Blame Apple. That was everyone's problem with the Ipod shuffle.

people weren't calling Microsoft shameless when they ripped off MacOs in 85.
Or when Apple based MacOS on WIMP from XEROX PARC...

It was all just a PR stunt (http://www.engadget.com/entry/1234000650036878/)

By the way if anyone here is in advertising or marketing... kill yourself. No, no, no it's just a little thought. I'm just trying to plant seeds. Maybe one day, they'll take root - I don't know. You try, you do what you can. Kill yourself. Seriously though, if you are, do. Aaah, no really, there's no rationalisation for what you do and you are Satan's little helpers, Okay - kill yourself - seriously. You are the ruiner of all things good, seriously. No this is not a joke, you're going, "there's going to be a joke coming," there's no fucking joke coming. You are Satan's spawn filling the world with bile and garbage. You are fucked and you are fucking us. Kill yourself. It's the only way to save your fucking soul, kill yourself...

A man and his wife were in the bedroom making sweet love. Suddenly the wife say "Hey honey, how about a little 69?"

"What? you want to order Chineese now?"

Had to do it before Funk!
