…can do that Mac users can’t…

Ever notice how most Mac users are skinny? It’s because of all the calories they burn because they can’t shut the hell 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 asshole 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:

1. 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!

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

2. (couldn’t come up with a catchy point title here)

I don’t know why Mac users get so defensive when you call them idiots. 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. Stupid user base aside, Most iPod commercials feature guys with long hair, chicks roller skating, and guys wearing fedoras. I have dandruff, and I buy most of my pants from wal-mart. I feel like in order to be a Mac Elitest, I need to be:

-An artist.
-In a band.
-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, asshole! 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.

iTunes is the new Real Player:

In doing research for this article, I decided to reinstall iTunes, a program I hadn’t used since version 4 (now on 7). Here it is, just working:

Back in the late 90s, everyone used Real Player. Then those idiots 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 bullshit iTunes or after hours of looking for the link to install it without iTunes you are so frustrated you just give up. This section was supposed to be longer, but I couldn’t even install iTunes so I could bitch about it. Not that I could have used it for what I wanted to anyway:

From the actual iTunes End User License Agreement.

If I want to manufacture biological weapons with my copy of iTunes, I will!
