72-hour mental health hold if you're angry about iPhones out of stock.

[aGameOfThrones]

The story we all knew would eventually break: A fight ignited in a line outside an Apple store in California.*

Police arrested two men around 7:30 this morning who started fistfighting while waiting in line for new iPhones outside a Pasadena Apple Store, AP reports.*

Police also placed a third man on a 72-hour mental health hold after he ran enraged out into the street. Apparently, he appeared to be one of the homeless men paid (and also promised beer, cigarettes, and pizza) to wait in line for other people's iPhones.

Police Lt. Jason Clawson said that the man grew upset when the store ran out of new smartphones because it meant that he would no longer receive any payment.

Ya know the cult like behavior exhibited by iPhone people creeps me out a little

[alucard13mm]

Guess the homeless guy should've asked the guy for 20-50% of the payment first.

Two guys got pistol whipped right down the street from me at the AT&T store while waiting in line overnight. I have a 3 year old Android. Give a crap about iPhones and even if I did I damned sure wouldn't spend the night on a sidewalk to get one the DAY it comes out.

No cell. No cordless. When I was little, my grandfather taught me a lesson about cordless phones. He had one of those radio shack scanners (bought pre ban) where you could listen to the neighbor's cordless phone conversations.


I have one of these next to my desk and another out in the garage:

Yes I know. I type FU in the texting field on occasion as a special message to them.

I have one of those too. Although mine is one of the newer models, with the modular cords. I was really surprised to find out that it worked on the digital internet phone service I have.

It was individuals who didn't want to wait in line paying a homeless guy $20 to stand in line for them and save them a spot.

Apple is headquartered in the land of Scientology and hopeless statism. Not a coincidence.

[MichaelDavis]

This type of stuff happens far too often. One man was killed while waiting in line for Air Jordan's. A few days ago, a man was stabbed over his copy of Grand Theft Auto V. This is the type of society we now live in.

What if Siri can't find anything. Do they record if you cus her out.
