Idiocy Factor - 9: These people are dumb as brick.

| Ok,
let me start off by saying, I own a Mac, I work on a Mac, I build on a Mac,
I play on a Mac. Now, let me also say, I HATE OSX....and Apple's new "Switch"
campaign. What ever happened to Jeff Goldblum? Did Apple decide that his
spots were promoting them a bit too much? Well, at any rate, each commercial
has a different moron telling you how they couldn't manage to open a fucking
app, or something equally as stupid...all accompanied by music that sounds
like it came straight out of your grandmother's toilet. |
"Everything
was kind of unwieldy and
I couldn't keep track of where everything
was or how things were filed." -
Well thank God that Mac OSX magically
makes all those problems go away...yeah-fucking-right. |
| |
|
"...that clunky world...there's a clunkiness to it" - Down with
the clunk, you rock dude! |
Whether
you're a PC or a Mac user, these commercials are just fucking embarrassing!
I have never seen such a collection of idiots in one spot...with the exception
of EVERY Wal-Mart in the country. Apple would have you believe that OSX
is some sort of Operating System Messiah.... |

|
| My
favorite of the series definitely has to be the stoned girl who talks about
her dad's PC dying. Nothing hits home like a child on drugs, except a child
on drugs advertising a company on drugs... |
"I
was like....like.....oh, sweet Jesus, I am so wasted..." |
| |
|
"I
never could understand how I was supposed to move things around, or open
anything." |
Then
comes another dumb bitch, talking about how she could never open anything,
or move anything around. What is she, some Texan house wife, sitting out
back barefoot and pregnant? Jesus...these people don't need Macs, they need
to given etch-a-sketches...with parental supervision. |
Closing
thoughts:
These series of commercials are so amazingly painful to sit through...they
are embarrassing to Mac and PC users alike. It almost like they went to
the local Wal-Mart, just picked trash out of the crowd and asked them what
they thought of their computer. God, you would have assumed that they maybe
would have tried to get a more intelligent group of people to do these ads
with....like the ones behind the Wal-Mart, slobbering over their meal at
the Waffle House.... |
