When I have to explain to people that Samsung is not equal to Android.

 

I hate it when I say Android to people and they are clueless as to what I am talking about, then when I say the Google mobile OS, still clueless. The thing that runs on Samsung phones.. OH THAT! 

 

There are other Android phones other than Samsung.... This is coming from me who has been an iOS user for 4 years!

Huh, here everyone seems to know what Android is, no matter what phone they have. Only problem is, it's all they talk about now (along with what foxes say)

I'm talking about regular consumers though, although Android may be dominating, most people who have Android are clueless to the fact that their phone even runs it!

So my friend is using IE10 for god knows how long, and I suggested he should download chrome. He's reply was "Nevermind, it might slow down my PC. IE10's INTERNET is still fast."

I think i've got a really bad "story" that I KNOW exists;

 

Kids don't know how to operate a screwdriver.

 

It might not be 100% tech related, but I'll keep on bringing that up, and the sad truth is, that WILL happen in a few years unless we attempt to do something serious about it.

On a other note, with that explanation we shouldn't be expecting offspring from them anytime soon.

I just got a call from a local. They said that they blame me of giving them bad internet. They said that during the blackout yesterday(a few roads lost power for 2 minutes) her internet stopped working. She blamed me.

Well if they damage it, then yeah some components would get effected... But if they drop it and no components are damaged, then yeah you're right.

In what way does that slow it down, if it breaks it's dead, if it doesn't break it will work.

It's not like an old man, if you drop him he will most likely not move as quickly anymore, if at all.

So many things I could write here... things like this.

One of my friend came up to me the other day if you could buy a USB to RAM adaptor, I really didn't know what to say...

You should have told him to go ask at Best Buy for one. :lol:

So my friend got a Nokia Lumia and goes on about how it's the best phone ever and how my iPhone is so much worse. He sells it and gets a BlackBerry and goes on about BBM makes BlackBerry the best phone ever and how my iPhone is bad because I have to pay more to text. He sells it and get's a Galaxy S2, again says how it's the best phone in the world EVER, and how android beats Apple any day. He sells it and get's an iPhone... He tells me how epic it is and that nothing else can beat it... THIS GUY!

 

This same friend texts me "cum 2 my uncles he got gta5 on his pc" I didn't even bother replying.

(This is that friend that draws dicks on your paper in lesson)
