      Yeah, the arm of Apple that sets up and runs their stores have gone from super-friendly and as flexible as possible to pretty much dickmunch-levels of unhelpfulness. Apparently the reasoning was that they were losing money on them, and hired a new overseer about 4 years ago to turn that around.

      The Apple Stores around here try to make space for people between appointments whenever possible, though, so just how draconian they're being is entirely up to the training your hipster or barely-college Apple associate is. (Note: That was a stereotype. I know that was a stereotype. Many jokes require incorrect statements. Sheesh.)

                  I mean, I already hated Bono, but oh look- he's openly a whiny, sexist manchild now.

                  (I mean, really, 'no outlets for male anger'? We need specific space for that in music? And only rap/hip-hop? Does he not know about this entire genre called METAL?!)

                    @auspice ...wasn't U2 one of the first rock bands to lack any masculinity whatsoever?

                    I mean, modern rock is basically the U2ification of rock. Bland, processed garbage without a hint of real emotion or struggle in it.

                    ...it's a bit like shitting the bed and then complaining about the shit in the bed.

                      Pretty much. U2 is about as bland as it fucking comes.

                        So we should ignore The Partridge Family, then?

                            What I consider doesn't matter; during that era, The Partridge Family was considered rock.

                                @auspice a good punching bag is a great outlet for male anger
                                edit: well, any anger, really. buy one and try it out. remember to close your fist, though, thumbs out, not in.

                                  @deadculture And get /gloves/ because, those things will destroy your hands if you don't have gloves or wrapped in tape.

                                    @lithium Yeah, that's pretty solid advice for people not used to punching overall. Tape and gloves!

                                      I really kind of want to get a speed bag. But with my luck and coordination, I'll just end up giving myself a black eye....

                                        @aria Speed bags are amazingly tricky to learn at first. It's a rhythm that changes based on personal style and /how/ you tap that thing. It takes practice for everyone, because every speed bag is also unique in how it responds. The only people that walk up to a speed bag and just nail it perfectly over and over and over upon first blush are essentially professional fighters who are so practiced at noticing timing it's become instinctive.
