microsoft… you make it so easy…

January 26, 2009

…for me to loath you.

so i keep hearing about how microsoft is doing really really effin’ bad right – and i personally think it has to do with them doing weird meaningless shit… i mean shit that even if it makes no logical sense they will still persist in hopes of transforming your brain shit. and just when i didn’t think they could do anything weirder my friend dave* sent me this video. there literally has been confusion on forums asking is this for reals?

this video made me feel like a darsh for watching it in its entirety. and even more when i watched it 2 more times. like putting cigarettes out on your arm sort of torture.

…yes, it is for real: click here to check it out

…and yes someone has already made a parody that made me laugh so hard i had to pause it multiple times.

warning… it is a little tasteless… (…)(…)

i love how they point out that microsoft used a macbook pro for the computer in the beginning and covered up the apple logo with stickers. i am not sure if that was their way of saying ha! or they messed up. either way this commercial is wack. you can find many more on youtube.

* i would give dave a link but he doesn’t have a blog :(

Thanks for calling me out on the bloglessness. Real nice. Fine you win. Start a clock and count how many days it takes for me to get it up (the blog you sick pervert).

um…so is it just me or is microsoft slightly homophobic and encourages inappropriate sexual relations with a computer? cuz that’s what i got from the original commerical. and in no way was it “songtastic”.
