One of my work colleagues literally sleeps outside the London Apple store when any new phone is coming

A total twat.

I have nothing against quality purchases, in fact, I put quality over quantity...But I certainly don't feel validated in any way through the purchases I make. I'm all about experiences, generally in life, rather than things. I bet that wanker that lines up at the Apple store won't be laying on his death bed saying things like, thank the almighty I bought that iPhone 13. (Or maybe he will.)
