.......is probably too stupid to be allowed to own a phone?

I mean FFS, what did they seriously think was going to happen?! People have upgraded then chucked their phones in water to check, and they want sympathy?!

Yanbu. I thought much the same when I saw it initially.

I want to know how such stupid people have enough funds to have purchased an iPhone.

Oi I'm not a stupid twat! Angry

Someone on FB (shock) actually believed this. Can't say I took much notice apart from wondering just HOW advanced is technology for an update to waterproof a phone?! Grin
Amazingly advanced to some.

My watch has a warranty for 50m under water and I don't even dare to get it wet.

Who chucks an iPhone under water just to check something that is not even hardware, just software????

I very carefully worded that!
so not all people that have iphones are twats but everyone that is a twat has an iphone!
In my experience...

Agree with toolittle
Twats and iphones seem to be mutually attracted for some reason.

I wonder how some people live when they are so stupid. Surely Darwin's law should come into play WinkGrin

Me and DP are both non twatty I phone and Audi drivers. Although the fact that we have matching cars and I Phones might suggest the opposite! Grin

I remember the hoax that 30 secs in a microwave would charge an iPhone. There are some very trusting people out there. It went doing chatroulette first, rather hilarious.

You mean a microwave can charge a phone? Wink

Yes Frusso. Try it. Thirty secs on 750 watt should do it.

FrussoHathor · 26/09/2013 22:09

Would 20secs in an 800watt work on an iPad?
