"I don’t own an iPod. I would never wear an iPod… If this is your primary focus in life - the machines… it’s going to have a staggeringly negative effect, all of this, for America… did you ever talk to these computer geeks? I mean, can you carry on a conversation with them?"
well, that's good.
certainly don't want bill o'reilly to compromise himself by wearing an ipod.
personally i love wearing ipods.
i have these ipod socks that i'm really fond of. they're not so comfortable, but they're
great on long hikes.
and i might get an ipod sweater as it's getting cold outside, and nothing says 'new england
practicality' like wearing in ipod sweater.
but if bill o'reilly chooses not to wear an ipod(or, uh, live in the 21st century)well, that's
just fine.
and also, in the 21st century, what defines a 'computer geek'?
someone who spends a few hours a day on their computer?
someone who uses their computer for work and entertainment?
someone who knows how to install and re-install software?
oh, you mean 98% of the people under the age of 50 living in the western world?
yeah, it sure is hard to carry on a conversation with the 98% of the people in the western
world who use computers.
bill o'reilly must be very lonely, only being able to carry on conversations with the 2% of
people in the western world who don't use computers for their work and entertainment.
poor bill o'reilly, he's angry and crazy, kind of like grampa simpson('there are too many
states, please remove 2').
