Apple 'Front Row' Petition

To Apple Consumers:
Apple released many new and innovative products today, including a piece of software called "Front Row." Unfortunately this software is only available on the newly released iMacs. As a loyal Apple consumer I feel that Apple should release this software/feature as a standalone product.

Apple listens to their customers, so I urge those who feel the same way to cast their vote. Please follow the link below to read and sign the petition.

Dear Nathan Sharp,

You are an idiot. Please shut up. Also, realize that internet petitions are more worthless than shoes to someone who has no feet. In other words, nothing...I mean nothing...has ever gotten done because of an internet petition.



Sincerely,

People who have a clue

Come waste your time with me

It's Friday, and it's another day to play our most fabulous favorite game: let's petition petition-makers who petition petitioned petitions petitioning petitionable companies!

Not at all. I just have a low tolerance for online petitions and the like. It's a waste of time and energy for all parties involved. Not only that, but he's spamming, which isn't cool either. I didn't mean to be rude...oh wait...I did mean to be rude, but if he can't read (the posting guidelines) than why should we have to treat him with respect?

It's one of those cases where he'll sign up, make one stupid post like the one above, and never come back.

Come waste your time with me

He won't. You'll notice that the time on the post is 12:51 (or whatever you folks have your time zones set on. You'll also notice that his last activity was...you guessed it: 12:51. This is classic spam and nothing more.

Come waste your time with me

Actually, I was more surprised that you cared enough to bother abusing him or even replying in the first place. His lameness speaks for itself.

Oh, come on guys! Don't be mean! Some people believe they can make a difference in the world! Just because you're cynical people doesn't mean that this naivet deserves to be punished. Some people are actually foolish enough to believe that these things can work. Who cares that not one in the history of the intarweb has been effective. And that companies probably just ignore them. Nevermind that a petition like this isn't worth the server space or bandwidth devoted to them. Sure, you've wasted 3 seconds reading the post. And it's only 3 seconds of your life that could have been doing something more productive like adjusting yourself or enjoying a nice fart or something. Don't give the guy a hard time for that. He didn't mean to offend.

Did I mention that online petitions are a waste of time?

If it's not red and showing substantial musculature, you're wearing it wrong.
