RIP Steve Jobs: Apple Taskmaster,
Corporate Prick, Electronic Visionary
****************************************
For some reason
I keep thinking of
Steve Jobs as a new age
Rex Harrison in
" My Fair Lady "
an annoyingly alpha male who,
on a bet with
another old school bastard
claims he can take a
do nothing Cockney flower girl
( aka 3 mb pocket calculator )
from the backstreets of London
and train her up into a refined lady..
(aka: multi tasking online device )
Half the joke is
he's a pushy arrogant bastard
& she hates him for it
because shes unmotivated and lazy..
but she is ..
in the end ...
bullied into Eugenic excellence..
( aka: the Ipad )
She did this all without I add-
having to become
a doped up sex slave..
( Windows )
good songs too
Mary Poppins on the other hand
that " alternative Cockney girl
pushed into the realms of
unlimited wealth and refined society
becomes a floobie suicide bomber
for the Occupy Wall Street
air strike force complete with
retro cool but ineffective umbrella
( Linux )
Mary ended up worked for minimum wage and never elevated herself
past the unimplimented ideals stage
( community raincoat )
and talked herself out of a job
( woman's shelter )
Eliza Doolittle the
principle chick
of My Fair Lady
could outmaneuver & outgun
Mary Poppins
any day of the week..
onwards 21st Century
