This is perhaps a message that will resonate with many Mac owners. The fact of the matter is… MacBooks are, straight up, not meant to last. Like, not in any way — the hard drive goes, the CD drive goes, mine sounds like a little miniature tractor powering a carnival ride, the plastic all around the keyboard literally disintegrates, my battery doesn’t fit anymore because the shape of the laptop has warped, and they all turn kind of an unsavory yellowish gray. In two years.

The original hard drive in my iMac also failed, after two years exactly. See, say you’ve owned an Apple product for two years, guess what Apple was doing that whole time? Making new computers and shit! Shit that they really want you to buy! After all, it’s a pretty self-defeating business tactic to design a product that lasts forever, or in our blinged-out, stuff-crazy consumer culture approximately 5 years. If you’re an evil, blood-sucking corporation, that is.

Maybe I should print a really super limited number of these on shirts, like so few of them that they’re all gone before the cease-and-desist arrives.
