10 people who just didn’t want to queue for an iPhone 6
So, it turns out there were a lot of people REALLY wanting the iPhone 6 today, as there were queues all over the world, full of Apple fans hoping to be the first to get their hands on the new Apple phone.
Of course, Twitter was on hand, as always, to mock the whole idea of queuing hours (especially considering last night’s storms) just for a phone. A PHONE! And users took delight in everything about it, including the first person to get the phone who immediately dropped it! So, we’ve picked our favourite tweets, from people who just don’t understand why anyone would queue for a phone, especially one that you could’ve pre-ordered online.
Getting up early isn’t acceptable…
I don’t understand why you’d queue up at silly o’clock in the morning just for the iPhone 6..

And some people have other things to do.
Why would anyone queue up for a mobile phone? You Definitely need to get out more if the iPhone 6 tops your priority list today.

Wouldn’t you rather queue for a drink?
If you spend more than 5 minss queuing for a phone, it’s time to come to the bar, grab a drink & look at your life! http://t.co/fQosDV1vRO

Somebody in nyc camped 19 days for the iPhone 6. Seriously if no one else is in queue, you’re not queuing you’re homeless
