Things to do in a apple store

Generally, I stay away from the apple store, I've got no reason to be there and not interested in anything they sell, but occasionally I may have to take a parent's phone into the store since there's something wrong with it and find myself waiting there for a loooooooooooong time.

 

Are there any interesting things that I could ask people or any funny responses to 'are you interested in our new macbook' ect?

put some strange background on all the things, open porn or whatever on them, ask why the chargers cost fucking $90

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

Maybe ask: When will Macbooks come with mechanical keyboards?  Nah, unless you enjoy people's awkward looks

 

Or ask: When will they make a cheaper iPhone like the 5C?

Ask them about the gaming performance of a Mac of course!

Or just don't bother these minimum wage slaves.

Just look around, there are lots of interesting stuff. I bought a power brick with two 2.7A USB ports in an Apple store a few years ago and it still works like a charm. Maybe just play with Macbook and wonder why they are so expensive (like most laptops nowadays), or just go somewhere else until they are done with the phone.

Lol the people there aren't actually that bad, they 'try' to help others but its a shame the company took a nosedive after Steve Jobs died

 

I gotta admit, there are a lot of funny responses to this thread, please keep it going, I hope it gathers some momentum considering the meme apple is within the pc community

I was an avid Apple fanboy or at least constant user until Steve died. My apple life is becoming less and less since. I have gone to Windows full time, and when I needed a new phone I considered an android for a while until deciding on an iPhone SE.

Show off your shiny new horsr vibrator.

 

Bring a rooster with you. Stroke your cock while you're there.

Come Bloody Angel

Break off your chains

And look what I've found in the dirt.

 

Pale battered body

Seems she was struggling

Something is wrong with this world.

 

Fierce Bloody Angel

The blood is on your hands

Why did you come to this world?

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

Everybody turns to dust.

 

The blood is on your hands.

 

The blood is on your hands!

 

Pyo.

Go out of your way to annoy the people who work there for a living and have absolutely no influence whatsoever on the products and decisions Apple makes as a company.
