Well, this is the 3rd iPhone launch that I’ll experience up close and personal. This time, however, I will not be involved in the bastardry and insanity that is waiting in line like a goddamned fool to get a phone. No, I’m just going to take some pictures of the crowds whenever I feel like wandering over to the local Apple Store.
I don’t understand things like product launches drawing this kind of crowd. Movies and concerts I get, but all of this hubbub for a piece of Chinese plastic that is WAY better designed, but not completely unlike other pieces of Chinese plastic to hit the market. It’s insane, and I like it. A LOT.
Don’t get me wrong: I own some Apple stock and I’d like to see it go up to the 160+ range this summer so I can sell off and relieve my debt ratio that has given me Goatse-like pains the past 2 years. When Apple does well, it helps out the rest of the “Mac economy” so to speak, and I am just such a member of that economy. More success is good. Watching crazy douchebags break their credit cards doing it: priceless.
Just thought of something: they should sell the JesusPhone in vending machines at all Starbucks and Saddleback Church locations. Please contact me so I can provide a mailing address for commission checks thankyouverymuch.
