iPhone users who think the iPhone is the only phone anyone should ever use. They defend it and harass others who are not iPhone users.
I walked in the Apple Store with my Samsung and everyone looked at me like I had 3 heads. They're all iPhone nazis.

Get the iphone nazi mug.An iPhone is an overpriced line of smartphones released by Apple annually for the casual market. Usually behind the competition and is labelled as"premium", just for the price. Also is considered "innovative" by Apple and it's legion of amatures, contrary to reality.
Casual: Hey, got the latest iPhone 467s Plus Air!
Sane person: Why? Could have got an Android smartphone with better specs for a fraction of that price...
Casual: But, but, your jealous!!!! It's innovative and you hate cuz you can't afford one!!
Sane person: Whatever, just saying. No need to justify the fact you got ripped off.

Get the iPhone "Ex" mug.(FINANCE) an initial public offering of stock in a company by a private equity fund that already owns it.
ILLUSTRATION
Suppose we have a company, HCA, that currently a publicly traded corporation. Now, some people with a lot of money arrange to borrow even more money, buy ALL the stock in HCA, and then turn it into a private corporation. All of the shares of stock are withdrawn and the company no longer has to publish its financial data with the SEC.
In theory, the new ownership can totally restructure the management; invest in new assets; divest old assets; retrain staff; or otherwise refurbish HCA so it does its job better and more cheaply. After doing this, it sells the new HCA to the public for much more than it paid for it, and everyone comes out a winner.
In practice, PE fund raids HCA to the tune of $2.5 billion and saddles it with the gigantic finance costs of its own LBO. Investors think they're buying a set percentage of HCA when they buy shares, but they're really just extending the process of vacuuming cash from the pockets of investors.

MIKE: So I hear that KKR and Bain Capital are selling HCA back to the public. A new IPO, huh?
MARGARET: Avoid it. Ordinary IPO's by companies going public for the first time are doing much better.
MIKE: But that's crazy! It's a sponsored IPO! By KKR and Bain Capital! It's got to be good! They'll still own most of HCA afterward, so they'll do what it takes to make sure the price stays high.
MARGARET: No, they don't care what the share price does so long as they get your money out of you. In the meantime, they've looted the company in the most inefficient way possible: using an LBO financed with junk bonds.
MIKE: Ouch, I guess my head is glad I talked to you about it but my heart is a greasy stain in the pavement.

Get the sponsored IPO mug.The act of a perpetrator taking a horrific bowel movement, leaving said bowel movement unflushed, and closing the lid, which allows it to ferment for an extended period of time. Later on, an unsuspecting victim, who walks into the bathroom to relieve his or herself, is already positioned closely over the toilet to lift the cover, and is nearly knocked over by the sight and smell of the atocity, causing them to rush back over the bowl for the immediately induced vomiting. The still unflushed bowl, now with vomit added to the stew, is even more potent than before, and the victim is forced to look at this mess again, and induces more vomiting, as they struggle to reach the flush mechanism to end the vicious cycle.
Guy 1: My stomach is still in knots from when I recieved some Las Vegas Ipecac when I got back late last night.
Guy 2: Whoa, I thought that was an urban legend. Wait, so who did it?
Guy 1: I...I can't figure it out. We were the only two people that slept here last night, and I left for the night after you.
Guy 2: You left with the girls...you think, maybe one of them?
Guy 1: No way, I ruled that out. You know how chicks are with shit, they would never leave any evidence they did the deed in someone else's throne room. Especially not this one last night...this was done with the intent to harm...with malice.
