Random Questions I Have...


Why do people love Diet Coke so much? Isn't this equivalent to linking the not as cool and uglier younger brother of the big man on campus. I don't understand. And don't give me any of that "its diet" nonsense. It still has tons of sugar so its still awful for you. So stop using the its diet arguement and step up to real Coke?

Who watches The Hills? Seriously? Why is anyone interested in a bunch of dumb, spoiled, rich kids who MTV puts in 
fabricated situations and do nothing but get into petty arguments. Why 
do people care about these giant tools. What did they do to get famous. These people dont even have a sex tape! People should not get famous for going to high school and being the people at high school that everyone hates. When i want to be entertained by hateable, poorly dressed people in fake situations I will watch wrestling!


Why don't people use the word scamp, scoundrel, or rapscallion more often. I know tons of loveable scamps and rapscallions and tons of unsavory scoundrels. 

Who was the first person to eat Oysters. who opened up an oyster and said, "yum that looks edible". The people that did that, and the people who followed in kind must have been seriously short of food options. Nobody looks at snot in a shell and gets excited (except for my father).

Why doesn't Apple partner with Netflix in order to make Apple TV more viable? Apple TV allows you to save your favorite shows, movies, you tube videos,  music videos and photos and then watch them on your HD TV (which I dont have by the way). Here is the problem.
Apple noticed that most people like to rent movies now (Netflix, Blockbuster's mail service). So Apple is hoping people will rent movies from iTunes and watch it through Apple TV. Good idea to tie in a rental service to this device. Here is the problem - the moment you start the movie you only have 24 hours to finish the movie before it disappears. THAT IS HORRIBLE. Apple should just partner with Netflix or follow that model. iTunes should allow renters to rent up to 3 movies and then "return them" before they can rent again. Users can hit a return option where the movies are removed from the users hard drive or Apple TV and then a new rental can be made.

Just questions to ponder.
