 Posted: Sat Sep 20, 2014 7:44 am Post subject: Wife to divorce husband because he spent 44 hrs in line for iPhone6 |
|

Last straw perhaps but I doubt that was the only reason
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2763326/Tearful-father-queued-44-hours-buy-new-iPhone-wife-dumped-month-ago-help-win-back.html
| Quote: | A heartbroken husband queued for 44 hours to buy the new iPhone 6 in a bid to win back his wife after she kicked him out – because of his obsession with gadgets.
Darius Wlodarski, 41, started queuing outside the Apple store in Cabot Circus, Bristol at midday on Wednesday to make sure he would definitely be able to get one of the handsets.
His wife Joanna called an end to the 20 year marriage after she accused him of valuing material possessions over his family.
But Mr Wlodarski, who was born in Poland but now lives in Swindon, Wiltshire, decided to make the peace and spend $800 on a new iPhone for her – despite being out of work.
He was determined to keep a promise he made to her before their marriage hit the rocks and paid for the device on a credit card. |

Did I read a different article. 
He waited in line for 44 hours to get the iPhone for his ex wife in hopes of getting her back.

No, you didn't.
I love gadgets too. Read news sites and forums, eagerly await announcements from various trade shows, etc. However, I've never understood why people are willing to camp out for days or even a week to buy them. The only thing I'd be willing to wait in line for more than a day would be event tickets.

She could've set it to vibrate and he then calls her repeatedly. That's how versatile those iPhones are. The only problem is that the 6s are bigger than the 5s. They're a tougher fit.

Most of these live-in-line freaks just probably go on themselves without a diaper, Jo. The Jordan shoe, teen girl vampire novel, or the marginally updated tech gadget is the goal. It's like a marathon for pasty indoor people. Same dogged mentality, but done while sitting on dimply glutes. Extra points for those who bring their light sabers for impromptu battles.

| Leave man. Have some dignity. What kind of excuse is that for a wife to leave her husband? I assume she never watches soap operas, and is completely perfect as a wife? She's not worth a flip-phone. |
