Yeah, Steve Jobs is Still a Fucking Moron

Freed From the Page, but a Book Nonetheless - New York Times

Yet, when Mr. Jobs was asked two weeks ago at the Macworld Expo what he thought of the Kindle, he heaped scorn on the book industry. “It doesn’t matter how good or bad the product is; the fact is that people don’t read anymore,” he said. “Forty percent of the people in the U.S. read one book or less last year.”

Fucking dolt. Yeah, 40% of people may not have read a book last year, but those of us who DID read a book probably read 20-50 books, and I know I bought at least 50.

I hate that market-trending, stat-mining, emperor’s-new-clothes-wearing bastard . In a slightly unreasonable way, I will at least admit to that. But damn, he works my nerves.

    • I don't live on the moon
      Drink martinis in the afternoon
      I don't pretend to make
      The world feel better
      I don't live on the moon
      No I, I don't live on the moon

    • I need no shelter
      I need no guide
      I'll be alone

      long dark ride

    • It just ain't fair this
      thing called loving
      When one's still there
      and the other feels nothing
      I would have done anything for you
      I still love you, baby I adore you
