iPod - the new Messiah
Q: What quadruped produces wool and is exceedingly stupid?
A: A sheep.
Q: Who purchases an iPod?
A: A sheep.
Wally (W): Why do you want an iPod?
Sheep (S): Because the rest of the herd has one.
W: Does it sound better than another MP3 player?
S: I don't know. I don't care.
W: How long does the battery last?
S: I don't know. I don't care.
W: What happens when the battery dies?
S: I don't know. I don't care.
W: Can you listen to the radio with it?
S: I don't know. I don't care.
W: Is it easy to get songs on and off of it?
S: I don't know. I don't care.
W: So why do you want an iPod?
S: Because they're the best! And they're coooool!!
W: Why did you buy a Lisa, Macintosh, iMac, eMac or whatever they're called today?
S: Because I am post-modern, über-hip, ultra-cool and I ooze style and a smug self-belief, despite the rest of the world thinking I am an idiot. What was your name again?
W: This conversation didn't actually happen, of course. It is an allegory.
Reader (R): What a stupid blog.
