Here it has to be 40o F! Cloud cover and high moisture are making a cold, damp day.

Not to sound cliched, but what a long, strange, trip it's been.

After a 19 hour journey from Singapore, I have had a 9 hour stopover in Madrid so caught the Metro into town for a few hours, weather is scorchio, now back at the airport waiting for the last leg of my journey to Lanzarote.

If you know anyone that would love to go on a cruise but can`t because they get sea sick,then this might be the ideal holiday for them.

I love the idea, but it's just not the same experience of going on a real ship.

Sure beats waiting at the airport! We are now at the Steenbank anchorage, waiting for a free berth in Flushing. No new voyage yet, but I guess discharging will take a day or 2

Seeing that it's Apple, everyone would buy it and say how "innovative" it is. You know what's more innovative than the iPhony? The human brain and nervous system! Eyesight has the best definition of all time (unless of course you need the "glasses app").

But really, if Apple does actually make something along the lines of that so you won't have to look up, this will be my reaction:

Let me guess: it's thinner, right? :doh:

I honestly have no idea why someone would want their electronics so thin.

Exactly! Like how Cheez-itz packages their best flavor, white cheddar, in smaller boxes so you have to buy more when you're finished!

It would be nice if corporations cared more about product quality and customer happiness than money.

Image

Same to me, there would be no hope left for humanity.
If Apple somehow notices this image and uses it for their next model, I'm not sure if I would be laughing myself to death because of the stupidity or crying for missing the billions of dollars they would earn with such product.

Kinda like "how awesome would it be if there was some sort of device that would attach a keyboard to your TABLET... wait! wait! wait!! it gets better! AND THEN WHEN THE KEYBOARD IS ATTACHED YOU CAN FOLD THE PAIR CLOSED FOR WHEN YOU TAKE IT WITH YOU!!!! YEAH LETS BUILD THAT!!!"  GE-NI-US!!

Huh? laptops? nah that's too cheap/mainstream/old/basic/unpopular/anno 2010/<Insert (unfortunate) common hyped hipster response here>


I posted this image on my Facebook account. It remains ignored. My guess is that I insulted people who saw my image while they were walking on the street at the very moment.  :doh:


Smartphones... argh...


I bumped into a potential customer yesterday on the street... She wouldn't even bother pointing her eyes forward once!

Haha, I'm sure it's happening a thousand times at this very moment.  :doh:
There are litteraly not enough words to describe the brain-deadness and idioticness of these social zombies.
It might sound harsh but It's hard for me to feel sorry whenever I hear a person got hit by a car because he/she was texting while crossing the road. Don't Do That! Period! If they refuse to behave like normal human beings and refuse to learn to use those two spheres in their skull, they must learn it the hard way.

I mean every single day I experience multiple people just 'throwing' themselves in front of everything, not caring whether or not it's safe or dangerous. They walk diagonally, they cut your path, and they never show the courtesy of acknowledging their rude yet dangerous behaviour. They expect the world to watch out for them instead of the true opposite.

And when google glasses come out.... we're done..

I was at the Cinema a while back. My view looked similar to this:

Seriously, why do those people bother going there in the first place if all they do is texting? If my rage and disbelief could be tapped into a usable energy source it could provide enough power to run an industrial zone the size of Holland for the next 10 decades.

Someone infront of me brought a flipping ipad into the cinema and it was on full brightness and he was playing some game or other - farm vile I think it was. And the only was he stopped was when the manager threatened to kick him out as someone complained.

I simply cannot understand what went wrong when such person was being raised... Manners? what's that?
I imagine those people standing at a funeral of a relative with their Ipad. When the person has to speech, his response: ........wait, hold on.......OMG i know that girl....*like*......Come again?

In my case, the girl is lucky my friend had a lot more patience with such things than I and politely asked her to stop.
her response "meh.. whatever" (Arrogance level 2 unlocked). She did put the brainwasher phone away though. I was on the verge op emptying my popcorn bucket all over her. But saner mind prevailed and reminded me that I would be the one flying out if I did that instead of her.

I'm not innocent myself!
In the school esterfod I was in change or keeping the scores and displaying the scores and during a solo I decided to play angry birds on my ipad and I forgot it was plugged into 3 projectors infront of everybody.  :doh:
