man, wouldn't that be something, even all by itself!

the very first thing i wanted to do when i lifted up
a macbook air was to rip off that stupid keyboard.
(but i didn't think the employees there in the apple
store would fully appreciate my marvelous gesture.)

hey dude, i don't know where you're from, but
here on planet earth the ipod revolutionized
how the masses listened to (and bought) music,
and the iphone revolutionized so-called "smart"
phones (which had been quite retarded before)
and put the web (the _real_ web) in our pockets,
which was the biggest revolution of all of these.

and now they've set the table to do it all _again_,
not just changing "the industry", but _the_world_.

but again, this is here on planet earth, so please,
mr. alien man, tell us what it's like on your planet.
