Default Anyone seen this anti-android propoganda?

Take a few minutes if you are bored and read some of this guys rant's they are very comical. There is so much miss-information here! Someone on another forum posted this and I thought you guys may get a kick out of it!

It makes me wonder how many times he has used the word "fandroids". I read only a few words of each post and stumbled across it. This is some pretty rampant fanboyism.

Edit: This worst part about this guy is that he is an Android user. :/

As soon as I see the words fanboy, fandroid, iFan, etc. I start to ignore anything that follows. I understand loyalty to an OS or brand as I am a pretty loyal to Android/Google and I would consider myself a fan of the phones and the OS (kind of obvious for a mod on an Android forum, right?). I am also a non-fan of Apple products, but I wouldn't say that I hate them or anyone that uses them. I actually recommend WP7, BlackBerry and iPhones to people all the time. Blind hating or loving of a product line is rather foolish, IMHO. The only thing it ever does is spread rumors (Antenna gate, fragmentation, malware) and foster more feelings of hate from others. Besides, the right phone for someone is the right phone and as long as someone gets the right phone for them, who cares.

It is the Jerry Seinfeld Show of blogs. (A blog about nothing)

And, just like Seinfeld, we all looked. Can I please have that half hour back?

Half hour?!?!? I looked at it for about half a minute and hit the little X on that tab.

I was referring to the one and only episode of Seinfeld I ever watched ... only spent about 45 seconds on that site, but it felt like half an hour.

Wow, I thought I was one of the only people who didn't like Seinfeld. People always are talking how "great" and "hilarious" it is. In my opinion it is dreadfully boring.

Also, in regards to the blog the Sjobs guy is doing a mighty fine job of trolling him. I don't get why it's so hard for people to laugh, and walk away. Trying to convince a fanboy that he's wrong is like trying to convince an extremely religious person to become an atheist. (I would guess a 99.9% fail rate.)

This kind of closed minded, elitist thinking makes me angry enough, I had to close my browser entirely and go think of other things for a bit.

I personally would refrain from propagating this. The blogger is obviously looking for and thriving on attention. Best thing to do is to ignore people like that. Even being banned from a site doesn't phase him.
