It was indeed rather emotive, and I can see condescending in there as well... I apologize to whomever I offended, but I maintain that it is/was an irrational thing to do.

When I was in line, I was wondering what a lot of people were thinking about us waiting at the Apple store. I thought, they may be thinking, 'it's just a phone sheesh' or 'what dorks..'

Then I thought about what I may say to them seeing their little habits... Some people will travel far and wait in multiple hour (1-2) for a 30 sec ride... Pay money for a horrible movie... Pay big bucks for a certain ANYTHING (Car, etc) when that's not really needed... So if you're the person thinking that about people in line for an iphone, think about what you do. But most of the time those people never do so because they think they're Gods gift to the planet for some reason. Here's a funny clip I saw with one such reporter.
