Don’t even get me started about iphones! This past Christmas I refused to even look at this guy’s new iphone! Everybody else was standing around looking all impressed while he demostrated his “light sabre” app. I told him “sorry, I don’t even look at Apple products” which isn’t really true, I just didn’t want to indulge yet another iphone poser in his quest for iphone attention. Needless to say, he was not happy with me.

Totally get where you are coming from here. When people go green or embrace the environment in a positive way, I applaud their effort, but those that have to bring it into every single conversation and pat themselves on the back in hopes of generating accolades are pretty annoying.

and iPhones / Google Android Phones. iPhone owners are possible worse the Prius owners…

This has been a pet peeve of mine as well. And not just with the Prius but when anybody uses some product to prop up their identity it makes my skin crawl! I think it is a very American habit. Sadly, consuming is what we do best in this country[or used to do best] and what they are trying to say is “I’m a better consumer than you”.
I live in redneck country and here people do the same thing but instead of Prius’ it’s their shiny new pick-ups and Hummers. Sad.
