Man Blames iPhone Glitch For Nude Photos

A woman calling herself Susan042764 posted a question on the Apple support forums asking if a "technical glitch" could be responsible for nude photos of her husband she found attached to an email. She wrote,"Please help! I took my husband's iPhone and found a raunchy picture of him attached to an email to a woman in his sent email file. When I approached him about this, he admitted that he took the picture, but says that he never sent it to anyone. He claims that he went to the Genius Bar at the local Apple store and they told him it is an iPhone glitch — that photos sometimes automatically attach themselves to an email address and appear in the sent folder, even though no email was ever sent. Has anyone ever heard of this happening?" Assuming this is true, it has to be one of the lamest excuses ever.

    ..Only an Apple user could possibly believe that.

    It's the same glitch found in some brands of condoms. Hear that sweetie? I admit to putting the condom on with another woman, and while it appears that we used it for sex, it's just a minor glitch! Honest!

    I still don't see how that justifies him having raunchy photographs of himself on his phone in the first place, unless the iPhone was responsible for that too. (In which case, I would like to exempt from the iStalk features.)

    In a related story, a man who had his Playboy collection discovered by the wife explained that he "reads it for the articles".

    For all intensive purposes, "whom" is no longer a word. That begs the question, "who cares"?
