I'm confused. I wear skinny hipster jeans because I am a skinny hipster, and it fits in my back pocket fine. The front one, definitely not though.

Apple hasn't shipped a stock laptop with a VGA adapter in years. That's a $29 option.

This article is what I've been trying to scream at all of my friends for the past one billion years and none of them listened to me. Thank you.

I never assumed that tipping norms were based on that assumption. I mean, the logic is there, so I don't doubt it, but I just thought it was social convention. And frankly speaking, I don't mind tipping based on that convention, regardless of how much the server makes in minimum wage.

I wouldn't tweak them. $9/hour is not a great wage. Granted, I used to wait tables, so I'm biased, but the tip is still going to make up the bulk of their income.

Anyone who has worked with Apple on some sort of retail level could tell you horror stories.

I loved WinAMP. Unfortunately I bought an iPod. I tried using WinAMP to sync it but ended up with all sorts of weird quirks (Every album cover was the same for each and every song, for one; Talib Kweli, if you're curious). I ended up switching to iTunes just for the convenience of that.

So Amazon reviewer Tim is making dark humor with the "future" and "next time" talk, right?

Apple offers an academic price year-round on all of their computers. There's no additional discount to this (directly from Apple, anyway) for back to school.

There's a lot of argument for using the credit for "educational" apps.

In some states you can be put on sex offender lists for peeing in public.

OKCupid has an absolutely BRILLIANT one right now.

Two words: cellphone contracts.

Aha! You appear to be right. I need to taunt my Apple rep for being wrong. Brb.
