shut up. whats your criticism, again? that apple is successful? stop being a snob.
and id rather see apple's commercials over microsoft's WE'RE MAKING DREAMS COME TRUE ads. sure the apple ones are elitist and untrue, but at least they're witty. |
They really aren't. And my criticism is Apple is successful for no good god damn reason, and they overcharge for their overpopular shit.

They release the same shit as everyone else. Charge alot more. Then somehow manage to make it into a news item, so people buy them to, yes. Be trendy elitist hipsters.
Also the clickwheel sucks.

I have to ask, Tony, how many companies occupy that portion of your mind dedicated to things you hate? I mean, based on your criteria for hating Apple, which seem to be basically that they overcharge for things and advertise, I can think of a lot of companies you should be spewing hatred for, and yet you've never mentioned. Do you go around every day venting your rage at BMW's and Gibson's success, too, or is it exclusively Apple?

All ads are untrue, and most are elitist. Do you really think a Lexus ES is worth any more money than a Camry?
Then again, I'm not one to dictate to another how to respond to advertising. Live your life, I was just curious.

Oh no, I was just giving an example of two products I know are basically the same except for the badge and price tag. You never seem to jump in very venomously except when someone talks about Apple, so I was just curious who else you felt that way about.
