  1. I'm all for letting a person R.I.P. but some of this crap I've been seeing about the reactions to his death is just....stupid. And most seem to be late teen to twenty somethings too.

    They make the man out to be a saint or something. (See picture in posted link)

    One guy on some forum said it best, he was a great marketer and salesman, who profited off of others ingenuity. And also his best job was to convince you, you needed Apple products.

    Well R.I.P. Steve, but know there are some folks still here on the planet that don't use the products you shilled to us, nor have ever had any uses for Apple products ever. What he had a hand in never changed my life, nor revolutionized any aspect of my life either, all I see is people glued to their phones in constant information suck mode needing to text, tweet, or get a stupid phone call from Jenny to talk about this cute guy she saw or what brand of pasta your wife should make for dinner, yeah Steve, couldn't live without that, now could I? O_o

    The songs Cult of Personality and Bela Lugosi's Dead come to mind for some reason.
