Apple Sucks - GoFuckYourself.com

Rochard · 04-09-2013, 08:25 AM

Kid's iPhone screen is cracked - fourth time in the past year. Back to the mall so I have the screen fixed - again.

Right now I'm reinstalling iTunes for the 4th time in the past month. Odd, because my other music software hasn't had a problem since I started using it nearly fifteen years ago. (I've been using Rhapsody since my very first MP3 player in 1998 or so.)

Best-In-BC · 04-09-2013, 08:28 AM

Apple is ok, if you like to pay more for really nothing, well its nothing if you have already found just as good alternatives.

what's the over/under on this becoming a two-pager?

Choopa_Pardo · 04-09-2013, 08:32 AM

Kids break shit. Stop complaining about broken glass screens and buy a case for the damn phone.

Problem solved.

Rochard · 04-09-2013, 08:35 AM

Outstanding. Uninstalled iTunes, installed it from scratch, still doesn't charge my iTouch. Nice.

Problem solved.

Yea, no, not so much. I've spent nearly $500 on multiple "otterbox" cases and similar. No workie - iPhone still broke. It's comical because she never broke the screen on any other phone.

So youve spent nearly 1k on screen repair and cases? Probably should just switch phones, just saying'. Try having your kid put a hand in paying for the repaired screen(chores, extra study time, etc). Watch how well the phone will be taken care of after that...

They keep breaking because you keep replacing them for her. If she had to pay for it, she'd be a lot more careful.

She does pay for it. But pretty much $70 to replace the screen on her phone again kills her allowance for the next month and a half...

Ross · 04-09-2013, 08:52 AM

After the "kid" broke it second time, they'd be getting an old skool phone until they learned not to break shit. You continue to pay to fix it, they will continue to not give a damn about breaking it.

Is it a 5? if so you should get apple care plus and it would be cheaper to replace the screen.

Sly · 04-09-2013, 08:57 AM

I would bet that 50% of the people that I know have iPhones. I never hear any of them complaining about broken screens. I have one as well, my screen is fine.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Nearly everyone I know who has an iPhone has broken their screen at least once. The freaking mall has four little booths dedicated to fixing broken iPhone screens.

Dankasaur · 04-09-2013, 09:06 AM

Kid breaks screen, Apple sucks.

Nice logic there.

Edit: I broke my iPhone screen once.. Because I let two drunken girls use it to take pictures at the bar... Apple sucks.

isn't that like a fucking hardcore criminal or total nut job kills some people with a gun, so lets ban guns??? you mean like that?

ctggls · 04-09-2013, 09:23 AM

I'm with you on this one Rochard! I just hate the crappy, useless pieces of shit that Apple does. I made the mistake of buying a MacBook Pro some time ago, paid twice as much for the same configuration as a normal windows laptop has...
It buggy and everything is fucked up about it, the way programs are used and so on.. I believe the guys at Apple think like that "Ok, what would be the most easiest way to do an action... like this... ok, let's do it against all logic and common sense!"

Just buy another phone, I've made the mistake of buying their crappy Iphone and I feel like I'm bound to the crappy Itunes that arranges the files in way that only a blind man would sort them...

purecane · 04-09-2013, 09:25 AM

yep, my 19 year old son is the same way. 1st the dog chewed one phone. then his girlfriend got "lotion" on the second one. the third one got dropped at school(college) and just this past weekend he shows up at my house with another cracked screen.....i'm not paying for this one. (however, my wifes brother is giving him a used evo)

OR

B) "The performance of Apple vs. cheaper smartphone alternatives"

shake · 04-09-2013, 09:39 AM

My iPhone 4 still works great. 3 years old now, I use it hours every day and even the battery life is still good. Not an apple fanatic though, it pisses me off that they force the newstand app to the main screen even though I never installed it or will ever use it, they banned a few apps that I used to use a lot and other annoyances...

i met someone last week that i had seen the last time last year in August. back then his iphone screen was broken. when i said last week that he should finally fix it, he said that this is his new iphone...

Jesse1984 · 04-09-2013, 10:25 AM

Buy a solid case. Kids break everything. Don't blame a manufacturer.

Shit, my cars engine needs work, I only drove it 100,000 miles, fucking car company.

Or blame yourself for buying a clearly irresponsible kid an expensive phone. My parents bought my my first phone, an old brick style nokia. If I wanted a better one, I had to save up and buy it. Just like everything else nice. Taught me the value of protecting my shit and buying cases.

I've had every single version of iphone and never broke a screen. Used iSkin's Revo case on every model except this one. Best case ever, a tank and super slim. They didn't make it for the iPhone 5 sadly. How about investing in an otterbox?

Your missing a few things here.

Your saying "You just bought a brand new car, but you should by a plastic cover to protect your windshield". My kid has had lots of smart phones and none of them have had broken screens like the iPhone has. Come to think of it, I've never seen ANYONE with a broken screen unless it was an iPhone.

I shouldn't have to buy a special $100 case to protect my electronics.

And I have bought them - A few otterbox covers, a few others. Looks great, doesn't fucking work.

I haven't browsed GFY in 6 months and you guys are still arguing about how much Apple sucks and fucking typos?

Too funny.

Damian - nobody cares.
Rochard - your kid is clumsy, stop giving her glass things.

Actually though, motherfuck apple in the dick, those cocksuckers

I agree. Apple is fucking bullshit.

I've had four versions of the iPhone and two of the iPad and never even scratched the screens, maybe you should tell your kid not to throw it around that much ;)

Now that I said that do you want to bet that they both shatter within 24 hours!!
