Switch Ad jokes
I don't know if some one has already posted this, and I apologize if they have, but it is hilarious and so true. I have been mostly pleased with the switch ads except for that halucenating girl. here is the link:

I believe Apple sent the attack lawyers after a Japanese site that did a similar parody a few years back.
[quote] You guys are so mean. Just leave the poor girl alone. Teenagers have enough shit to deal with already.<hr></blockquote>
I feel bad for those who make jokes about Ms. Feiss, but I can't deny the humor in what they say.
Remember, she got payed MONEY for doing that ad. I don't feel sorry for her one bit, on the contrary, I feel happy for her that she got such an opportunity.
Teenagers get already enough shit?
Then if you are a teenager don't do a public appearance in change of money. Enjoy your joints at home, not ten minutes before filming the ad you are getting paid for...
If the things she hears at school are nasty then why don't you look around in your school and listen a bit what the fat kids hear daily?

... where can i buy one of those?
"Oh, poor girl, she is a teenager, so the fact that she sounds stupid should be excused. And on that note, I'm gonna go buy a mac."
It doesn't happen people. Apple really needs to be careful with who they choose for their ads.
This parody is not making fun of apple. It is making fun of a person in a questionable ad campaign.

The commercial shows a perfect normal teenager. She is probably more capable of talking to a camera than I was at her age and despite that I left high school with grades within the top 0,2% that year.
Time for one of Anders few generalisations: Anyone who thinks Ellen Feiss is taking drugs, a retard, a drop out or anything like that is spending too much time in that fantasy world that excists in the media where you are either 1) Perfect periode or 2) retards, croocks, criminals, terrorists etc.
In the real world 90% of all people are...dare I say it...NORMAL. Those who can´t spot normality should spend a bit more time in the real world.
The redness of the eyes probably comes from the way they washed out the white background or something.

I guarantee you. This girl is in the best third of her age. And her "emotional intelligens" or whatever it is called is in the top 10 percent.

As for the rest of the "Would ya do her?" sickos on the net, please remember that this is a little girl you're all talking about.
I mean, I act stupid 'cause it's the net, and that's what the medium deserves, but I get the feeling that a lot of people out there are just that stupid in real life.

And as irritating as the Dell guy is, he is somewhat eloquent, even if he only speaks colloquially and at a teenage level.
Do you think that the kids who will be asking their parents to get them a computer will remember the Dell guy or Ellen Feiss more positively? I for one say the dell guy even though he is annoying (i've said that twice now).
