an P&S. But yea, looks like your having fun with your iPhone. What kinda of car do you have? I am guessing an Acura, that car in background looks like the Acura TSX.

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's an Accord.

Besides, what do you think the likelihood of that guy in the photo being in an Acura dealership?
 
My dad also like to take pictures of people with his iPhone when they dont know. His specialty? People sleeping on trains and fat people on motorbikes. One got featured in a Gaijin mag here!

I hate coffee teeth suckers.
 
Yea that's an Accord in the background. I've got a gas mizer Civic. Only way I could afford the phone. ;)

I will pick a better subject the next time I get bored.

Humorous to hear that others take candid photos.

Cheers.
 
We'll at least you didn't have to see the woman kneeling down and slurping and sucking for some cream. ;)
 
Can one of you North Americans please explain "teeth sucking". Do you mean drawing air into your lungs, through the mouth with your jaw shut?

Because I can't actually suck my teeth - as they're part of my mouth...

Maybe he lived in Japan before. :p

Wow - that's the highest quality pic I've ever seen taken from a phone.
The iPhone camera does a decent job. Granted it is not the same quality as a P&S or better camera.

It's not near as bad as some on MR would have you believe.

Question for iPhone owners. Can you turn off the shutter sound?

Sort of like that.

Check movement/positioning is important as well -- at least in Japan. :p
 
Who cares, he's old. Most old people just let themselves go and don't care. :p
Don't worry, you will get there soon enough.

Right now you are 28, I think. Someday you will be 48, and you will think back on those 20 years and they will seem like a blink in time. :eek:

It definitely goes quickly.

The guy could be very rich.
Funny you said this. A very close buddy of mine, who is a multimillionaire -- even has a Rolls -- looks just like this guy except he likes to wear a simple T-Shirt or flannel shirts instead of old Navy. ;)

A rich man who wears a Canadian tuxedo? It could happen...


I know a guy whose parents are quite rich, and his father only wears shirts that you'd likely find in a souvenir shop, and baseball caps with some sort of fisherman's emblem from an obscure tribal village in the Yukon Territories (I made the logo up. Truthfully, I don't know what it is). If you saw him, and didn't see him walk out of a Merc SUV, his choice of clothing could be interpreted in 2 ways:

1. He's 'po.

2. He's rich enough to travel anywhere he wants, picking up t-shirts from exotic locations.


Most people guess #1 until they see his car, watch, wife's clothes, etc.
 
Wealthy people are interesting. Usually the people that are wealthy, but not disgustingly so (such as big time celebrities and athletes) show their wealth off via nice clothes, cars, and so on. But the next level up is actually the opposite - in many cases you wouldn't know it by looking at them at all. I guess you get to a point where you cease to care whether people know you're rich or not.
