I-Don't Give A Shit
What the hell is wrong with people? Seriously. You want to know what the biggest problem with America (and western society in general) is? Gay marriage? Abortions? Cuss words on the TV? BOOBS on the TV?!?!? Internet porn? The general lack of values? Not enough people going to church?
No. None of that is a problem. So what is the problem?
Oh yea the new I-Phone can also be used as an internet browser, play MP3 files, play movie files, and what else? Thats it? Oh. I see.
People stood in like since Tuesday to get this thing. Tuesday! Which beings up an interesting question. How can some loser who has nothing better to do than stand in a fucking line for 4 days possibly have a job and be able to afford to plunk down $500 for a phone? Can they even afford the monthly cell phone bill? Who knows. But they will be the coolest person in the homeless shelter. Until they sell it to someone for $100 so they can buy bum wine.
So if you are a fool who thinks a phone can really make your life better, stick your head in a gas oven or something. You are just consuming resources, and you have nothing of value to return to society.
And no - you do not really need one. You probably already have a MP3 player. You do not need to access the internet while you are in the movie theater. And you probably already have a cell phone. So what is the point?
But yet - people are going nuts over this thing. People are packing Apple stores yelling and cheering as other morons take the black boxes away from the cash register.
I just do not get it. But I am pretty sure this is the reason why things are going down the tubes. This is the result in allowing public education to fall to unacceptable standards.
If I were a criminal, I would plan a robbery of an Apple store right before they close.

I don't think I would buy one unless it babysat my children.
I know Doozie wouldn't get one either unless it had a retractable knife.
I despise combination things, say you lose it. Congrats! You have now lost your laptop/mp3 player/cell/photos and contacts in one fail swoop.
LOL. Yes. Evil people those. I would make fun of them, but then, I was in line all night at WalMart *shudder* (at Christmas) to buy the Wii game for my grandtwins.
Moron and idiot describe me faily well. BTW, I always knew that I was a bigger problem to America than Gay marriage or abortion.
I would not stand in line for anything....because eventually it will become available in plenty. Yes we had to wait 6 months to find a wii, but we survived just fine. we delayed gratification. no one has heard of that anymore
Actually ba doozie, it was fun to do what I did. I'm not kidding. And the twins got the game for XMAS, and I am the queen of all Grannys!
I think delayed gratification is a great thing...particularly during S.E.X.
Emma - I might buy it if I could send the phone out to get pizza and beer.
TLP - the Wii is something cool. And it was Christmas. At Christmas time normal sanity is on hold. Everyone knows this. Plus, you were able to piss off the Wal-Mart night manager.
Doozie - I might line up for the right thing. But not for a phone.
Last thing I stood in line for a long time for was to see The Empire Strikes Back. I was 14 years old, my brother was 10. We waited for three hours to see it. But somehow a 14 year old and a 10 year old doing that for a movie they loved is a little different than everyone drooling over a new piece of technology. Wait six months. It will either be readily available and cheaper or it will be "out." Or both.
A 10 and 14 year old standing in line to be the first to see a movie is no big deal. Everyone does this. In high school one of my friends who NEVER did anything skipped to go buy tickets to some Star Trek movie. I had him pick one up for me - why not. But I did not stand in line. For the "First" Star Wars movie that was actually the 4th film I did the tag team stand in line thing. We split the group in half. While group A was in line group B could go to the bar or get food or whatever. Then when it was time for Group B to stand in line Group A could run off and get laid or whatever. When the time came, whoever was in line had to buy two tickets, so they could hand one off to someone in the other group.
It was kind of fun. First off some nerds were getting pissed that we thought of this and they did not. People were dressed as Yoda and Ewocks and having light saber fights and talking like Darth Vader and speaking Wookie and everything. I felt extra super mega sane that day.
I only want one so that I can come to your blog when I'm out drinking or in rehab.
Lammy - I never considered the use an I-Phone could have while out drinking. I think I need one now.
