I'm having dinner with wife and friends last night and I mention that people are queueing up for the iPhone X. Everyone at the table wants one, but no one was aware of the new UI changes, wireless charging, or the NOTCH.
I went full bitch mode about the fucking notch on the iPhone X. I was saying things like "I bet Steve is rolling over in his grave" and "their engineers are lazy as eff" and my friends really could've cared less. They saw more screen real estate and a new flashy version of the slab they know and love.
At one point I was getting the ole "I hated iPhone too before I got one..." but here's the thing. I had one. iPhone 1 thru 3G S I was there. And you know what, it was awesome. It was the best thing out there. To move from a moto razr to iPhone was mind-blowing. But then my mom got one, then an iPad, then a MacBook Air, then apple TV. You see what happened there. My little piece of awesome tech was gone, forever. Now it's beautiful, overpriced, and built for grandma's.
And I'm pissed about this fucking notch!
I'm literally becoming a grumpy old man.
