a friend of mine showed me this. it's a hilarious fake video of a new computer made by apple.  i was really impressed by how well done this was. if it wasn't blatantly making fun of mac/mac users i really would have believed this.

it\\\'s well made cuz it\\\'s from the onion, they\\\'ve been doing satiric news broadcasts for a really long time , and they\\\'re usually hilarious. this one is no exception

and apple would make something like that lmao

someone already posted a thread about this and thought it was real, i forget who
I have more of a life writing this review at 1145 pm than you guys do making these movies. . .

it's sad how many people DO think it's real, just read the youtube comments if you can actually bare to go through them. i'd say 3/4ths of the people who watched it think this this is coming out

Wade is not gay, read his profile! It's sad that you would use sexual orientation as a joke, shows that you have no real sense of humor.

The Onion is great.  They have an amazing staff full of writers who know how to properly structure things to not only appear authentic, but also so the final punch and greatest bite usually come right at the end of the story.

lmao i wish youtube had an 'actually good' tab

judging by who youtube picks as their "partners" their actually good tab would probably be full of shit

ever since google purchased youtube they've only been scrambling for ways to make it profitable. the best way to do that is to slap banner ads all over camwhore videos. and that is precisely what they're doing

still, they have yet to make a dime off the investment

This reminds me of that time magazine cover with obama wearing a turban and his wife dressed in rambo style.

i'm really sorry about all my stupidity on this forum.
i didn't know what i was talking about and was an asshole.
so i take back all of this as it no longer represents me.
i was unable to remove the posts in the locked threads.

I define people by what they do,
