Six Signs That the iPad Review You’re Reading Is Crap

The fol­low­ing is a list of signs that the iPad review that you’re read­ing was writ­ten by a tool, or an igno­ra­mus, pos­si­bly both. I’m not refer­ring to any spe­cific reviews, but to gen­eral trends of ass­hat­tery. Disclaimer: I do not yet have an iPad to per­form my own crit­i­cal analy­sis. Mine is still wait­ing in FCC approval limbo.

1. Any ref­er­ence to Apple’s Draconian Control™. Really, we get it you fuck­ing free­tards, Apple is the new big bad evil empire. Go buy a fuck­ing Android device along with the rest of the dirt eaters.

2. Complaints that the iPad screen is a “smudge mag­net.” Piss off you greasy-fingered fuck. Name me one glass sur­faced dis­play that doesn’t gather smudges like Richard Stallman gath­ers toe-jam. Wash your hands and quit your bitchin’.

3. Complaints that the iPad is “heavy for an eReader.” Hey lack­wit, show me where Apple is mar­ket­ing the iPad as an “eReader.” You know what the iPad is light for? It’s light for a fuck­ing lap­top alter­na­tive. Do some curls and build up the strength in your arms you pansies.

4. Complaints about “glare.” I’m almost sym­pa­thetic to the peo­ple who com­plain about glare when using Apple

Five Reasons Michael Scalisi Should Shut His Fucking Trap

Well, it’s Tuesday so it must be time for the shit-mongers over at PC World to expel another worth­less bit of link-bait designed to a) get reprinted in Macworld, and b) bring in the iPhone fanat­ics. This week’s fecal dis­ser­ta­tion is titled 5 Reasons It’s Time For a Verizon iPhone by Michael Scalisi. There isn’t actu­ally a point to this colo-rectal dis­charge, so let’s get right into the defen­es­tra­tion, point by point.

It would pro­vide a major boost to iPhone sales: For a good num­ber of peo­ple (whom I used to be one of), the iPhone is appeal­ing, but AT&T is a deal breaker. Providing a sec­ond provider would cap­ture these cus­tomers. Additionally, exist­ing iPhone cus­tomers want­ing to upgrade to the 3GS might find that jump­ing from AT&T to Verizon pro­vides the per­fect excuse to get a new phone with a new contract.

This is the only one of Scalisi’s anal off­spring that has even a hint of rela­tion to real­ity, and it’s so self – fuck­ing – evi­dent as to be a gods damned tau­tol­ogy. Yes, Michael, offer­ing the iPhone on another provider would increase the poten­tial mar­ket. Aren’t you a bright boy. Do you
