MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

what a great way to start the day.

very funny

OMG! Perfect!

Hilarious! And they didn't even have leg restraints on him! That's really risky.

I agree with chi guy. That was great!

That is priceless!

Brilliant....Absolutely....Brilliant!!
A great way to start the day!!!

Some would say that Ballmer is enthusiastic. I, however, think that he looks like an ass. Another great "invention" by Microsoft.

Kudos to Daphne! (wherever (and whoever) she may be)

MW: "kept"

Too many possibilities on this one -- make one up to suit yourself.

Now I know why they call him "Monkey Boy"!

i'm inspired.

i agree with macnut222 for agreeing with chi guy; That was great!

That's funnier than a hat full of busted bums!

"Another great "invention" by Microsoft."

Which, an enthusiastic Balmer or an ass?

An enthusiastic Balmer can't be copied, but an ass can.

Ballmer gives Frankenstein a bad name.....

Wow. Just...wow.

Yeah, laugh, but remember what the woman discovered I had inherited?

"Oh sweet mystery of life at last I've found you..."

But then everyone knows I'm a big dick...

S

uhuhuh™

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRATE!

I second the second of the motion to agree with everyone else. Hilarious!

Who needs caffeine!

Ballmer is out of control. The stock holders need to take control of that company and clean house.

Oh man! Thats him!


(Funniest part of the movie too)

Blucaso -

Ditto!

Young Frankenstein will never be the same.

Who knew, Ballmer's afraid of fire and loves the violin so grab your pitchfork and torch! The evil empire's gonna fall tonight!!

Choked on my gum! DTF!

That's offensive to the creature. Peter Boyle must mad.

I didnt realize that it WAS HIM!!!!!

I must warn my PC friends!

That was sweet!

Ballmer's seriously creepy.

Let's be nice to Ballmer, because he's the best man on Apple's team. I would hate to see him replaced by someone competent.

I LOLed IRL for a good 20 minutes.

Has anyone seen my brain?

Someone send this to Balmer's children.

No chairs were hurt during the filming of this right?

I agree with chi guy but not macnut!!

PFT-

"Conform or be cast out"

Ironically I disagree with you yet afirm my concurrance with the aforementioned sustaining - if you know what I mean.

...some Ovaltine, perhaps?

That was freakin' brilliant!!!

Now it's been viewed 10,307 times so go MDN!

I just noticed two things:

1. Ballmer resembles an uncle fester-ish/quasi-Richard Simmons

2. Some serious perspiration issues should draw the likes of "SpeedStick", "Old Spice", and Dare I suggest "Axe"?

Anyone else here see a strong resemblence between Steve Balmer and Dick Cheney?

Absolutely incredible. I think Ballmer is giving the president a run for his money at this point.

This is perfect! Good job to whomever did this.

You can respond to daphne either there or at the videosift sift off page, a competition this video was designed for.

This is the most that I have laughed at work at something that no one else here gets. :D

WOW! Thanks for all of the love, everyone! This was for the May VideoSift contest (http://www.videosift.com) and I am really amazed that so many people are enjoying it. Amazed, but very very happy.

Thanks for the wonderful review, MDN. You're right - it's slow at first...but I hope the wait is worth it.

And "Frank" (whoever you are)...THANKS!

I'm glad it gave you guys a giggle. Steve tends to do that, doesn't he?

Thanks daphne - that was lots of work and really appreciated!

Why does Microsoft have to hire Demetri Martin? They already have a celebrity spokesperson, The Creature. The Creature’s wild arm flailing, immature skipping, feet stomping, crazed facial expressions, glaring eyes, and incoherent and rambling speech seem the perfect introduction for Vista. Seriously, folks, I suspect that Microsoft will receive the same reaction from PC-users when Vista is unleashed upon society as the horrified audience is with The Creature. I see a rapid increase in pitchfork and torch sales, and frequent mob gathering on moonlit nights where PCs are retailed.

When Microsoft promised a monster OS I guess we should have taken them at their word. However, I don’t think that they expected that Vista would eventually be a ghoulish and ghastly assemblage of digital body parts of from the dead bodies of Windows NT.

MDN is mistaken - this is actual historical documentary footage!

Well done Daphne.

So how did you go in the contest? I am guessing it wasn't sponsored by Microsoft?

I am also confused as to your profession - movie maker or anthropologist?

Best Regards

BT

You got it, BT and little "c" sign that I can't be bothered with to find on my computer, this is actual footage discovered at an anthropological excavation. M$ is trying to cover it all up.

The SiftOff is a bi-monthly contest where you can submit original material and viewers vote on the videos they like best. It's a great way to showcase your work. Here's the info on it: http://www.videosift.com/blog/story.php?id=1505

The next one is in July.

That was incredibly awesome.

I sill almost feel sorry for the guy though. I would hate to get as much crap as he does.

loved the clip
