SLAP: Samsung pays Apple $1 Billion in coins

August 30, 2012 / by / 28 Comments

This morning more than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins arrived at Apple’s headquarters in California. Initially, the security company that protects the facility said the trucks were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim Cook (Apple CEO) received a call from SamsungCEO explaining that they will pay $1 billion dollars for the fine recently ruled against the South Korean company in this way. The funny part is that the signed document does not specify a single payment method, so Samsung is entitled to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in the way they deem best. This dirty but genius geek troll play is a new headache to Apple executives as they will need to put in long hours counting all that money, to check if it is all there and to try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will accept all the coins. Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the media that his company is not going to be intimidated by a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want to play dirty, they also know how to do it. You can use your coins to buy refreshments at …

FOR NOSTALGIA’S SAKE: Hilarious 90s Back To School Commercials

August 29, 2012 / by / 54 Comments

As September creeps closer and kids start heading back to school, we can’t help but find ourselves a little nostalgic for our neon-colored 90s education. And while we certainly remember what school was like at that time, it’s the 90s commercials that really paint a picture of how funny things were back then. From Yikes pencils and Trapper Keepers to pizza-obsessed kids and totally lame parents, going back to school in the 90s looks even more ridiculous than we remember. Commercials for just about everything school-related pushed forth some baffling stereotypes, including that all lunch ladies and gym teachers were nightmarish gum-Nazis. And don’t even get us started on the talking robot. Click through for a refresher on what going to school was like when “Are You Afraid Of The Dark?” was the scariest thing on TV and Sunny Delight was considered a healthy beverage. Gym Teachers And Lunch Ladies Were Terrifying Ironing underwear or wearing a health department-mandated hair net were obviously big indicators that a person was not cool with you chewing gum. Kids Were Really Good At Giving Impassioned Speeches About Pizza And teachers were powerless to stop them. Yearbooks Gave Better Anti-Smoking Advice Than Your Parents …

EDITOR’S NOTE: HAPPY BDAY Michael Jackson!! How will you celebrate?

August 29, 2012 / by / 45 Comments

Today would have been Michael Jackson’s 54th Birthday! Its still hard to believe that he is no longer with us! This past weekend, while in New York I got a chance to attend a Michael Jackson themed party in Brooklyn…and honestly it was one of the best parties I’ve been to in my life. Nothing fancy, no champagne, to sparklers…just people letting go and having a great time!! The party was located at outdoors @ The DEKALB MARKET in Downtown Brooklyn. The weather was perfect…it was a breezy summer night…the crowd was electric (Filled with all ages) and Michael Jackson spun ALL NIGHT…(Well till midnight). I’ve never seen so many carefree people, loving, enjoying, rejoicing, laughing, singing, dancing and just having a great time… People of all different races, ages, backgrounds all brought together by one thing.. a LOVE for the greatest entertainer of ALL time Michael Jackson. It was truly amazing and heart warming to see an 8 year old boy doing MJ moves and then looking over and seeing a middle aged group of ‘corporate types’ screaming ALL the lyrics to every song with their friends. I looked around and the whole party looked like an Ernie Barnes …
