MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

Somone's been eating toys dipped in lead based paint.

couldn't think of a better name for this guy!!

perfect poster for the product.

For a bloke like him "Brown Zune" is a wonderful name.

He will be equally quickly forgotten.

Ballmer's already fantasizing about putting him in tights and butterfly wings.

"Fly, my precious monkey child. Fly, dammit."

I don't have the heart. It's just too damn easy.

I thought this was an Onion piece

"Oddly, his concerns are with the legality of using a trademarked name. We think he should be a little more worried with, say, keeping his wife and job."

I refuse to believe that this man has either.

@ Mauritius Kestrel

Thanks for reminding me of that awful MSN butterfly ad campaign. The therapy I have to go through to block that stuff out isn't cheap.

I would do what he says. He's already "accidentally" eaten three of his lawyers. See on the wall where it's writ, "Habeas A Corpus Delecti!"

Hey now. There are women just as stupid as this guy. How else do you think that *insert politician that you personally dislike* keeps getting re-elected?

Let him do it; people never regret those sort of decisions.

Jesus!



talk about a douche salad rolled into a chode roll.. this guy rocks the concept.

Listen all you bloggers, The man probably doesn't have a job and so this is his way of earning a buck, good luck to him because his hearing was probably temporarily dysfunctional while tucking into his favourite bucket of eats, thus causing him not to hear that the Zune and its market place chums (napster et al) are becoming obsolete at the speed of thought! Thus making him a likely candidate of early obsolesence.

What ever he does, he has my support, I can only wish him well on this new venture he is about to embark on.

We need more people like him to embody products, thus creating a very interesting World.

So that is what ZuneTang looks like.....

best MDN take in awhile - thanks for the laugh guys =)

@ BustingTheSkullsOfIdiots

So, are you saying that the women of Alaska are to blame for Ted Stevens? I see...

I think he should change his name to 'anita salad'

"We think he should be a little more worried with, say, keeping his wife and job."

Read between the lines.

Wife = Longhorn
Job = Branding

And someone might want to check his freezer. There's also a Boy Scout Troop, six insurance salesmen and dozens of pets missing in the area. <urp>

This reminds me of when I changed my name to Sony MiniDisc. It was my father, Betamax's idea.

(Does anyone else feel a Princess Superstar song coming on?)

"Mens sana in corpore sano."
I didn't know that the reverse statement holds true as well.

Welcome to the socially inept...™

Welcome to the Sociopath™

Ok, remember the post from Qwest crap, and how those who call Mac users zombies and mindless followers and etc.? Well basically this makes my point.

Two nursery-school truths that still hold true:
1. What goes around comes around.
2. It takes one to know one.

So C1,

BetaMax was screwing VHS - eh, I thought so.

Did I say embody?

what a product that body must be embodying!!!! embo---dying get it?

Some people should remain in their parents basement and not come out to squirt with others.

Wot fun!!!

His bumper sticker says, "If I Squirt You, Will You Love Me?"

Why not? I think he's the perfect spokesman for the Zune.

I doubt even Microsoft would want anything to do with this basket case.

They have used this picture before!!! I guess they couldn't open the door wide enough to get in and take "a latest photograph of him"!!!

magic word : "why"

From the ZuneScene comments...

mszunefan:"If any one could help me research what I have to do to have this happen in my state of Iowa that would help a great deal."

Ah... Iowa. It all makes sense now.

"I doubt even Microsoft would want anything to do with this basket case."

Especially when TMZ reports that he's Uncle Fester and Turtle Boy's secret love child.

I think we should petition the authorities to allow this to happen. I'd love to see the hilarity of humiliation that ensues.

"Ah... Iowa. It all makes sense now."

Where acres of corn are terrified. And useful holes come in only three flavors:
milk bottle,
canister vacuum,
and small tear in mattress.

Does anyone still not know that ZuneScene is run by Apple?

whatta mah-rune

He should marry that goldenpalace.com chick. Talk about successful branding, the only online gambling website I know of.

Nothing says 'Lovin' like a Zune tatoo and cankles.

He'll get all the chicks w/ a name like that. Let's break it down slowly: micro - soft. Yeah, I can here them running now.

this is why I use Apple products...

If it takes a cool guy to represent iPod, then this guy is the perfect poster boy for Zune: Wierd and not too handsome.

If Microsoft's recent ad campaign on Slashdot is any indication, their new marketing strategy is to bring on the ugly.

A perfect mascot for Microsoft.

MS should let this man change his name.He's the perfect image right now of Microsoft ...bloated.

"He'll get all the chicks w/ a name like that."

Only the brain damaged poultry too slow to escape.

He looks like he's about to give birth to a thousand little Gigabeats.

Microsoft will probally sue hime if he does... They don't need anymore slow bloated things confiding with their name...and what don't know is this is this is balmer's kid...hahaha.

Oh.

My.

God.

a-hole.

Is this the guy who writes under the pseudonym "Paul Thurrott"?
