‘You’re Telling Me in 2023, You Still Have a ’Droid?’ Why Teens Hate Android Phones
A recent survey of teens found that 87% have iPhones, and don’t plan to switch. They have their reasons.

Interesting figure that comes out of the article: 87% of US teens prefer iPhones. Also the explanations given aren't quite surprising, I guess it's mostly because of iMessage. Teens will feel like outcasts if they get an Android phone while their friends still use iMessage because of the green bubbles.
It's actually hilarious how we allowed consumerism to take us this far and that we have now peer pressure over smartphones.
“You’re telling me in 2023, you still have a ’Droid? [...] You gotta be at least 50 years old.”
ouch 😔
You're viewing a single thread.
The people who actually care more about what phone their friends are using enough to peer pressure them into getting a phone of a specific brand or model are about as dense as a black hole and about as smart as a bag of rocks.
Exactly. But that's the issue with everything these days.
People look down on you for all manner of things. Car clothes hair dog, job accent speech everything.
Vain is thy name. Get a grip of your life. Nobody should care.
If I don't infringe on your life then what I do should have no impact upon yours.
Are there supposed to be commas between those words? OR is Car clothes hair dog and job accent speech everything some new hip cool thing I don't know about?
Man hook hand car door?!
Its like "man bear pig"
It's fun because "clothes" and "accent" can be verbs, and given their position in the clause it almost looks like they should be but then you realize it makes no sense.
No. I couldn't be bothered. I'm lazy. You knew what I meant and you are doing exactly the thing I mentioned.
Not sure if troll or just my point being made exactly
