Evidence iPod users are insane
This NY Times article almost reads like something from The Onion. It chronicles the complaints and conspiracy theories about the iPod's Shuffle feature (which randomly cycles through the songs stored on the device). Many users, including the 3 nitwits interviewed, are claiming that the iPod has favorite artists or that it can sense (or can't sense) their mood. I had to read the entire thing to make sure there wasn't some disclaimer that the article was a parody.

Here are some of my favorite parts:
1. From a guy who thinks his iPod knows when he needs some inspiration while biking: The iPod "knows somehow when I am reaching the end of my reserves, when my motivation is flagging,'" Mr. Greist insisted. "It hits me up with 'In Da Club,' and then all of a sudden I am in da club."

2. From another guy who, for some reason, has a Ruben Studdard song on his iPod: "It really likes Ruben Studdard," the winner of "American Idol's" second season, Mr. Angus said. This, despite the fact that he only has one song of Mr. Studdard's - the soulful ballad "Sorry 2004" - stored on his 20-gigabyte player. "There's nothing worse than when you are having an intense workout and Ruben comes on," he said, "but it seems to always happen to me."

3. From a woman who thinks her iPod's Shuffle function should know her mood: "It was totally not reading my moods," she said. It would play upbeat music when she was feeling low, and dark, somber selections when she was feeling upbeat.

I love to give Apple users a hard time; however, this is almost too easy.
