Excited for the release of the next iPhone? Well, no matter how excited you are, you will never be as excited as the man who was already waiting in line for his, wearing face paint and a giant cardboard iPhone cutout, as spotted by CNET.

We’re presumably about seven months away from the release of the next iPhone — these things tend to come in yearly cycles, and the previous iPhone, the iPhone 5s, was released in September 2013. But a Japanese blogger and Apple fan by the name of Yoppy recently took his spot outside his local Apple Store, at the front of “the line” for the iPhone 5s follow-up. (Of course, it being February, and there being no rumors that the next iPhone is anywhere close to a launch, there was not much of a line behind him.)

Shouldn't he be busy not having sex with women?

How do the people that do this kind of crap do this for weeks/months at a time? No income, no work, junk food...

I'm surprised the Apple factory gave him off long enough to go camp out. And yes, I know he is Japanese and I am referencing Chinese, but whats the difference? All I see are squinty eyes, delicious food, and Nike/Apple products on the horizon.

People freak out way too much when a new iphone comes out. It's just a fricking phone! I'm still rocking the 4 and don't care as long as it make calls, sends/receives emails, and lets me view pron.

Funny part is that from I've been able to tell, about 90% of the people out there literally NEVER master whatever cool new features are added to the latest phone. Most of them basically use it just like they used their phone three generations prior.

You are very correct. If I get a new phone I probably won't use any of the new features.
