July 11th, 2008 @ 2:17 pm
Did you have an iPod? I know combining your music and mobile requirements makes sense but I’m always losing my mobile. I’d hate to lose the iPod though
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:19 pm

July 11th, 2008 @ 2:19 pm

July 11th, 2008 @ 2:21 pm
I’m an appleoholic
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:21 pm
Good point SG, but if one’s blog isn’t a forum for boasting then it’s a waste of time eh?
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:22 pm
He’ll be downloading a Damien Rice ringtone.
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:25 pm
I’ve always been a fan of home entertainment thingies and gadgets and the like but thta gizmo is like the 21st century has finally arrived.
It’s all about the screen. Fuckin’ slick, is right, Plop.
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:27 pm
speaking of gadgets, i invented the first tv remote i ever saw.
it was a telescopic meccano arm built to operate the buttons on a radio alarm clock.
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:30 pm

July 11th, 2008 @ 2:31 pm

July 11th, 2008 @ 2:45 pm
iGloo, heh
my fiancee is an appleholic either, it took him 2 days to stop staring at the iPhone when he got his one. i’m sure he is back at staring now that the cool 2.0 apps are available
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:50 pm
“Can I do an Iplop in it?”
Nope but you can do an iPoo
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:51 pm
Or an iPee
Ha, got the slow down posting message,
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:51 pm
Or an iPuke
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:52 pm

July 11th, 2008 @ 2:52 pm
Damien Rice got one too.
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:53 pm
Next week sees the release of the new lizard-specific Tamagotchi.
I have already ordered my iGuana
July 11th, 2008 @ 2:55 pm
me too… it’s the dogs! but then again I’m a committed Mac addict so never was going to resist
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:00 pm
jazz, I certainly did
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:02 pm
Do hoody skangers call it an i-stroke?
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:06 pm
tip for you… the keyboard is bigger when you turn the yoke sideways
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:07 pm
I still want an I-Phone of course.
Don’t mistake my jealousy for contempt.
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:08 pm
I still use a “tranny.”
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:14 pm
How did we go from technology to cross dressing shenanigans?
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:16 pm
“I’m an appleoholic”
I knew you weren’t all bad. I am going to try to get myself one tomorrow. I expect to fail, but one of those lovely, lovely gadgets will be mine, oh yes…

Old school Apple people like me call themselves Mac people. So I’m a Mac person. And like all old school Mac people who know shit, you never buy the first version of anything. Wait until they are into version three or four of the iPhone before you buy it.
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:21 pm
Now I understand what the countdown was all about!
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:22 pm
so what do these iphones you speak of actually do ?
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:23 pm
Apple Computer announced today that it has developed a computer chip that can store and play music in women’s breast implants.
The iTit® will cost €499 or €599 depending on cup size.
This is considered to be a major breakthrough because women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

speaking of gadgets, i invented the first tv remote i ever saw.

SG, my next-door neighbour’s 2yr old son has asked me to ask you to clarify this statement. He’s not the brightest kid on the road, but he does have a point.
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:38 pm
Tony Fenton’s -Daily BrownLoad is on.. gotto escape…. to the jacks with me!!
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:41 pm
not tv. radio. sorry. preconditioning there…
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:46 pm
You realise that owning an iPhone now officially makes you a member of the Pretentious Bastard club?
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:48 pm
“speaking of gadgets, i invented the first tv remote i ever saw.

I made a pair of meccano sandles once which I insisted on wearing much to the frustration of my mother. But I guess I was ahead of my time because those fucking weird looking coloured plastic sandles you see now look very like them.
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:48 pm
It’s OK SG. He says he’ll let you away with it, on condition that you build him a device he can’t seem to find by himself in the shops.
Basically, what he needs is something that will fit around his over-sized head. It has to be lockable, and have some way of securing a ring-shaped handle about two-thirds of the way down the front.
Says he’s sick of waking up in the morning to find his soother missing, again.
July 11th, 2008 @ 3:54 pm
Sorry, I only do 1970s remote control devices with meccano.
But, on the bright side, I do quite a line in Lego nappies.
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:11 pm
‘Sorry, I only do 1970s remote control devices with meccano.

No ‘shit a brick’ puns please!
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:14 pm
And like all old school Mac people who know shit, you never buy the first version of anything.
Which is why I bought the second version.
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:15 pm
“Which is why I bought the second version.”
Yeah flippin’ knew you’d say that.
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:16 pm
“But, on the bright side, I do quite a line in Lego nappies.’”
Duplo or Classic?
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:26 pm
Waddya get a phone for, Twenty?
You don’t know anyone to call…
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:29 pm
I have it just in case there’s something strange, in my neighbourhood.
Then I know fine well who I’m gonna call.
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:34 pm
I heard you can scramble NASA’s satellite downlinks with an I- phone, an eggbeater and a nine foot long carbon fibre fishing rod.
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:36 pm
I bet you have a wii as well, you big girl’s blouse
July 11th, 2008 @ 4:43 pm
“I bet you have a wii as well, you big girl’s blouseI”
No ‘wee’ puns please!

July 11th, 2008 @ 5:38 pm

July 11th, 2008 @ 7:06 pm

He’s waiting for a Poo.
I’m sick of MS Vista – considering a Mac, but they are scary and confusing.
July 12th, 2008 @ 12:02 am
Sleep with one eye open, Twenty. I’m coming for that phone…
July 12th, 2008 @ 12:25 am

July 12th, 2008 @ 3:50 am
I want an iphone so I can use the mp3 I have of the tune to Curb your entusiasm as my ringtone…
July 12th, 2008 @ 8:41 am
More like MAL-funky…TIONAL. Am I right?
July 12th, 2008 @ 12:23 pm
“I want an iphone so I can use the mp3 I have of the tune to Curb your entusiasm as my ringtone…”
Good choice SAm. I think you should be able to get onto your phone though. Can you copy it off the iPod into your computer and then onto your phone?
I want Trailer Park Boys on mine.
July 12th, 2008 @ 1:44 pm
my shitty 80 euro Sagem phone can have mp3s as ringtones.
(it even came with 80 euro credit and that was 3 years ago)
July 12th, 2008 @ 4:03 pm
I still have a bakelite radio
July 12th, 2008 @ 5:10 pm
Here Twenty, I notice your posts and comments have shrunk in length since you got the new phone.
Must be them big sausage fingers you have, eh?
July 12th, 2008 @ 5:14 pm
Does this make you an iPhoney? Manuel: You dont need switch contracts just hack that baby. It was easy for Iphone fits gen: http://download.ziphone.org/

Bonggggg bonggggg bongggggg bongggggg
and so on
July 12th, 2008 @ 7:40 pm
I hope you paused in your typing and gazed poetically out the window, Holemaster.
July 13th, 2008 @ 2:17 am
I knew I could rely on you Jo.
July 13th, 2008 @ 5:47 am
I have, loike an iPhone, loike right? Mm ya! Drinking mochachino while typing with your skinny girl fingers?
Poncey Southsider!
July 13th, 2008 @ 11:53 am
I met someone with one today, a mother of five, living in the country, who makes babyslings for a living – she pretty much defied that stereotype. You do need some skinny fingers though, it seems.
Holemaster, I have to confess you made me have a vision of a hardened Catholic internet porn addict, pausing mid-wank to stare out the window devoutly.
Not you, now, I hasten to add.
July 13th, 2008 @ 4:53 pm
Sunday.Yeah, cumon 20, quit playing with it and get writing.
