OMG Multitasking
It’s the second coming of Christ. iPhone OS 4 will multitask.You can finally listen to Pandora and check your email. How revolutionary – I’ve never seen such a thing before. Oh and, push notifications? Amazing! No one invented those before.
Where’s your mass storage? My Droid is essentially a 16GB flash drive. No notification bar? So you mean to tell me that when I get a push notification, it’s going to interrupt what I’m doing? Shameful.
Apple’s iPhone OS 4 is nothing revolutionary. It’s just playing catchup with Android. But Apple fanboys don’t see it that way. Anything Apple releases is pure gold and everything else was and always will be inferior.
26% of These Poll Respondents Should be Shot Dead

This is part 2 of my 117 part series on why the iPad sucks. Everyone else blogs about it nonstop, so I need to join the club.
So I was browsing through my RSS feeds and came across this article on TechCrunch, which made me spit out my coffee and rage.
Apparently, 26% of the people they polled are happy about the iPad because it “may replace the iPhone.”
Are you people FUCKING STUPID? The iPad lacks the ability to make phone calls/ is not registered on a cell carrier, so explain to me how it’s going to replace a phone? And do you you know how ridiculous you’d look talking into a giant tablet pressed to your head?
If this stupidity keeps up, I am going to quit the internet and move to a cabin in Alaska. Apple really knows how to make the tech industry regress. People think this shitpad is so revolutionary, but it really is not. It’s bringing us backwards.
Edit: So I scrolled down the post and there was another graph about what people didn’t like about the iPhone. 26% of them said that it “won’t replace my iPhone” Make up your minds, ignoramuses. I scrolled further, and 87% said they’d buy it anyway

OMG iPad
Shut the fuck up about the fucking iPad. It’s a piece of shit. I can’t go anywhere on the internet without it being shoved down my throat. I went to my Google Reader and 98/103 items are about this stupid shit. Images, videos, people stampeding one another, morons camping out for days in lines, app reviews, accessories. I don’t care. Shut up. It’s all nonsense. All for a stupid tablet that can only do one thing at a time. All these websites and companies are going nuts developing apps for this stupidity.
It’s all a novelty. I can get a netbook for the same price with more space, a real keyboard, Windows 7, a camera. But no. Computer applications are not as good as iPad apps. OMG APPS. They’re good for mobile devices, but it’s absurd that developers need to waste their time making apps specifically for the iPad. Unfortunately, they have to, because if they don’t they’ll be behind the times.
Waste of money
And why would you ever spend more money on a 3G version. There goes an extra monthly fee? Newsflash – 3G isn’t that good. It’s slow, it’s choppy, it cuts out all the time. Shut up. All it’s doing is costing people money -WSJ and NY Times all charging ridiculous monthly fees for content. It’s actually a clever scam. Really clever.
Apple has created a cult following. The iPad isn’t even that great, but everyone is now obsessed with anything Apple releases. It’s brilliant how the company built up their brand image.
To quote Colbert: “just like the iPhone, you can’t make calls with it”

They can’t stay in their damn lane
STOP DRIVING IN THE SHOULDER. Christ. There’s a white line there for a reason. You’re going to hit the curb or hit a parked car. Every single time I drive, it is inevitable that people can’t keep their cars in the right lane. Why not? Why must you drift into the shoulder? It’s not that hard.
They never signal
I hate driving behind someone who just slows down for no reason to make a turn – without warning me first. You shithead, this is how people get rammed from behind. And thanks for cutting me off on the highway, assknuckle.
They don’t know how to drive around people waiting to make a left turn
I swear to God, whenever someone is making a left and there is oncoming traffic, I always get stuck behind someone who doesn’t understand that you can drive around. I could fit a damn truck through half of the time, but people just stop and act clueless. Usually, I can’t go around the two cars because the second asshole, who should have driven around to begin with, is in the shoulder because it’s so hard to keep the car between two lines.
They either are too passive or too aggressive
You never get anyone who is just right. People either cut you off and drive like maniacs, or are way too slow and get in your way.
Stop riding your brakes on the highway
I hate morons on highways who brake downhill. Really, stop it. That’s the easiest way to need a brake job every 1,400 miles. Second of all, just roll down the hill and go faster. You get better gas mileage and I won’t have to brake either and wear my brakes out.
They can’t park
There are lines for a reason. Park in them. Aren’t you embarrassed that you look like an asshole because your car is crooked? Take another 30 seconds and fix it.
Rich people with fancy cars can do whatever they want
In the Connecticut DMV book, it states that if you are loaded in Fairfield county and drive a Beemer, Benz or Bentley, you are exempt from all traffic rules. Besides, your car is the shit and automatically rules the road. No one else is good enough and only you have the right to do whatever else you want, with no regard for anyone else.
Come to New York, and learn to drive like us. Peace.
