now if i were a contrarian gimmick like some people have accused me of being i would switch gears and start defending the new macbooks

i'd contrive some half-assed reason why they're great and twist into logical pretzels to argue in their favor

but i'm not

i'm just always right and apple is a pale shadow of its former self

"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

no, but there's a new MacBook Pro with function keys that's smaller than the air

i was amused by how they spent a while in their announcement event trying to convince people that a product they still sell is garbage that no one should buy. i feel like that's the point where you should just show some Courage and discontinue a product

so, no matter what you do you'll need a dongle to use your iphone 7 headphones on the new macbook pro?
