Get a life, folks
I’m always baffled to see things like this.
Its people queueing up outside the new Apple Store due to open in Sydney tomorrow night at 5 pm. For fuck’s sake, its a computer, phone and music players store!
Get a life people, especially:
- Rochelle Quantock - who came from Mebourne at 4 am this morning so she could get first position in the line
- Mike Kauffman - who flew in from the USA, and is a serial queuer, and estimates he has attended between 20 to 30 Apple store openings.
- Moyzsckya Belle - flew in from Brisbane only to find the first position had already been taken when he arrived outside the store at 8:25am. He has owned every version of iPod ever released by Apple, and he and his wife had almost 10 Mac computers between them.
Wonder if these people were among those who lined up similarly when Krispy Kreme first opened here?

Did anyone tell them that the iPhone actually comes out on the 11th of July?

Obviously you aren’t an Apple/Mac enthusiast.
I haven’t waited in lines days ahead of time but I have been there on opening day for a product before.
I am a Mac/Apple person.

Mamaflo - no problems with being an enthusiast for something and getting in to get it on Day 1. Its the camping out and lining up for hours/days that is bizarre.

I saw them on the news last night, all rushing in the store when it opened. Oh I laffed and laffed and so did the bloke because he’s a network engineer with NO respect for apple. It’s OK to bond over what you perceive to be other peoples lunacy…isn’t it?

Although Singaporeans are known to enjoy queuing, I never like seeing a line more than 5 people. It is baffling to see people queuing up for things like this and yet it could be equally baffling to them for people not to queue up like them.

What’s with the guy who flew from the States with his kid, just to come to the opening. What a loser family they are. I hope they at least took in some of the sights before flying back home, but something tells me they wouldn’t have.
