Anyone had tech supremacists like this in your school/college, if so share

[asim1999]

I hate when this happens. I bought my OnePlus 2 into school today. I was minding my own business when a number of these people started criticizing my handset

I will highlight 3 people:

1) Comes upto me in free period and starts babbling about how is iPhone 5C is better than my phone in terms of "performance" and looks. Simplly tell him to go look at the benchmarks to prove him wrong, and he didnt take any of it and told me to sod off

2) One girl starts complaining about how her Galaxy Note 3 broke due to her dropping it in the bath twice (LOL get a sony handset if u are going to do stuff like that). I said ti her to check out the OnePlus 2 as she wanted something "cheap". Next thing you know, she says screw it, i will buy an iPhone 6S or Galaxy S6. WTF (she actually said CHEAP BTW). 

3) 3rd guy: says his Nexus 5X 32GB is better "value" than my phone even though it costs £100 more. Wut? Also, he says that having Android 6.0 makes it automatically better. I calmly explain that my phone is better than almost every aspect in terms of hardware. He then rudely tells me to shut my mouth.

 

By the way, i simply took out my phone and these people made these comments, i did not provoke them.

In high school -No we were all too poor and busy getting high

 

In college- Mind your own damn business. Bet you bought your 'superior' device with loans.

Nope. Parents made me buy it with birthday and other money given by relatives that i have saved up over the years. This is the UK dude, we dont get "college loans" here

That's life in a nutshell

 

" Look at these facts right here "

 

 

" WHAT FACTS? MAN MY OPINION IS A FACT SO STFU AND GO BACK INTO YOUR HOLE YOU DUMBASS "  

 

" I hate the human race "

Okay, even though this person there probably doesn't know what they're talking about, maybe (if you're even telling his side correctly), I would wager Google/LG support being way more helpful than One Plus.

 

How do you think One Plus makes these phones so cheap? What do you think you're paying for when you buy from LG/Samsung/anyone else?

[Aytex]

Sounds like me talking to console peasants

Haven't had that since a classmate scoffed at my gameboy color. (He had the gameboy advance)

tech support and warranty.

But he meant in the phone itself, not any other aspect

Xbox can run 12K according to people I know, you're lucky. #XBOXMASTERRACE

lucky. Most kids at my school (i go to a grammar school) are spoilt by their parents with iPhones and crap. I feel left out 

I know only one other person who has a OnePlus Two, and i was the one who told him about OnePlus before the One was announced on his birthday

I guess they would hate my Galaxy Xcover II in that school though

Why are you guys still saying this stuff outside of the subreddit?

 

Don't give me the "It's just a joke bro!".

Yeah maybe. I'm just saying he's still right. OP's customer service is as existent as Austin Evan's understanding of PCs (#shotsfired).

I don't understand why people even bother arguing about the specs of a phone, all you'll be doing is internetting, phone calls, and light gaming, the only thing that really matters is storage space

True, i wanted something powerful and cheap, so OPT was mo only option. I could either go with an iPhone 6S 16GB or iPad Air 2, or iPad Pro and OPT 64GB . decided ipad was more important cos of my bad eyesight and i will use it more. Now others are criticizing my decision left,right and centre

Thankfully most of my friends will cede when it comes to challenging my hardware picks. I have 1-2 Apple fanboys that sometimes challenge me and then I drop kick them both verbally and physically if need be.

by that I mean leftover money they owed anyway because we pay 29k USD a semester. So putting themselves in more debt basically. 

[Guest Generallee]

boohoo

 

Awww

 

People hurt your tech feelings huh

[Maximoose]

We had a guy at school that would be way too technical about everything, for example, we were talking about a computer and I said it has 8 GB of RAM and he rudely inserted "well it depends on which model you get"  :angry: Another instance I was talking about a mod pack for minecraft and every time I said mod instead of mod pack he would yell "IT'S A MOD PACK" then I would say "whatever" and then he would go rambling on about the difference. He would constantly insert smart alick comments and brag about his hardware in the process.

that's called being a a worthless piece of dick cheese. I wouldn't really tech that tech supremacy I would just attribute that to him being worthless in general.

Yes but not just tech related. There was a supremacist in my high-school who always put his opinion on others as facts. it got to the point where hr ended up getting punched by someone. 

[EmeraldKiwi]

I had some scrub in my high school years go on and on about how Ubuntu was the best OS ever made and how he built his PC transistor by transistor. Bunch of nonsense. He was really dumb.
