People do the same thing with phones too. Always wondered how many former console warriors graduated up into the more "mature" phone wars.
Phone wars are even worse. Simply because everyone has a phone. I've been around actual phone war battles in real life, it's terrible.
Like my wife for instance, bought an Iphone 5, I come home and see it for the first time, and I was like, "Oh hell no!". "Nobody in my household will own an Iphone, drive a BMW, or wear American Eagle clothing." I prompted shoved the Iphone in the garbage disposal, grinded it up, and filed for divorce. Plenty of room in the trailer now!
Seriously though, I try to avoid those conversations at all costs.
