NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties agree to abide by the agreements herein, enumerated in the terms of the articles set forth below.
This is actually pretty darn funny.
Heresy. No quarter asked. None given.
The comments are predictable, with few picking up the spirit of the thing.
(The comments over there, I mean.)

All u androiders…..kill urself!
Not sure how they missed “Fandroid”.
My shit-talk is wittier than yours. Booyah.
Fuck Samsung. Who gives a shit? You know how many of my friends went iPhone shopping and came back with a crappy Samsung and they can’t run apps, can’t run iTunes, can’t do AirPlay, and they keep saying, “I hate this phone!” but they paid the same as for an iPhone. So fuck Samsung.
Yeah, it’s how you separate the trolls from the partisans. If you can’t laugh at your own obsessions you aren’t even trying to be objective.
