Waiting for an iPhone 5...for no reason (must watch)

Sam Roberts talked to Rachel, who was waiting on line for an iPhone 5 on 5th Avenue in Manhattan for no apparent reason. This woman is not a plant, she is a real person, and she is brilliant. For more see https://notsam.com or @notsam on twitter.

Haven't watched, but from the sound of it it reminds me of a picture a redditor posted of their friend on the news.

I'll wait till I'm on a better computer. The one I'm on now is old and plays videos weirdly.

What was funny?

The fact that she called in the Apple 5? Or the fact that she seemed simple minded.

Dunno.

Not too hate on Apple too much, because there are a wide variety of stupid people, but I figure that's probably real, just showcasing an Apple sheeple version of American stupidity.

I'd have to gouge my eyes out, jam ice picks in my ears AND put a bag over her head in order to hit that.

Dunno.
I think just that she wanted it because others did, although that's no new phenomenon.  From what she said, any cheap smartphone with a full keyboard would suit her better, functionally.

Not even then. I'd turn celibate first.

When you look up "Consumer" in the dictionary you'll see a picture of that girl. I know I should find this funny or at least silly but I almost got a little choked up watching this from how sorry I feel for that girl, she just needs someone to have a sit down with her and explain all the stuff which knowledge we take for granted.
My blood-wuss level is high today.
I wouldn't want somebody with 18 kids to mow my damn lawn, based on a longstanding bias I have against crazy fucks.

My iPhone 4S with iOS6 is basically an iPhone 5 anyway.

I was seriously expecting her to satirize the whole thing, but I was let down.

And she had reasons for buying the phone, they were just dumb reasons.

Yep. Although some of his stuff is too racy to be considered tasteful by even the most liberal of folks, I love the majority of it.
