MacDailyNews Take: Thirty bucks isn’t going to stop the estrogen stampede. wink

  1. Great take!

    Don’t let these spineless libtards tell you anything.

    It’s basic marketing… more women will want the white iPhone than men.

    Now go get over your hurt little feelings, dumbocrats.

  2. Note the wink at the end of MDN’s Take.

    You knee-jerkers typify political correctness gone amok.

    Take the telephone poles out of your asses and learn to light up. A lot.

    It’s a joke. Not all jokes are sad, terrified screeds about a former Alaskan governor.

  3. MaLvado:

    One does not have to be a “spineless libtard” to be offended by the estrogen joke.

    It never ceases to amaze me how these days in America, everyone is carefully dissecting every single statement in order to find extreme political inference. When a person says that some statement is offensive or sexists, there is all likelihood that someone else will very quickly slap some political label to such statement.

    Sure enough, several have chimed in to defend the alleged offender from a clearly political angle. How come, since the one who complained never even implied anything political?

    Can anyone explain to me why does every single innocuous statement must be immediately put through the political meat grinder?

  4. I think that the iPhone 4 looks pretty cool in white.

    It occurs to me that the use of glass covers in the iPhone 4 enables all kinds of interesting design implementations. For instance, you could add a thermally sensitive film beneath the glass on the back and in the bezel areas that would change colors when you held it. Or the film could be electrically active, so that it could change colors, etc. for notification, status/feedback, or just plain fun and style. For example, a selected color could gradually darken as your text inbox filled up. I’m sure that Apple has lots of interesting plans for the iPhone design going forward.

  5. “Can anyone explain to me why does every single innocuous statement must be immediately put through the political meat grinder?”

    Yes, but you wouldn’t believe or understand.

  6. ChrissyOne,

    I never said if I thought it was hilarious or not, just that it’s certainly nothing about which to get your panties in a bunch.

    The truth contained within MDN’s Take is self-evident: Surveys show that significantly more women than men covet white iPhones and a $30 premium isn’t going to be any impediment to sales.

    Done. End of story. Go find somewhere else to continue your endless quest to knee-jerk over the next meaningless thing.

  7. The Rupubitards are so damn angry at losing (after bringing Amuurica to her knees) that they sold themselves to the devil.

    Now they’ve unleashed every frickin gorgon and mutant backwoods inbred to champion their cause.

    What do we get? A target painted n the back of practically the only good politician in the U.S.A.

    Yeah, I’m a dang liberal and proud of it! I severed my country what did you do?

    Now take your stinking, stupid, retarded (properly used in this case) republican tripe and get off the Macintosh news site!

  8. Name-calling. That’s what the right does. They’re generally devoid of the mental capacity for anything more so they resort to playground tactics. You never see someone up here bust out with a pre-emptive, unwarranted attack on the right.

    But, that’s just what the political discourse in America has become…a party of adults trying to reason with name-calling children.

  9. dijonaise,

    “I severed my country.”

    Too bad that was only a typo.

    You obviously have issues. You should go see a mental health professional to address, understand, and hopefully dissipate your misplaced rage.

    First up, though, you might want to try not using the term “retarded.” Real “retarded” people cannot help their plight. It’s not a joke or an appropriate putdown.

    As evidenced by your post, you are ignorant, misinformed, and brainwashed. I pity you. Get help before you snap.

    November 6, 2012 will be here sooner than you think. We’re clear-eyed and ready. You obviously aren’t.
