You’re Killing Me

I’ll be honest, I’m really tired right now… and cranky. With that in mind, I hope you won’t hold the following rant against me too much.

  • Andy Rutledge’s Design Test
    Your “test” came off a little pompous. Who put you in charge of determining whether or not I have a “solid grasp of artistic and design fundamentals”? Wow, that came out a little mean and bitter… sorry.
  • Derek Powazek’s Thanks a lot, Apple
    Dude, that guy in the ad is supposed to represent the MACHINE, not the USER. Apple doesn’t think you are a “whiny kid who looks like he sleeps under a bridge”… they think their machine is a “whiny kid who looks like he sleeps under a bridge”.
  • Mike Rundle’s New Personal Site
    Mike, I LOVE the design! But seriously, would it kill you to decrease the width by about 30 pixels? What did 1024×768 users ever do to you? …*sniff*
  • we*heart*prints
    Could you stop being so awesome… maybe just for a day? My wallet cringes every time another amazing print is showcased.

Every time you post a rant, God kills a MacBook. Pro.

Heh, I think Derek seriously overthought the ads. The actors are obvious caricatures of whatever you think they represent, not mirror images. Geez.

If only he had comments open so we could tell him…
