Apple to release Mac: The Cologne

The sweet smell of suck-sessAt a board meeting this week, Steve Jobs announced that he was very excited about the newest product from Apple. “I am so tired of walking through some of the development areas and smelling bad body odor,” stated Jobs. “Yes, I expect a lot of my developers, but do they have to smell that bad? Not any more. Gentlemen, I give you Mac: The Cologne!” Steve Jobs then pulled out a small spray bottle and went around spraying every board member with the new cologne.

“This new scent is everyone’s favorite smells all rolled into one spray bottle,” Jobs told the board. “We have taken new car smell, a forest scent after a storm, cinnamon buns scent right out of the oven, fresh movie theater popcorn smell, and the smell of an iPod right out of the box, and we combined them all for the greatest scent in the world.

“It was amazing,” said one board member. “It smelled like I had just parked my brand new car in a rain forest while eating cinnamon buns and popcorn while listening to my new iPod. Truly innovative.”

Apple has not yet settled on the name of the new cologne. They are still playing around with other names including Mac Scent Pro, iSmell, and iStink. Steve Jobs says that he plans to roll out the new cologne along with a body wash, after shave, and laundry detergent by the end of 2007.

American Idol’s Sanjaya to Star in Next Apple Ad

Sanjaya!  He'll set this place on fiya!American Idol, the top rated television show in America, has produced a new star, and Apple wants wants to use that stardom to attract a younger audience to the iPod music player. Sanjaya Malakar, a 17 year old contestant from Washington, has a growing fan base of pre-teen girls that love his velvety voice and long flowing locks of hair. “He is amazing, and I would buy anything that he was promoting”, said one 12 year old girl who was waiting outside of Sanjaya’s hotel.

Philip Schiller, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Worldwide Product Marketing is very excited about bringing the young star on board. “All of us at Apple are in love with this kid and we think he is incredibly talented. We know that he will be a perfect addition to our new iPod ads”, Schiller told Macdiculous. He continued, “Just look at how popular he is. Millions of people are voting for him. Why? Because he is f**king good, that’s why. Why else would people vote for him?”

Hell, that’s why we at Macdiculous vote for him. He really is f**king good.

Apple TV OS Running on Casio Watch

Oh, it's the episode where Pam and Jim pretend to not like each otherSince Apple’s newest device, the Apple TV, hit the market a week ago, hackers have been attempting to see what they could get the device’s operating system to run on. From running it on a Macbook, and booting on a portable hard drive, one hacker has been able to run the OS on his dad’s Casio calculator watch. “I was bored, so I tried to run the Apple TV operating system on the watch, and it worked much better than I thought that it would,” said the hacker, who goes by the name BrownEyeLover.

The watch needs a bit more than just the standard watch components to run though. BrownEyeLover explains, “See, you take the watch, and you hook up this external hard drive to it, then you hook up this Wi-Fi antenna to it, then you hook up this box which has a graphics card inside, then hook up this motherboard to it. After that, you hook up this thing, and then that thing, then you connect these cables, then solder this wire to this. After that, you take this and connect it to this, and viola! It’s pretty easy to do, and now I can watch streaming television shows on my watch. Pretty cool, huh?”

The watch was perfect, for when you want to sit near your computer, with a backpack full of gear, and watch streaming media… or do your math homework.

Apple Remote Can Do More Than You Think

I think that she's a screamerIf you have a new Apple computer, or know someone that has recently purchased one, you probably know about the Apple remote. The small, simple, white remote control is mostly used for controlling Apple’s Front Row application, which plays different media on the computer. The remote has other uses that are coming to the forefront through online tutorials. Uses, such as putting the computer to sleep, scrolling through photos in iPhoto, and flipping through slides in a Keynote presentation, are becoming more well known among Apple enthusiasts. But, there are a number of hidden uses that only a few programmers at Apple know about. Jon Krauker, one of the programmers who helped to develop the Apple remote system, feels that the public should know about the hidden uses of this remote control.

Jon has promised that there are more uses for the Apple remote, but he doesn’t quite feel comfortable releasing these to the public at this time. He promises that Macdiculous will know of these secret and special uses for the Apple remote first, so check back soon. Now, has it been 26 minutes yet?

Steve Jobs Finds Out That He Was Adopted

Me sweet pea.After years of his family and friends keeping it from him, Steve Jobs found out today that he was adopted. It happened while he was googling himself and read his wikipedia entry. Brian, one of Steve’s personal assistants, told Macdiculous, “First, Mr. Jobs called me in to his office and read the entry out loud. As soon as he started reading it, I knew that the secret was finally out. It is actually a big relief for me, because I suck at keeping secrets.”

It is rumored that Steve Jobs then went a bit berserk and began throwing things in his office, yelling, “All of these years, and I always thought that people were joking when they brought it up. I never believed anyone, but since it is on wikipedia, it must be true.”

Though not in the wikipedia article, Jobs later found out that he was actually left on the doorstep of his adoptive parents house in a basket. The basket was the kind that apple pickers use to hold the apples once they are picked from trees. He was dressed in a black mock turtleneck and blue pants.

Political Apple Ad Spoof Author Revealed

Blurred to protect the innocentA new video has been creating quite a bit of buzz on the internet. No, it isn’t a new video of a kid lip synching the new Justin Timberlake, or another animal that has been trained to use the toilet. The video in question is a spoof on an Apple ad that was aired only once during the 1984 Superbowl. The ad is an attack on Hilary Clinton and promotes presidential candidate Barack Obama. Nobody seems to know exactly who created the video and no one has really come forward to claim the video as their creation. Well not until now, anyway. Macdiculous was able to uncover the person responsible for creating the video. The person does want to keep their identity a secret, so for the time being we will call this person Kelsey. Our interview with Kelsey follows:

Macdiculous: Hello “Kelsey”. Thank you for letting us ask you a few questions.
Kelsey: Your welcome.
Macdiculous: So, you are responsible for the video out there against Hillary Clinton. Why did you create this?
Kelsey: Hillary wouldn’t listen to me and I felt that this would be the best way to get through to her.
Macdiculous: She wouldn’t listen to you?
Kelsey: Yeah, I have so much that I want to tell her, and she is only concerned with her campaign. I want to tell her about my new boyfriend, and this bitch that I work with, and I totally got a little drunk off of one margarita the other night and this guy tried to touch my boobs so I kicked in the balls. I think that she would like that because she raised me to be a tough girl.
Macdiculous: What do you mean?
Kelsey: Look, I just really miss my mom and this was the only way to get through to her. Besides, I don’t really want her to run anyway. It was always so hard to get guys to come to the White House to pick me up for a date when my dad was President. (She then began to cry)
Macdiculous: Ummmm, are you ok?
Kelsey: Yeah, I’ll be fine.
Macdiculous: So, do you want to go get a margarita?
Kelsey: Hell yeah.

So, there you have it. We can not give away the identity of the person that goes by “ParkRidge47″ on the internet, but we can say that she loves margaritas and once you get two of them in her, she’s not very good at kicking.

Apple Introduces the Apple Credit Card

What's in your wallet?  No, not the condom, the credit car... nevermind.Peter Oppenheimer, Apple’s Chief Financial Officer was on hand at Apple’s headquarters for the introduction of the Apple credit card . Apple enthusiasts can now sign up to receive the Apple Visa credit card which will earn them points toward future Apple purchases through the Apple store or iTunes store.

“We are very proud of this little card here, which also has a 4 gig hard drive built in and a headphone jack,” said the Paul Jones, an Apple representative in charge of the credit card. He continued, “Plus, for every dollar that you spend, you will earn a point to be used to buy Apple products, along with music, movies, and videos. You can’t beat that!”

Mr. Jones added, “This credit card should be available in the first half of 2008, with a European release about 3 months later. It will come in 5 great colors and it fits neatly in your wallet when you aren’t using it. We really think that people will enjoy using thi…AHHHHH!” Just then the credit card burst into flames as Mr. Jones threw it to the ground and stomped the fire out.

Paul Jones then regained his composure and told told the crowd, “I’m sure that it still works, even after all of that.” He the picked up the headphones and listened. After a moment, Mr. Jones stated, “Nope, no I killed it. But this won’t happen to you, don’t you worry.”

I think that I might hold off for iDebt 2.0, but thanks anyway.

Apple TV Ships! …just kidding

Better late than...nevermindIn a move that few people expected, Apple today began shipping their long awaited Apple TV device..well, kind of. Instead of shipping a nicely labeled box with a great gadget inside, Apple decided to ship just the box. “We decided that since there will be more delays with the Apple TV, we will ship the boxes and the user manual so that people can get excited about receiving it, and also learn about how to use it properly,” said one Apple exec in charge of product shipping.

When asked if Apple is concerned that by shipping an empty box, customers would grow upset, the exec told us, “Hell no. Why would they get angry? They should be happy that they are getting anything at all. Besides, it isn’t an empty box. As I said before, the user manual is in the box.”

When asked what customers could possibly do with an empty Apple TV box, the exec replied “Listen, it isn’t empty. I said it before, and I will say it again. There is a user manual inside the box. Plus, the box might look good if it was for a birthday present. You could still give it and then tell the person that it hasn’t shipped yet, but as soon as it does, he will get it. Or maybe let a baby play in the box. If you are moving, the box could be handy for carrying a plant or some books in.”

We ended the interview, thanking him for sending us all an empty box, to which the exec responded, “IT ISN’T EMPTY! THERE IS A FRIGGIN’ USER MANUAL INSIDE. WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE? DON’T YOU GET IT? AHHHHHHHH!”

Ok, well, uhh, thanks anyway, uhh, for the empty box.

Wrong Ad Displayed on the NYC Apple Store

Who the hell are you and why am I wearing a tie?“This is a huge f**k-up. I can’t believe that this happened.” These words were uttered a short while after the giant ad went up on the side of Apple’s 5th Avenue store in New York City by a member of Apple’s marketing team. The ad was supposed to be a giant picture of Apple’s iPhone, with “Introducing iPhone. Apple reinvents the phone.” written above it. Instead, a giant picture of Steve Jobs sitting on a toilet replaced the iPhone, along with the words “Introducing iShit. Apple reinvents the shitter.”

Doublewide Printers, the company responsible for the printing and hanging of the ad has apologized for the incident. Mark Charles, the President of Doublewide told us, “It was originally made to be a joke that we were going to put on the side of Steve Jobs house for his birthday. The two files somehow got swapped and this one ended up here for the world to see. This one was my bad, my bad.”

Carla Lee, a tourist visiting New York City, told Macdiculous, “I saw the ad and I was ready to go get me an iShit. If Steve Jobs made it, you know its good. I was really disappointed to find out that there was no iShit. No iShit! Can you belive it?”

Somehow, we can.

Apple Laptop Battery Responsible For California Fire

The Mac, the Mac, the Mac is on fire!An Apple Macbook, which caught fire due to a faulty battery, is responsible for the large fire currently burning nearing Anaheim, California. The fire is 80% contained at this point, but firefighters have already determined that the blaze was due to arson. A firefighter at the scene of the blaze told Macdiculous, “Ok, here is how we see it happened. A thief had just stolen a truck and had his Apple Macbook next to him. For some reason, the battery of the Macbook caught fire and freaked the suspect out. He swerved while trying to put out the fire and hit a tree. The Macbook went flying through the front windshield and landed in a pile of dry twigs. The twigs immediately caught fire and started this giant inferno. We know all of this, because the suspect was recording himself, as he was proud of the truck that he had stolen. That dumb ass left the camera on. So if you’re reading this, we’re coming after you, dumb ass.”

Macdiculous was able to contact the dumb ass, but we were told, “No Comment” by the dumb ass himself. Dumb ass.

Pirates of Silicon Valley Sequel Gets Green Light

In space, no one can hear you stealA new movie has just received the green light to start pre-production. Jerry Bruckheimer, the producer behind such blockbusters as the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, Armageddon, Top Gun, and Kangaroo Jack, will be producing the 200 million dollar sequel to Pirates of Silicon Valley. The tentative title of the sequel to the 1999 made for TV movie is ‘Pirates of Silicon Valley: Patents in Space’. The cast has yet to be revealed, and Jerry Bruckheimer is trying to keep his casting choices a secret for the time being. We do know that Bruce Willis is in talks to play Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates, while Hugh Jackman is in talks to play Apple Chief Steve Jobs. Bruckheimer spoke with Macdiculous at a private media event where he told us, “I am going to take the story in a bit of a different direction than the first movie did. I mean, it was good, but there wasn’t enough fighting, gun fire, and things blowing up. In fact, there wasn’t one love scene! How can you have a good movie without a love scene? My new vision will take the feud between the two men into space for the ultimate showdown. Once in space, they need to rely on their own software to save their lives and make it back home…alive. It should be pretty good.” The movie is set to open in the Summer of 2008. The movie is also set to be a complete flop.

Stephen Hawking Upgrades to Mac OSX

Do you want to play a game?Stephen Hawking, the well known theoretical physicist who has challenged theories by such geniuses as Albert Einstein, is getting an upgrade. Due to a long battle with Lou Gehrig’s Disease, Hawking has been confined to a wheel chair that, not only gets him around, but speaks for him along with other tasks. The computer to do all of this has been a PC running Windows XP, but no longer. Due to air on an upcoming episode of Pimp My Ride, Hawking’s wheelchair will be transformed into an amazingly impressive piece of machinery. The on board computer will be upgraded to an Apple computer running OS X. Also included will be a GPS navigation, DirecTV satellite television with Playstation 3 and Nintendo Wii gaming consoles, robotic arms that can lift the equivalent of a Volkswagon, a lot of chrome, and spinner rims.

After trying out the new Apple computer, Hawking told us, “For my entire career, I have been trying to prove that black holes exist. All of this time, it was right in front of me. Windows must be one of the biggest black holes in the universe, because boy does it suck. Ha ha ha. I crack myself up.”
