{ Last 12 phrases uttered while trying to sync my new iPod with iTunes }

1) WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK?!?!!
2) Goddammit not again....
3) FUCK STEVE JOBS
4) Fuck...
5) STUPID FU....oh hey Grandma.
6) Finally....WHAT THE HELL?!?!?!
7) YOU BETTER NOT FUCKING FUCK!!!!!
8) Shit-eating sonofabitch!
9) ARRRRGGGHHHHHHH
10) Yes I'll hold.
11) (to AppleCare Support) Yeah - I was just calling to thank you for updating the firmware on the new, 4G iPods and breaking the compatibility with the VIA chipset WHICH I USE. It feels really good to drop $500.00 on a new iPod and accessories and have it sit on my desk for 2 days.
12) Actually, I don't want you to troubleshoot it. I just want you to release a firmware patch that fixes this crap without me having to go buy a new Firewire card kthx. (click)

I'm glad this story has a happy ending.
I'm still rocking my Sony Sports Weatherproof Cassette Walkman from 1989. It got kinda melted and now I can't switch out tapes, so I just listen to side 2 of Anthrax's Persistence of Time over and over again.
Fuck all that iPod technology!
