This is one that I may actually buy, too… VIDEO! w00t!
I was at the San Jose theatre were MadDog Steve Jobs showed off the new iMac (pretty sweet) the new video iPod (just called “iPod… how minimalist of them) and a new iTunes 6 where you can buy TV shows for $1.99 (I already bought the pilot of Lost). Overall, I’m much more impressed than the last time around.
The only bad part of the day was that he continued to demo the video iPod with some U2 song. I hate U2. Except “Mysterious Ways,” which has a pretty slammin’ video.
Well, the footage we took from the announcement is here, and here. Check it out.
One thing I was actually bummed out about is some of the new software for the iMac is not available to us non-iMac G5 owners, like Photobooth (which seems a little silly, but I don’t like it when people tell me I can’t have things.)
Off to work, more later.
Apparently I’m the only one in my office that thinks it’s funny to put a picture of a cat with laser beams coming out of it’s eyes on the front page of the site.
HELLO! Cat with laser-beam eyes?? What’s not funny about that…
Oh, screw it. Let me tell you a little bit about my commute on Monday. After a long day at work, I left with high hopes of going home and zoning out and killing some Ravaged Corpses. I have two options for getting home: taking the Muni, or taking the bus. Usually in the afternoon iI take the Muni train, because it’s much faster. But there was such a GINORMOUS crowd on the platform that I decided to climb the stairs and take the bus. Naturally, the bus was jam-packed full of people too. Whatever. I made my way to the back of the bus, where I stand directly in front of THAT GIRL. She was sitting next to her friend, with another guy next to her, and another guy standing. THEY WERE TRASHED. At 5:30pm on a Monday? Ok, that’s cool I guess. But they would not shut the hell up!!
“DOES ANYONE WANT SOME JAGER??”
“OH MY GOD, WASN’T IT SOOOOOOOOO FUNNY THAT ONE TIME…”
“HEY, THIS GUY SHOULD COME PARTY WITH US! YEAH!!”
This was a full bus, mind you. It made me want to destroy them. I started fantasizing about all the different ways to hurt them. Then I decided it would just be funnier to take pictures of them and make fun of them on the Internet.
So here’s to you, Drunk On Jager Crew. I salute you for being Giant Assholes on public transportation. Hooray! You made at least 40 enemies that day.
