Now Scientology doesn't look that bad, rite?

What I find funny is that the brain waves found in religious people are the same as those of drug addicts.

Most Mac addicts are Scientologists. Read it in a magazine somewhere.

[beats me]

I’m appalled they compared it to a religion. It’s a cult, and unlike every other cult or even religion on earth when Apple predicts something is going to happen it actually does. Who wouldn’t be a true believer with that kind of track record?!?

If you used Macs your signature would be a lot shorter and more impressive.

that really does look like some insane cult initiation. i would feel humiliated to walk down that carpet of clapping thumbs up giving drones. wtf is apple thinking? wtf are the people there thinking. its like they are playing on the people that are needy to feel like they are part of a group. those clapping assholes are not your friends you dip shits! they are paid to give you a thumbs up. its just like a stripper is not your girlfriend you moron! a stripper is paid to give you a hard on, she don't give a piss about you.

Yeah. Uh. The thing is...Google and Microsoft would both give their left nut(s) for that kind of Brand Loyalty.
