Steve Jobs Legacy

Also, I believe just by saying “You’re from America and you’re just now hearing about this?” implies a stereotype remark. That’s like saying “you’re black but you don’t eat watermelon and chicken?”

Woowww. Honestly? Are those two remarks similar at all?! One is clearly racist and the other isn’t.

I stated what I meant by that in my next post. I was simply saying that I am also an American and I couldn’t blink without someone else telling me Steve Jobs passed away. Text messages, phone calls, every website I visited all had the news. I don’t watch TV either and that’s why I was saying you don’t have to watch TV to know who he is or that he died. Now is that “stereotypical”? I think not.

Anyway…I’m tired of defending one remark I made that you and xstortionist are both blowing out of proportion.

You say we’re blowing things out of proportion, yet you call people on the forums a troll and that is acceptable?

Two wrongs don’t make a right. You’re morals need an update my friend.

Maybe you should go back and re-read the posts. I said “if” he was trolling it was bad form. Other people called him out on it. I never said that he was definitely trolling. Don’t talk to me about morals. I’m done with this conversation. This has gotten absolutely ridiculous.

Xtortionist, I apologize for upsetting you by questioning your knowledge of Steve Jobs. I’ve simply seen you make a lot of great posts on this forum and assumed you would’ve known who he was. I NEVER meant for this thread to turn into useless bickering and I’ll take partial responsibility for that. Again…my apologies to all.

DYS ,

It’s not a problem, I was done with the conversation, but MSA had to keep bringing it back up.

Main thing is that I know who Steve Jobs is now. and he will greatly be missed.

PS: It’s just the internet right? No need for us to be arguing about such stupid things. But you have to admit, a good argue is good for the soul.

Thanks!

Rest in Peace The iKing…. Just Got his Biography today so excited to read it, just have to find some time!
