tact is for people who aren't witty enough to be sarcastic.
j: hey, how are you? just wanted you to stop by the phlog and consider joining Team Phlog for Cancer Research (no £ involved). what am i saying "consider"? do it! hahaha.
me: as i suspected, the cancer research team does not consider us mac owners valuable. their program only runs on a pc. :)
j: i blame it on you for buying a mac. yes, it's superior, but what good is it if you can't even find the cure for cancer?! hmmmmm. install it at work and join the team from there and leave your pc on at night so it can do the work.
me: actually i have a mac at work too. it's what convinced me to buy the one for home. does that make me a bad person?
"dear mac, please find enclosed my barely-used G5. i was disappointed to find that, for all its technical advancements, it is unable to cure cancer. consider me an unhappy customer indeed."
"dear josh, you forget that i am steve jobs, and i am all-powerful. we have just released a cure-for-cancer plug-in for our iLife software. it's called iNoculate."
Oh. No doubt due to the success of the "Lord of the Rings" franchise, it was announced today that Disney will be lording over the film version of "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe."
I can't think of anyone I'd rather NOT be in charge of this. I hope I'm wrong, but man. This is like entrusting – I don't know. The story of the birth of Jesus with Pauly Shore. Directed by Carrot Top.
In two years there will be plush Aslans next to Mickey Mice on toy store shelves. And little girls will be able to get there very own Lucy Pevensie figurines in a McDonald's Happy Meal... for a limited time! The Happy Meal box will have perforated lines to punch out to turn it into... the Wardrobe! Open the doors and venture into Narnia!
Actually, this is genius on the part of Disney. Instead of investing money in creating new swag for the movie, they can just replace "Simba" with "Aslan" on the plastic Halloween costumes!
