  1. It fits. Windows 7 full of blood gurgling arteries chocking crap. Just like these fast food burgers. All that crap just ends up on your ass… oh yeah great tie in with the MS Big Ass Table. LOL

  2. Windows 7: More is more.

    Windows 7: Seven layers of GUI.

    Windows 7: The last OS you will ever need. (you’ll be dead)

    Windows 7: The sick sense.

    And for the in-show sponsorship should they land “The Simpsons”…
    Mmmmm, Windows 7… alahglhaglhgalhgl….

  3. I got this off my prototype Time Capsule, from Dec 7, 2009.

    Today the Center For Disease Control announced an unexplained spike in STD cases for the month of November. Christie Crotchrot, spokesperson for the CDC, said “It really is a mystery why November registered so many cases when usually that month is one of the quietest of the year. We think there was some event that brought so many virus-infected people together during the prior month, but we’re unsure of what that may have been. We’re still looking into it.”

    In a possibly related issue, the CDC also said it has detected a sharp rise in the number of cases of anger-induced depression which began at about the same time as the increase in STD cases. Ms. Crotchrot commented, “If these two events actually are related then we may have something to go on, as it seems that the event that brought these people together either attracted those with a pre-condition of depression or the event itself caused it.”

    In other news, Microsoft reported that the number of people attending their sponsored Windows 7 parties throughout the country on October 21 exceeded all their expectations. This reporter has been trying to contact some of the participants in these parties for an interview but for some unexplained reason, all contacted so far seem to be on sick leave.

  4. I wish they sold them here. I’d like to go in with six other people, buy just one ‘Windows 7 Whopper’, sit down and pull out a loaf of bread and all the condiments, and then proceed to make seven burgers out of one.

    I wonder if they would say anything?

  5. The Burger King 7-patty Whopper actually symbolizes the whopper of a lie Microsoft is telling when they present Windoze 7 as if it were something entirely new. It’s like Chevrolet trying to convince their customers that they’re really getting a BMW with a Chevy nameplate. Riiiiight…

    …you mean somebody turned up?!

    @MDN. Very funny take. I suspect that W7, like the burger, will be soggy, not snappy!
