Ok, this is also posted in the lounge, but as this forum has so much on iPods, I thought you'd love to see this video.

A friend of mine who's an intern at Apple made a very funny spoof-ad for iPods for a little intern competition for the best iMovie. I've shown it to a number of people and I think that all found it more than worth their time to view.

iPod Love (HTML Access Page)

Interning for apple! That must be one kick ass job!

Everyone's dream.

The video is so funny!! Love the Rocky part. haha so stupid,

But really good spoof

Should have used R kelly's song "forever" in it. that would have been really suitable

I can't think of a time I've crossposted before, and I alerted you to the fact that I have. I believe the reason is justified.

I don't see how you can get confused on that one. I mean it quoted your remark and then said "Him".

Perhaps you need to repeat grade one and brush up on some english.

So a guy I know at school got an iPod from his Girlfriend for X-Mas, and very soon after dumped her.

I got an iPod form my Girlfriend, and very soon after dumped her.

My college roomy got an iPod for himself and has yet to dump his girlfriend.

So, anyone who wishes to keep their girlfriend, make sure you don't get her an iPod, and make sure she doesn't get you an iPod. It will make you break up. (I bet steve didn't want anyone to know about THAT feature)

(I know, the jokes are going to fly now. Mac lovers WITH girlfriends?)

but

this isn't funny at all. it's actually boring.

the suit looks great though!

Here is another mintern movie contest video. It's way funnier in my opinion. One of my friends works as an intern at Apple also.

Yea "g", you may have been confused by the chick from Hustler. Maybe if they had gotten a dude from Play Girl to plug the AirPort it would have tickled your fancy.

whoa, whoa, whoa... i didn't say she wasn't *hot* (in a dirty, dirty kind of way), I just said that video wasn't funny. Which it's not.

I can see how you might think it was funny - if you knew those guys (i.e., "look what Al's doing! F&ckin' Al is talking like a stoner! Man, Al is always f&ckin' wasted!") But for the rest of us - it's long.

Now what IS funny is how those three guys know a girl from Hustler. That would be a funny story to tell. I'm guessing she's someone's adopted sister. Or she owes them money. Or she's blind.

peace.
