Brown Bag Cinema- Are you in line yet?

In Brown Bag Cinema, Pop Culture by Heidi Nyburg on Thursday, June 28, 2007

Who doesn’t need iSideburns?

If you don’t have time to stand in line, have no fear, there are plenty of entrepreneurial scammers out there who will do it for you. We like the last guy coming in wearing his super hero cape to prevent the evil-line-waiters from duping unsuspecting iPhone buyers.

Is it scary that this reminds me of college?

Everybody wants to be a hero, even if it is in the smallest way.

If only that were true. I wish everyone wanted to be a hero. I guess that’s why I appreciate even the tiniest of heroic gestures. *Adjusts cape, rescues kitten from tree* ;-)

Wow, I wonder if I can hire someone to hire someone to wait in line for me. I think I might hate the iPhone simply because of the number of productive human hours have been wasted thinking about it.

Then again, if someone wanted to get me one I wouldn’t be averse…

But the real question is… can it clean my house? ;-)

Ha! Totally! But for the cost of buying the phone and the service plan you could probably get a maid twice a month! I kind of want one but I’m not into the constantly smudged screen.

$250 for someone to wait in line for + $600 iphone + service plan = 3 months of starvation
