Seriously

"A Gizmodo reader underwent a vasectomy to get an Apple iPhone, following his wife's orders after a road trip with his kids to Boise, Idaho."

Hmmm... I don't know if I'd have gone that for a gadget.

P.S. The illustration looks awfully familiar. I'm gonna sue!

I did it and didn't get any gadgets. Oh, I also didn't get any more kids either.

What a lovely story. He buys a 4GB, against his wife's wishes, then agrees to a vasectomy, and winds up spending $100 more for an 8GB. IOW, this story sounds like it's made up. If this guy's wife has such a grasp of his balls that he has to go through that to get his iPhone, then all of a sudden she lets him spend another $100, something's fishy.

Why is there always money for war, but none for education?

It's been a few years, but maybe I can still talk her into an iPhone.

Lo and behold, he raised his holy hand cellphone upon high saying "O iPhone, Son of Steve Jobs, Defeater of the Saxons, Sovereign of All California, thou shall be mine!" And there he went, with a new iPhone 4GB in his hands, purchased without Wife Clearance.
Funniest thing I've read all week!

It's not whether or not one is shooting blanks, but whether or not one is getting to shoot them.

Hey!

The weird thing is I think Kristin is more about getting an iPhone than I am. I really don't care.

What a horribly unfunny article.

He should sue Apple because if not for that mad iphone design he could have been more sensible and considered the IVD, which is a reversible option.
