@seanmahair – I’m pretty sure that middle-aged moms were the driving force behind Twilight.

@DamnCat – Man, I wish you would have told me before I beat myself up.

And we all know that teens loyalty lasts about as long as their attention span, half a nanosecond. Ask a teen what their favorite color is three days in a row and you’ll get 3 different answers. Yes we should all make decisions based on what teens with their wealth of experience and their maturity and their organizational abilities bring to the discussion. That is if we can get them to stop rolling their eyes, listening to their IPods and ignoring any adult over 20. These are the same people who made the Twilight series popular. Please.

@mikeszekely – You said it unironically – so you’re good.

I can say, unironically, that I had an Android phone before they were cool.

Oh crap, I think that makes me a hipster!

I make sure that I stay at least a few “generations” behind technology for the sole purpose of embarrassing my kids.

Is it too late to get a Zune?

Like Frank would have a photo of a Microsoft Kin just lying around.

My bad. I thought that it was Frank’s post, not Basil’s.

Because I always make my several-hundred-dollar purchases based on what some 14-year-old thinks.

Just wait until Buttercup is fourteen, Frank.

Apple supposedly cut orders for iPhone 5 components — except for the screens, the most expensive part of all. Sounds like they were either overstocked on the other components or they’re shifting the load to other vendors. Virtually every tale of “slipping” iPhone sales has proven false over the years.

Phones – who cares? I don’t even answer when people call me from across the room.
