Someone is excited about their new gadget.

Someone feels a sense of community on these forums.

Someone comes to share their little bit of excitement.

Whether warranted or not, they certainly don't need you bunch of wankers raining on their fun.

Is it so damn hard to be nice, or lacking that capability, to just ignore the original message?

And the irony is that I bet every single one of you wet their pants when the Fed-Ex guy knocked on the door with your shiny new iPhone...

People in Israel use the word wanker? I thought that was just us British.
 
You're all missing the point here. After 3 years of waiting he's finally getting the iPhone 4. This is amazing! Over here in the UK it's only been out for a few weeks :p

This. And I remember posts in the past from the OP about trying to get an iPhone in the past but not being able to, so I, for one, was happy for him. Enjoy it, OP!

"Wanker" just sounds ghey. In the future please refer to me as a dick head. Thanks! :cool:
 
After nine hours of tossing and turning, looking at the clock every hour or so as I'd gain some level of consciousness from what can be loosely defined as "sleep," disappointed that I would be tired and groggy all day, I decided to log on to the internet, check what's new in the world, and allow myself to wake up. I even drank a cup of coffee, to no avail.

Deciding I've had enough of being in this half-awake, half-dead stupor, I took a shower, got dressed, and left for work. Traffic made the twenty minute trip last for forty-five, and the radio only played depressing songs. Arriving in my office, I was called into my bosses office, receiving word that I would be terminated to return by the end of the week.

While packing up my belongings and crying to myself, I decided to check MacRumors one last time. With depressing 80's music playing through my iTunes, I stumbled upon a thread, "Well after 3 years of waiting..."

I wanted to thank you OP, as your incredibly interesting story not only completely cured my bouts of depression, but immediately after reading it, my boss returned and offered me a promotion. Also, Boeing called me and gave me a free private jet, so I no longer have to wait in traffic.

The bed and non sleeping issue would have been resolved (I even saw the guys from Extreme Home Makeover pull up around the side of my house), but then as I continued to read I noticed you had ordered the 16GB iPhone 4. See, while this is a novel attempt at capturing the true essence of what Apple wants you to have, the fact of the matter is, there is no way you can download all of your $9.99 HD movies on iTunes with that puny amount of space. And with that, the excitement I felt when you finally pressed that order button, and wrote down your fathers social security number in an insecure web page where it is currently being circulated in a Nigerian network of scammers, slowly dwindled away.

Enjoy your iPhone!!!!!!!!! I know I will. What?
 
The question is, does your Dad know you used his SSN?

If not, thats worth posting. Fraud always equals Drama. :D

Okay... yeah... I agree. Enjoy your new phone, OP.

Unless you stole your dad's SSN, in which case, I hope you run faster than him.

;)
 
your mistaking it for facebook, twitter is for marketing spam.. I don't actually ever see anyone post things like this on twitter, but on facebook all the time "I just put a sign in my yard telling people not to let there dogs on it, that'll show them" "off to work!"
