Honestly let's have some dignity and not buy into this vapid pretentious idiocy.
Right, I don't understand why these weird hacky services are making headlines. If you want to have a blue bubble, just buy an iPhone. They're not actually THAT expensive, you can usually buy last year's model for under $500 if you wait for a deal and you're willing to commit to a carrier. Or if you really can't afford that, you can get an older iPhone basically for free. Even a 3 year old model gets you a blue bubble.
Or, if you're not an insecure child that gives in to peer pressure, get whatever phone you want.
My thoughts exactly. It’s fucking childish to make such a fuss over the color of a text bubble. These kids need to grow up.
