[rant] ‘He is such an IFone’
After having to put up with co-workers and friends gushing ‘ooh, wanna hang out with me and my cool iPhone (in Santana Row)’, I am coining a new term:
iFone :
- When applied to a person:
Used to describe a person so full of himself but very little substance/depth - When applied to a thing / coding methodology / language / operating system
When a thing is so hyped and doesn’t live up to it
Examples:
- oh, he is such an iFone
- oh, it is such an iFone
Fans of Sienfield will remember the quote from Jerry : ‘He is such a Phony’ from episode ‘Parking Space’

Note : The word is iFone, not iPhone (which is, I am sure a trademark by Apple Inc)
