maybe it's because I'm getting old and crotchety, or perhaps it's because I didn't get a good night sleep last night (it's stinking hot here and we've no air-con), but my internet today is full of self-entitled whiners.
ffs people, cut the lady some slack. all this fuss over a $5 cover art app!?
Sure, she broke a promise, there doesn't seem much doubt about that, but don't we all? Who here has never broken a $5 promise? Who's never said they'd be home at 6, but didn't get in 'til 6:30? Who's never said they'd meet for coffee, but then couldn't make it?
And no, I don't accept the argument that this is the same as if Apple reneged on an Aperture promise or similar. It's not binary, it's a scale, but $5 is at one end and $100 is a lot further up.
I realise this is an unpopular position, but I just can't stand all this negative attitude all heaped on one person. would you behave like this if she was in the same room as you?
