    For a little fun I decided to start a special thread in recognition of the trolls on this forum. This is in the spirit of Jeff Foxworthy's "You might be a Redneck" series. ;)

    If you never owned a Mac but make comments about how bad they are, YOU MIGHT BE AN APPLE FORUM TROLL.

    If you accuse others of being Apple fanboys because you cannot come up with a valid rebuttal, YOU MIGHT BE AN APPLE FORUM TROLL.

    If you post that a PC is more productive, cheaper and better than a Mac, YOU MIGHT BE AN APPLE FORUM TROLL.

    A special reminder:

    If you complain about this thread, YOU MIGHT BE AN APPLE FORUM TROLL.


    Feel free to chime in with your own "YOU MIGHT BE AN APPLE FORUM TROLL" jokes. :D

    This thread certainly isn't flamebaiting at all...

    to be fair, it is flamebait.

    nevertheless, it is at least somewhat true.

    especially when someone just tosses all thinking out the window, makes ridiculous claims, and then just proclaims everyone an Apple Fanboy when the *normals* come in with moderate and well thought out responses.

    The only ones it should get flamed by are trolls.

    This thread is certainly a flamebait nothing but fights can come up from it.
