2009 VMA

All I have to say that there were some great performances, lady gaga was alright, but the highlight was kanye west. that guy never ceases to amaze me, am i the only one that thinks he was not out of line? we need more people like him to bluntly say what they need to say, but the problem is that others taboo it so fast instead of criticizing.

Technically, he did not say anything towards Taylor Swift. Yeah bitches (no apologies needed), I said it.

"Seven of Nike’s most exciting athletes– including Maria Sharapova, Sofia Boutella, Alexandre Pato, Rafael Nadal, Manny Pacquiao, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James– bring a fresh new look to fans in a photographic series created to showcase the “AW77” hoodie on October 1st. The photography, created in partnership with the creative team of David Sims and Karl Templer, presents Nike Sportswear’s in its true essence: athletes on and off the court." (Hypebeast.com)


My comment:
Psh, I wanted to see Manny fight Mayweather. Not this... Nice jacket!

TOMS



Toms is a company that guarantees a brand new pair of shoes to a child of poverty in need whenever a buyer purchases their product. Pretty cute huh? As a business major, I would say it's ludicrous but I do have an ethical and moral side hahahaha.

The Nice Guys TV

Great advertising, totally relates to their lifestyle and what they are trying to do. Basically saying: their purpose is clear, but the way they project this is good. I give up, touche on the marketing.

Tupac lives...

in Kazakhstan? Haha, figure of speech. This is weird, some dude filming out of the country and I am still not sure how his song choice has relevance. Still made me laugh though, 10 year old kids driving, and some other stuff.

Boredom does this

I wish I had a camera to take pictures of things with my own hands instead of putting on people's work. There is a lot that San Diego has to offer, although I post things from the Bay lol. We have our standard of "hella flush cars," food, fashion, and general culture. I just wish I had a decent camera to portray it.

Windows 7 versus Snow Leopard?

Hell no. All techno-babblers know that the official release of Windows 7 is going to be in October and Snow Leopard will release this month, so which is better? I have never liked this debate one bit because in 2009, this is like comparing apples and oranges. The problem is, the orange is trying to change into an apple.

Maybe they were both oranges before, lol excuse my lack of metaphors, but Microsoft turned into such a big monopoly that Apple had to market in some other field. Microsoft only has to maintain sales relationships and they will still have revenue unlike Apple or any alternative such as linux for that matter. Should I specify? Microsoft has relationships with the government, gaming companies, and business programs such as Microsoft Excel, I repeat Apple cannot compete with this. Also, Microsoft monopolizes over hardware companies, that's how you can get a decent computer for only $400! So how does Apple survive? By marketing towards mobile phone users, being integrated on the storefront, media such as video or music production, or more homely uses.

So how the orange trying to turn into an apple? Well Vista and Windows 7 as we all know, astoundly looks like Mac but on a generic platform that only costs $600 dollars lol. Microsoft is trying to cater towards people that usually bought generic PCs (or really cheap computers ranging from 300-600 dollars) and then people find out Vista/7 cannot run on these machines. Not only is Microsoft's operating system software trying to look like an OSX, they're also not realizing what they're monopolizing in: hella inexpensive hardware.

Conclusion? Windows users should stick with XP service pack 3, and if they want something more amazing they have to upgrade their hardware, i.e., non integrated parts lol.
