It’s all about “me-me-me” nowadays (not the 100 Gecs song) — it’s about people with main character syndrome, but some say that Apple users are just as pompous as Donnalyn. Is that true? We’ll find out.
What do you mean by main character syndrome?
It’s a phenomenon where a person makes any topic or question all about him/her. It is typically found among narcissists or influencers who just can’t get enough of themselves (e.g. Rendon Labador, Kakaibabe) — invalidating other people’s experiences and instead imposing their ‘I-have-experienced-worse-times-so-sit-down’ moments, leading to alienation and looking like a ‘whiney baby’ even though expressing it is valid.
Where does a typical Apple user come in contact with this?
Well, they associate an Apple user with having ‘main character syndrome’ because of alleged instances of looking down on Android users or feeling above anybody else just because they have the latest Apple device. Of course, this is debatable and very broad. While it may be true, not all Apple users are like that– but there’s only one Donnalyn Kakaibabe Bartolome.
Donnalyn ‘Kakaibabe’ | FACTORS | Typical Apple user |
A full blown kanto-themed birthday party with tutong cake | How they celebrate their birthdays? | Definitely not a manufactured ‘kanto’ themed party with tutong cake |
“Ako ho dati ay hamak na tagahugas lamang, pero nag-ipon ako at nakipaglaro sa sistema,be thankful ka sa cherry lobat mo now” | Do they validate feelings? | Maybe will lowkey flex their Apple device to you but never invalidate your feelings whatsoever |
Donnalyn: “Me, Myself, and I” P.S. And also how great she is at winning life yaasss kween | What do they post on social media? | Maybe some food porn, a picture or two of their dogs or cats, maybe a scenery but never about them all the time |
Half-assed apology followed by even more lowkey humble bragging | What happens when they screw up? | Apologize and move on, like a mature person |
“selfies with me” | Reasons they have an iPhone | Because of simplicity, durability, OS support, cameras, battery life |
“more selfies with me” | Reasons they might have an Android device | Customization, freedom, jailbreak potential, fun designs |
Yes | Kakaibabe? | No |
Kakaibabe kakaibabe kakaibabe Kakaibabe kakaibabe kakaibabe | 0nline seacut dahil… | Mostly because of photography or being a creative person |
Definitely may main character syndrome | VERDICT | Mukha lang may main character syndrome |
At least the Apple user has some decency to act like a normal human being with class, as opposed to what Donnalyn is doing right now. She should swallow it (which she did, good job though), improve herself, and next time, try to be an actual good-natured influencer. It’s not too late to cure you of the highly contagious main-character syndrome.
