Thanks for my mid-afternoon laugh.

DipDog3 · Sep 17, 2008, 06:18 PM

Funny and true!

We don't post many humor articles here on the iPhone blog but thought this JoyofTech cartoon was particularly relevant and funny.

Seems spot on to me. (:

Mykbibby · Sep 18, 2008, 10:13 AM

Love it: its nice to see some humor on Mac Rumors

Digipimp · Sep 18, 2008, 10:17 AM

are they actually going to come out with a flashlight app on the store?

Shasterball · Sep 18, 2008, 10:19 AM

I laughed. Apple need to be careful here...

Kilamite · Sep 18, 2008, 10:20 AM

Haha, very witty.

I like. Especially how it takes the piss out of Victor Wang.

jessica. · Sep 18, 2008, 10:22 AM

Holy **** that is funny and so accurate! Apple should take note and make adjustments.

Ashyukun · Sep 18, 2008, 10:22 AM

Someone should make an app and submit it for approval that works like a Magic 8-ball, only it's a 'Will My App Store Submission Be Approved?' generator, and randomly tells you it's either accepted or rejected (with a random reason why from the bank of them we know have happened, plus some funny ones like they came up with in this flowchart).

Something tells me Apple wouldn't approve it... but it would definitely be amusing to be a fly on the wall in the office when they saw it. :P

Niiro13 · Sep 18, 2008, 10:31 AM

Nice. The only thing is that the name thing is incorrect, but that's okay cause it's comical :P (I don't think apps can have the same name as I have yet to see one)

Who's Victor Wang?

DaveTheGrey · Sep 18, 2008, 10:37 AM

excellent!

in yo face

excluding cigarette lighter apps, there's like two or three flashlight apps at least. Some provide more utility by allowing you to change the color.

Or, you can do as we all do in really dark situations, fire up safari.

domness · Sep 18, 2008, 11:14 AM

Haha, Love all the comments about the flashlights :P

NinjaHERO · Sep 18, 2008, 11:33 AM

That's hilarious. I am glad someone is pointing out the silliness.

ucfgrad93 · Sep 18, 2008, 11:41 AM

This is very funny, I love it. However it was posted about yesterday in the following thread

Ahh, thanks! Interesting thing is, the flashlight applications pretty much all have different names.

Brianstorm91 · Sep 18, 2008, 12:36 PM

What about the option "Does its name begin with i?"
