lol, I was going to post "Infidels! You will all be sorry on the 22nd!" in the original thread ... damn, if I had I could claim that I had known it, too.

I never saw Apple is a left justified kind of company, but then this came in the mail soon after that other one...

I tried to use language so that no one would believe it. Well...I feel like a jerk. Maybe I can convince Apple to release something astounding on that day to make up for it.
Or I can invent something myself and throw a huge press event on the 22nd to show it off. I have over a week and a half. How hard could it be? If I design it now, build it tomorrow, test it the next day, get the bugs out...I can have it mass produced by the unveiling.

I'm not sure starting threads to post bullcrap (even potentially humorous, well-intentioned bullcrap) is going to sit well with the mods...

You guys need to be subtle...slide it into existing threads if/when the moment calls for it. Not running around, starting 28 pain-in-the-butt threads all day long that mods have to hunt down and lock.

What's with all this Flickr nonsense lately? Anyone with an account and Photoshop suddenly found their calling in life?



Jeez...

If I were a mod, I'd ban the next person who even THOUGHT about doing one of these...



We've got a dedicated mockup forum. I guess it's time we have a fake Apple events one as well? At least corral them all together?

The next? I've half a mind to rain down fiery red rep points on his ass.

If he's also Mac Creative I'm coming up there.

Oh, come on guys! All he did was poke a little fun. And this particular forum is mostly bullshit, anyway

Eep. Okay, I promise something amazing on the 22nd. I will spend the next two weeks toiling over it

It was amusing. But it's a bit "cry wolf", and kinda yanks people around after a while (newbies particularly).
