It’s 95 degrees and I’m hot: the semi-rant about Apple
So, look. It’s blistering hot outside in the city, and I’d like to take the time in-between my ice baths to tell y’all something that’s been on my mind. You might have checked out some of the “leaked” 3G iPhone pictures that were out the last day or so. Are they real? Probably not. But here’s my point…Everyone is so certain that because the pictures are still online, the phone is fake. Because, you know, Apple legal would be on that like a German Shepherd on a Shih Tzu. Don’t ask, I just looked outside my window. But, that’s not obviously true. Steve doesn’t want his thunder stolen on Monday, and if Apple legal is demanding the pictures to be taken down, surely we’d know they were real. So, assuming the pictures are real, don’t expect to see them taken down anytime soon. And if they’re real, Apple leaves them up so you think they are fake. Get it? But this is all for nothing because the pictures probably aren’t real. Back to my ice bath.
i love the apple rant. made my saturday work day.
p.s
the blackberry is the best.
Yeah, It’s BURNING hot! I’m sitting at my desk with the fan pointing at my face at high.
It’s 100 degrees and humid as hell, and my macbook air logic board just went out!!! 4 month old 1800.00 laptop, thanks apple.
Nice usage of the colon. I learned how to write titles in that format; it is nice to see that someone knows the conventions of the english language (just took an english course). Yes it is hot in NYC, as I sit in my air conditioned space typing on the macbook. Good points about apple. I think that the video conferencing picture is very believable. One reason why it is real: that is the camera they use in the notebooks. Apple doesn’t use any circular video cameras; which has been repeatedly depicted in all the other pictures. We’ll see on monday!
Oh damn the heat made ya snap man, I’m litterally at work laughin my ass off at this tears rolling down my face with my customer on hold.
yeah its hot as hell in the city. Imagine the people waiting outside the macstores? ha
seriously 95?? here in Vegas thats how we know its still only spring time, or Fall….
Dude! BG! Either the City heat is effecting your thought process, or you’re stuck in some undisclosed location lacking airflow with very little to do. Relax, man!
sooo like wat was to point of that….
u just controdicted ur self
BG chillin in da ice bath. Just like Rev Run in the bathtub with his BlackBerry on Run’s House.
And if they’re real, Apple leaves them up so you think they are fake.
i think you got that part backwards…
and if not i have no idea what your point is
BGR, very clever. Either way it turns out, you want to be able to I told you so on Monday isnt it. Clever indeed.
95 is cool her were uses to100+ degree heat on az it’s a dry heat too
humidity makes it feel waaaaay hotter………Az, true over 100 is hotter….but at least your sweat will evaporate and cool you off……
Hey Gal, ever think that your just used to the heat??
I live in Washington State, and have my entire life, I know what hot is here and what is not hot here. To us, 95 degrees with the humidity we get in Washington, is killer. But then again, if we had somebody here from the Amazon Jungle, it’d probably just be another day for them.
Point of the story is:
The fact is not so much as how hot it is, as opposed to how hot it is compared to normal.
forgot to mention….sorry about the Macbook Air….it’s not Apple’s fault…you were not operating the Air under proper operating conditions…. (noncondensing, lower humidity)
again…sorry
@ justblase
Yes! Totally! Who wants to sign up for my weekly words of wisdom email from the BlackBerry?
@ Galbraton
Dude, there’s like 5% humidity where you are.
@ jg
The point is that Apple, trying to keep people off their trail and keep the Steve-note full of surprises, will leave the “real” pictures up so everyone thinks they’re fake. If Apple Legal goes out and tells them to take the pictures down, everyone will say they were real and the true pictures.
I know…it’s confusing.
In the MD,DC area its 95 with humidity its 110 and its still not summer air or no air its no escape
The high here in Seattle was 54F (12C.)
Can’t imagine it in Manhattan;it is bad enough in Westchester. At least the city feels like a wind-tunnel in Midtown.
We livin in hell here, hell yeah
Ah, of course, the dreaded “double fake out”.
Wait, one thing to rule them all? — the EGO of the megalomaniac in Cupertino.
There is no double-fake-out. BGR headquarters clearly needs air conditioning…
@ Boy Genius you evr steamed carpet inside house were there is no AC windows open an it is 106 outside an its 108 iside no hers your sweat dosn’t evaporat it drips off of you 95 + humidty bring it on! we expince that too it’s called Monsoon season.
Dare you to spend a whole summer in my neck of the woods BG just one
That’s why I don’t buy any laptop in its first edition.
