Appleause

ap-ple-ause, (apəlˈlôz)

Variation of "applause".

The rabid excitement following an Apple product launch, and/or praise of a new Apple product as the grand solution to the collective issues of the previous iterations.

This usually leads to an impulse purchase resulting in either:

1) vehement denial of any and all flaws regarding said product
2) bemoaning any and all flaws regarding said product and its rushed or illogical release
There was so much appleause surrounding the release of the white iPhone that no one paid attention to the fact that it was an identical device with no new features.

Best example: watch any Apple keynote or product launch.

Beatnik Applause

A form of applause whereby the middle finger and thumb of both hands are repeatedly snapped/clicked instead of clapped. Beatnik applause was developed in the cafes of the 1950s/1960s by the Beatnik/Beat Generation. Many "Beat Poet" fans of this period now suffer from severe arthritic inflammation of the thumb and middle finger.
POET: "The room suddenly went into a mad darkness. A spotlight pierced blackness like a white devil's knife. A voice rose and screamed. Words of beauty cutting my throat. A poem of life, of love, of doom. My years on Earth summed and fooled."

applastic

The extremely cheap but shiny plastic that all apple products are made from.

Treated with a special shine agent which an iTard can detect from almost 4 miles away with their sense of tard.
A metal version is rumoured to be available, but has been proven to be nothing more than a thin veneer of aluminium over more applastic, with the logo showing through.

Comes in any colour, so long as that colour is white.

Has a rotten apple silhouette stamped in every sheet.
iTard: OOOO look at that new fad! its crap.
Normal person: No it's not, it's functional, sensibly priced and fulfils a purpose.
iTard: THIS one is better its the new i-<insert name here> waffle waffle....
Normal person: But its covered in applastic <feels sick>

Steve Jobs: WHEN WILL THE NEW APPLASTIC BE READY!!
AppleZombie: sooooooon, sir..... braaaaaiiiiinsss....
Steve Jobs: Excellent! Now I will dominate my pathetically small market share of applastic addicts, iTards and dumbasses who know nothing about technology and have more money than sense EVEN MORE!!
