One For The Mac Users

Love those Mac ads? Watch this one. This one is HILARIOUS, and really says it all.

Ever notice how most Mac users are skinny? It's because of all the calories they burn because they can't SHUT UP about how great their Macs are. What is it about Apple that makes its users unable to shut their mouths? Everywhere I go, there's another assclown with a Mac preaching about how much better Macs are than PCs.

They regurgitate lines DIRECTLY from Apple's marketing campaign, like "it just works." I have the following rebuttals to this argument:

If everything on a Mac just works, then why does a website called "Mac fix it" exist, assholes? Here are a few choice topics on macfixitforums.com:

-Login window stuck!
-lower caSe "S" key not working!!
-Menu bar keeps flashing
-I can't drag and drop!

Waaaah, boo hoo! I can't drag and drop! Dumbass. And you can't do a lower case "S"? How the green hell does that happen?

Looks like your Macs aren't perfect after all, which leads me to my second point:

I don't know why Mac users get so defensive when you question them. I mean, Apple is a company that has built its entire user base around the fact that its users can't do simple things like turn their computers on. Hell, most Mac users can't even talk without using their hands, which ranks their intelligence somewhere between a simian and a sack full of doorknobs.

Stupid user base aside, I will never own a Mac. It's not so much that I'm a PC loyalist. I'm not. It's that I'm not stylish enough to own one. Most iPod commercials feature guys with long hair, chicks roller skating, and guys wearing fedoras. I don't shop at UnderGround, and I don't . I feel like in order to have a Mac, I need to be:
- An artist.
- In a band.
- Or unemployed.

After the recent Apple conference, Mac fans were elated. One person was quoted as saying "I've had a Macintosh now for a total of 35 days, and I'm really excited to be part of the Mac community." Part of the Mac community? It's a computer, not a social movement, r-tard! I feel like Apple is not just selling computers, they're selling a way of life, and I'm not ready to be that heavily invested in a product.

The only thing that's cool about Apple these days are the iPod's and the iTunes. And even iTunes is getting irritating. Remember back in the late 90's, everyone used RealPlayer?

Then those oxygen theifs at Real Network got greedy, and tried to get their application to take over your entire PC, and people stopped using it. Same thing is happening with QuickTime now. You can't install QuickTime anymore unless you download iTunes. And I can't even use iTunes for what I want to do anyways. Check this out, from the ACTUAL user agreement to install iTunes:
"You also agree that you will not use these products for the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, or nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons."

Listen, if I want to manufacture biological weapons with my copy of iTunes, I will, fascists.

God Bless!

Speaking of useless news on websites - this is front page at msnbc.com ...

Humans caught pubic lice, aka "the crabs," from gorillas roughly three million years ago, scientists now report.

Rather than close encounters of the intimate kind, researchers explained humans most likely got the lice, which most commonly live in pubic hair, from sleeping in gorilla nests or eating the apes.

"It certainly wouldn't have to be what many people are going to immediately assume it might have been, and that is sexual intercourse occurring between humans and gorillas," explained researcher David Reed of the Florida Museum of Natural History. "Instead of something sordid, it could easily have stemmed from an activity that was considerably more tame."

On the same site is a post about that Loose Change video that Bad was pumping a few posts ago ... it's starting to look like all (barely)Bad does is copy other people's work?

Wow, shitty thing to get caught doing by your friends! Copy ... Paste.

lol whatevs, hes admitted to using other peoples shit before

Well, I never comment on the board, BUT...

Longtime devotees of the website will remember that I have mentioned several times over the last few years that I do indeed OCCASIONALLY borrow stuff from other sites.

This is not news.

Guess what? I didn't produce the video I posted today either, nor any of the ones posted previously.

Nor did I produce the TV show with Abruzzi on it on the banner at the top of the site currently.

Nothing gets past you sleuths, does it?

Kids, MAYBE 5% of my stuff is from other sites. And I'm not copying and pasting, douche. I hear a joke, I re-tell it. I don't recall where it's from or sometimes even that I'm doing it.

Bibliography? You must be kidding, B-Rush. This site is supposed to be for fun, if you think I'm going to go so far as to RESEARCH where I get jokes, you have overestimated my passion for this site.

And dude, do you REMEMBER those Comm classes? Forget listening, that teacher was just lucky I didn't bludgeon her with my laptop battery.

Whether you we're aware of this small fact before this or not, if you don't like that, seriously, don't read me. I don't care. It's not like I troll the streets during the day like GreenPeace trying to get people to sign up and read this.

B-Rush said...

Hey there BaDman - sorry dude - one thing the internet still hasn't mastered is 'tone of voice'.

I WAS trying to take a joking little jab... didn't mean to offend sorry.

And actually I don't remember much of comm... just Warcraft III with four of us in the back row for 3 hours a week.

B-Rush:
Nah dude, internet never mastered my tone of voice either. no offense was taken, not from your part.

Was that the same COMM class where you guys went to the co-ordinator? The one me and W took by correspondance?

B-Rush said...

nah - that was the 'nude locker room' incident Comm class. 240

its fine to use other guys material, but at least acknowledge it and not use the entire slab of content pretty much claming his viwes are completey your own. try to use your own mind and not rip off others!

Anonymous said...

hopefully BAD rips this guy a new one

Anonymous said...

he already said that he just remembers the jokes, like when a freind tells u a joke and u use it on some other friends... r u a COMM teacher or something?

and didnt he also say that he wasnt goign to be bothered sourcing whether he could remember where he got them or not?

- n -

Anonymous said...

The problem isn't that he "remembered" the joke ... the problem is that he blatantly cut and pasted it from another site to his - he didn't "relate" the text or summarize it, he copied it!

There is no gray area here - he is out of line and one has to wonder about the nature of the rest of his posts and those in the future. What about the BadSaga's, are they from somewhere else too?

“And I'm not copying and pasting, douche. I hear a joke, I re-tell it. I don't recall where it's from or sometimes even that I'm doing it.”
Anyone who actually went and looked at the other site can see that you did copy and paste and change a few lines, unless you have a photographic memory that is…
“I don't recall where it's from or sometimes even that I'm doing it.”
Well, considering Maddox only posted this rant the day before you posted it (well, and the fact that you went back and copied it) shows that you do know where it is from, unless you get advance viewing of his material or your photographic memory is very selective.

Comments about "no one is agreeing with you" is crap. There are a number of people posting seperate "anon" posts not just the one person.

I agree with you Justin. This however doesn't mean i wont read this page yet the poeple i deemed as intelligent in relation to their pov has now changed.
