Ballmer: [whilst dancing around and sweating profusely] "HA HA, Software-Plus-Services! Your mom is dumb and ugly and stupid and everyone thinks you smell!!!"

You know, it sure is strange to hear about Ballmer teasing something. Isn't he usually the one getting teased?

Ohhh, wait, different kind of teasing. My mistake.

And while we're at it, don't forget the iBrator:

Don't forget the iBrator.

Perhaps they were inspired by this?

or this?

Man, I saw the words 'edit post' in the URL to that story and I got all excited, thinking about how I was gonna go change it to reference Apple products like the Apple Post-It Notes and the iBrator and the iZune or whatever ... then once I found out I couldn't edit the post I got all sad.

Then I started thinking about the iBrator and Ellen Fleiss again and all was well.

That product already exists

iAnal is probably the UI for the iBrator

We obey because it's the path of least resistance. I sure as hell ain't gonna start using Linux exclusively and abandon the stuff I like using just to stick it to Microsoft. Doesn't do a damn thing in the long run.

Well, there is always the iBrator, the most, uh, "friendly" of USB devices.

iBrator!

Unfortunately it doesn't really exist and it's not an iPod interface, but I could see someone hacking such a device into existance. And it selling well.

I guess that movies explains the diff. Ppl want to join in on the OSS approach, whereas only those with other interest join in on this dance. Shoots; he even had to get after others to not sit down.

In space, chairs are a hell of a lot easier to throw.

More like, "In space, it's a lot easier for a chair to throw you!" (No, not a Soviet Russia reference. More like a reference to basic, Newtonian physics.)

I'm not sure about that the shuttles have enough lifting power to take mr Ballmer up there though.

NASA has enough lift power, but they keep having to abort the launch due to unforseen pogo oscillations. :-P

Of Apple doing something like this was the Macintosh office. They advertised at the superbowl in 1985 for a new Office server deal...that never shipped. The idea was that the server would run the laser writer while the macs hooked to the server, standard stuff really. The Mac office never made it to market but it did serve as the basis of the MacII.
Watch the Ad! Amusing.

The Remix: Monkey Developers is what you really want to see. http://www.flamingmailbox.com/maccomedy/movies/bal mer.html

Bill Gates on "South Park" movie

he's talking about this product http://www.flamingmailbox.com/maccomedy/movies/ibr ator.html

iBrator

Actually it's already been done in the form of the iBrator.

If this happens I'd like them to do a remake of the famous lemmings commercial. And I'd like it to be honest: if Apple and IBM can merge, how was such an enormous gulf spanned over time?

Oh, wait. You said embarrassingly simple, not simply embarrassing. My bad :-)

(The link is to an amusing Apple spoof ad, worth checking out. Just don't do it at work.)

Dance Microsoft Monkey-Boy...

So there are what, 4 people using linux at home that also have intimate enough relationships to actually produce offspring

At least some of us Linux users are capable of extremely intimate relationships. If there is a small number of Linux users with kids, it may be because we are smart enough to read the man page for condoms. And of course, the little part in the birth control pill manual that says they aren't effective for 30 days after you start taking them or after missing a dose. Windows machines, and their owners, get knocked up all the time because they aren't smart enough to RTFM. Often, even their operating system was loaded on the computer without their consent. It isn't that windows users have more sex, its just that they have more mishaps.

And Linux users are also capable of creating intellectual creations which reduces the psychological need to spawn biological creations.

Mac users, on the other, hand may have trouble reproducing because they are always too busy using their iBrators :-).

cheers- raga

On the *nux side, I think it's more understood that it is the user/admin's responsability to take care of these things. Microsoft often leads people to believe (in my experience, it's mostly small business owners) that it's secure out of the box, which is really true for no OS. Over the past few years, they have been doing a lot less of this, but the image still lingers.

Personally, I like South Parks way of handling Bill Gates...

If you like your toys running OSX instead of Linux, there's always the iBrator.

However he certainly doesn't have the corporate image to upkeep like Gates, Ballmer, McBride, whoever.

You're being sarcastic, right?
Some corporate image.

But you're right that those guys are very "corporate". Their antics are for money. Linus is making the world a little better.

Just what I was thinking.
Dance monkey boy!

Just what I was thinking.
