Apple Just Says Yes To iPhone Smoking Game

Posted by kdawson on from the thought-they-were-banning-e-cigs dept.

ZosX sends along a puff piece from Wired's Brian X. Chen: "Apple on Monday approved Puff Puff Pass, a $2 game whose objective is to pass a cigarette or pipe around and puff it as many times as you can within a set duration. So much for taking the high road, Apple. The game allows you to choose between smoking a cigarette, a cigar, and a pipe. Then you select the number of people you'd like to light up with (up to five), the amount of time, and a place to smoke (outdoors or indoors). And you're ready to get right on puffing."

    I admit, I'm an Apple Fanboy and enjoy reading stories about Apple but I just do not give a flying fuck about "this" app being approved and "that" app being rejected. I really, really, really just do not care.

    Here's a secret - a _LOT_ of apps are approved/rejected on a regular basis. Like, really, a lot. I'd wager a fuckton would be an accurate measure of the quantity. This really is not news. Really, really not news.

    And I don't care if it paints Apple in a bad light or a good light - I just don't give a fuck. Why streamline the "story" to read "Apple conducts business just like it did yesterday." Much simpler that way.

    Ok. Rant done.
