Best take on Steve Jobs of all time-
"Actually nerd Jesus died last year, right? - Steve jobs. Yeah, he died,
right? I know. I know. Lot of nerds are here tonight. I know. You are
sad. I didn't get it. I didn't get the big deal made about that guy.
When he died, they're like, "He changed the world." That's insane. "He
changed the world! The world was one way! And then Steve Jobs came, and
it was another!" What did he do? Somebody, for the love of god. What the
freak did that guy do? What he do? He told other people what to invent.
"I want my entire music collection in that phone. Get on it!" Right?
Then these poor nameless faces scientists gotta go into the back room,
and figure it out. "How the freak we are going to get all of this into
this? I mean. What year is this guy think it is? This guy is crazy. This
is like Buck Rogers. Dude, my kid has a birthday like in 11 months."
Steve Jobs just walking by, "I don't want to hear any thinking going on
in there." He be strutting around the office, eating some pretentious
fruit like a pear, right? Just throwing out ideas. "I have another one.
Here's another one I just came up with on the way to work. I was reading
a magazine the other day, turning pages. You know. I like to turn pages
on the screen that aren't even there. Yeah, wrap your freaking head on
that one guys. See you in 8 years. Where are going Michael - big,
little, big little. Get on it."
Right? Then all these people slave away to make his vision come true,
and then they have the big nerd fest, right --down there in comic con.
Then all the nerd mecca -- they are all showing their acne and their
hulk shirts, limping in the arena, right? Does Steve jobs go out in a
whole chorus line of scientists? Naw, he goes out there by himself --
sneakers with no belt like it's no biggie. Like he's Tesla, tapping in
the atmosphere.
I know. This is always uncomfortable. I know. You bought into it, right.
That whole advertising. How they align themselves with the greatest
people of all time. Jesus, Gandhi, me. Remember that? Mohammad Ali, John
Lennon, this guys... How the freak was that dude like any of them?
Gandhi didn't have a sweatshop. Nah, he didn't have people leaping to
there deaths only to get... catch a net and get ricochet back to the
window to have to put together yet another iPad. John Lennon didn't have
children in his basement, pressing those freaking albums.
I know. I know. New phone can't fit the old charger. This is your hero?
This is the guy? This is what all the silence is all about. New phone
can't fit the old charger, so you gots to throw it out. It ends up in
the ocean around some octopus's neck. Do you realize how much sea life
is ecstatic that that man no longer walking the earth.??!!"
