I was watching the Boston / Cleveland game tonight, consequentially resulting in the biting off of my fingernails, when I saw an interesting iPhone commercial.
I am relatively unstupid, which means I am not one of the one million people who shelled out $600 dollars (or only $500 if you weren't cool enough to get the extra-special version) to secure my status as a hipster by getting an iPhone. So, as I watched the Apple commercials tonight, I recognized that they are targeting me: the unstupid one who eluded a fad.
Well, here comes a dazzling confessional-style Apple commercial.
The classy black backdrop is awesome.
I’m eagerly waiting for David and Lindsay to tell me all about how Stephen slapped Irene after she called him gay.
I don’t get that, and instead I get some dude talking about a dinner date with his girlfriend.
All right, it is a nice setup, so what’s going on?
Apparently, this poor gentleman’s girlfriend has forgotten her boss’s fiancé’s name, and they are meeting them for dinner. I’d assume they would just introduce themselves to each other over the double-date. I mean, that is what I would do.
Not knowing the name of a person you haven’t met isn’t a real crisis in my world.
I guess I don’t get it, for you see oh unstupid reader, because super-cool-hipster boyfriend has an iPhone, he can check the boss’s website super quick to find the fiancé’s name (this could of only been better if he were checking MySpace) thus making his girlfriend look good.
...
I’m sold!
The iPhone – just in case you don’t want to introduce yourself to someone when you first meet them
