My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.
Because in this case, it was just blatant false advertising? Not some stupid crap that nobody cares about that causes offence... and also cos it's fucking Apple, fuck themKptk92 wrote:

The amount of false advertising in both the states and the UK is ridiculous. There should be higher standards, and stricter regulations on both.

People who actually believe in Ads should be shot to death.
I don't know about you guys but the following line, from a particular advert some of you may know, seems somewhat appropriate here;aerodynamic wrote:

You mean believing in ads like you'd believe in Santa Clause?
Or the Easter Bunny? Or the Tooth Fairy?
People who butcher the English language should be "shot to death".

You, sir, are a gay.

You can have a belief in something without it being supernatural or fantastical, you fucking moron.
Also I believe you have some incorrect comma-usage in your first sentence; 'butchering' the English language and grammatical system much?Oxford Concise wrote:

The fact is that his general point was still comprehensible and understandable. What's with the rise of grammar Nazism in these Forums lately, as if it's even an important detail.
