Why do people like something just, because other people do?

Like the Alex from target guy. People would care less if other didn't like him.

I don't know either

To be with the in crowd and not be looked at a loser for not going with what's popular
Kind of like how everyone has an iphone now and those that don't kind are made out to not be popular etc

To fit in, blend in with the crowd and feel "normal". People also think that if they have something in common such as likings people will like them

The majority of humans are sheep walking on two legs

To be kind

  • Why people like iPhones? I can't never get people who like iphones to give a good reason, why? Some say it easy, but a lot have no clue on how to use their own phones. Can someone explain something useful that great about iphone? Everything they think is special other phones have been doing for years.
  • Why does everyone hate me because I like Apple products? I recently bought the iPhone 5S and I have an old iPad and everyone is hating on me. Why is there so much hate? I have had both android products and apple products and they were both great for different things. When I look at comments everyone says that Apple is stupid and etc. Do people have enough arrogance to do that? I have no problem with android. Can't people understand that we but the phone that best fits our needs?
  • Why do some people like to act like iPhones and iPads are status symbols? If it were, I mean you'd have the whole lifestyle to keep up. But a lot of people buy them. I'll admit they're both convenient but I find it a little weird to think anything of owning one. (This is in general, and not directed towards how people act to me - just my observation).
  • Why do most rich people act like whiny crybabies when something goes wrong against them? I'm not blaming anyone for anything. But I'm sick and tired of hearing rich and most fortunate people in the world shouting injustice only when it effects them. There are at least 40 million americans who can't even afford an iPhone. The Jennifer Lawerence nudies leak story screams about how little class most rich people actually have.
