"Wait. Does turboparrot want to sleep with Gary? Is Gary a girl? "

Metaphorically, yes.

Well, I do hope that you and those who read this blog regularly to not take these rude people to be "they" if by "they" you mean all people who use Macs or Apple itself. But, I'm sure you would not rush to such a hasty generalization.

turboparrot, You remind me of Jon Favreau's character Mikey in "Swingers" when he calls up the girl and leaves 5 messages in a row on her answering machine.

PWN!

As to why the Mac Zealots exist â€¦ it is to fight FUD. Everyone feels they need to do their part, I guess. I like to be more reasonable. You've experienced the others â€¦ sorry.

You wented wrong when you â€œwanted to wantâ€

Here a few helpful hints.
1) Have your friends proof-read your copy Gary. (see how easy it is to make a mistake)
2) Re-read you articles before you post them
3) For Godâ€™s sakes, try to make some sense

Donâ€™t post unintelligible statement like this: â€œIâ€™ve wanted to want an Apple. You read that correctly. I want to want one.â€

You donâ€™t sound like you know want you want. Remember, if you sit on the fence, you not very stableâ€”someone will knock you down.

I suspect that if you said to most of those people, "hey, I watched a video clip of Mr. T cornholing your mother on WMP last night," their first reaction would be to tell you how much better QuickTime is. Fuck 'em.
