You see, but you do not observe.

 This is an iPhone 7S by all accounts and I'm not buying one because I'm going to wait for the iPhone X

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
