The Ipod one was pretty funny. I think there are already sites up for smashmyps3 and smashmyrevolution...good for him. People like to see stuff get smashed. If 100,000 people get 1 hour of enjoyment out of this, then isn't that better than 1 kid who gets 2,000 hours of enjoyment our of it

I am going to put it on a DVD bring my friends over. And watch it on my big screen TV. I will have popcorn and soda.

Once he releleases all of the other ones I will put all of them on the DVD and then Invite my friends over, again and then watch it on my big screen TV, again. Then have popcorn and soda, again.

Here's one of the hate mail letters from the smashmyipod site.

Quote:
How can you live knowing ur busting the greatest invention in 30+ years, the Ipod. ITs soooo great, i have 4 of them, a mini, 20gig, photo and shuffle, and i might get the Nanz0r. OMG thought. You could donate that shitty dirty mexican money of urs to charity, but ur to mothermunking gay. Go suck a nut. OMG poor kids would be like O My Godz0r an Ipood and they would be happy. They could have cancer n u couyld make them happy, but ur so mean ur like Noooo, ur stupid n have cancer, were gunna break it! for what a cheap ass laugh??? ASS BUTT FUCKES
I loved it the person wasn't mad about wasting 400$ that could have been spent in better ways just to break something, or the outrage at the random wanton destruction, he was just mad because "omg you smashed an Ipod". Letters like that make it all worthwhile.

You're an idiot. Who are you to determine how a customer wishes to use a product that he has legitimately purchased? You are not the owner of the store, it is not up to your discretion to choose to accept or refuse someone's money. Furthermore, how are you to say that they will not get more value and enjoyment out of breaking their x-box 360 than a kid who gets it for christmas and never plays it.
First off

*punches you right in the goddamn face*

Secondly

*punches you in the goddamn stomach*

Thirdly, it's a publicity stunt designed to serve no purpose. What are these guys going to accomplish? They will make whoever the first person in line to be told "Sorry, we're all sold out" violently angry. They just want to do it to "piss off fanboys", but that's a really stupid reason, partly because wanting to piss off any kind of fanboy usually means whomever is simply a fanboy of something else.

I'm just going to leave this up to you've never worked retail. You have NO IDEA what it's like dealing with upset people who had money they were going to spend and now cannot for whatever reason. I dunno, maybe it IS just me not wanting to see people suffer in any way, but this kind of stuff doesn't do anyone any good.

I think that is a pretty good reason right there. American culture is too materialistic. If the destruction of an inanimate object like a video game system can drive someone to violence and this behavior is socially accepted, then perhaps society has a few issues to deal with.

Quote:

No, I too, do not have any idea what it is like dealing with upset people etc. but I do know that you should not feel guilty nor should you take abuse from anyone who is unhappy due to circumstances outside of your control.

Having an Xbox360 can only make someone temporarily happy, or until the person finds something else he/she wants, if that.

Personally, I think this whole campaign for smashing things for the sake of pissing off a bunch of people is hilarious in that it evokes so much emotion...sadness, hatred, anger..hell, you'd think it was 9/11 all over again.
