You better join the army I said: "no thank you, dear old uncle Sam!"
Huh?
This was NOT a good plan.
Someone who is not the son of their forefathers must be, by default, a daughter.
Beware the divine wrath of Swordmaker.
Hey followers of the Apple Religion.
Gonna stand in line to buy years old technology again like you did for the last iCrap?
Let’s see what Rush has to say to Apple on Monday.
We need a massive blowback campaign!
FUD, FUD, FUD, FUD, FUD.
The people paying attention to this ad have no idea what is going on in the world.
I was watching Independence Day last night. These idiots remind me of the fools on top of the buildings with “Welcome to Earth” signs.
When the Muslims start hacking off the heads of the gay friends of these kids, they will finally understand. When they start whining about their rights to a sharia court, they might understand. When their women are forced to cover their arms when walking down the street, they might understand.
The road is going to get very difficult for these kids.
I hope they enjoy the last few years of freedom.
It's time to let your babies
grow up to be cowboys
it's time to let the bedbugs bite.
I’m heterosexual, so I don’t know anything about Apple products, but here are the lyrics and the song.

You better toss your bullets
You better hide your guns
You better help the children
Let ‘em have some fun
You better count your blessings
Kiss mom and pa
You better burn that flag
Cause it ain’t against the law!
You better pledge your allegiance
You’re not the only one
Listen up forefathers
I’m not your son
You better save the country
You better pass the flask
You better join the army
I said: “no thank you, dear old uncle Sam!”
You better toss your bullets
You better hide your guns
You better help the children
Let them have some fun, some fun, some fun!
Apple did edit out the most controversial lyrics in their commercial, picking up at the lyric about pledging allegiance and then skipping directly over the verse that rejects Uncle Sam.
Now I have that going through my head and for some reason, it brings images of Apple products to my mind. This would have been appropriate music to set to an Apple commercial.
Gack! You call that drek noise a “song”? Can’t understand a single word the “singer” said. Are you SURE there are “lyrics” in there somewhere?
Heard that ad.
Felt like puking.
Very depressing...
If you want on or off the Mac Ping List, Freepmail me.
What a monumental marketing mistake. They just insulted a HUGE percentage of their loyal customers for no good reason whatsoever.
Watch and see if this doesn’t blow up in their faces over the next 48 hours. I can already see Apple computers being smashed all over YouTube because of this.
