“App for That” song pokes fun at App Culture – Has more green screen than a Cars video

Songwriters Jon Vezner and Si Kahn have written what they call “the quintessential anthem for all of us app addicts”, with “App for That.” I’m not entirely sure it will be a hit, but I must say, as an After Effects guy, I am very impressed with the sheer amount of compositing that went on to make this. It seems the guys are trying to be a little... Read More

What happens when the MacBook Air meets dynamite?

Now that the new MacBook Air has been released, I think it’s safe to say that the old one is completely useless. Macenstein reader Scott Gawlik and friend agree, and decided to see what would happen if someone were to set of two M-1000 explosives on it. The results are as follows. Now, normally I am not impressed by the “blowing up of tech” videos (especially... Read More

iPhone vs Sex: One Brave iPhone Addict Speaks Out

Photos by Joe Scarnici From the MacRumors Forums comes a tale so unsettling, so pathetic, and so (unfortunately) relate-able, that we felt we needed to pass it along. In response to the discussion thread “iPhone addiction”, forum member evilgreg shared this story of how he has become so iPhone addicted he literally pulled out mid-coitus to answer a We Rule push notification.... Read More

Sure, others have parodied Apple’s trademarked uber-pretentious mini product documentaries in the past, but Subaru’s latest series ads, featuring the “Mediocrity” are still funny as hell. Thanks to faithful Macenstein reader Fitz for the link!  Read More

NSFW: Well, that’s ONE way to get around Apple’s “No Boob Jiggling” policy

Apple may have put the kibosh on Boob Jiggling apps for its iOS devices, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that jiggling boobs cannot be stopped, and if they want to be on the iPhone, they’ll find a way. Case in point, the following image, showing how one clever individual was able to use Apple’s own software against them to bring those bouncing... Read More

New site asks, “Where’s Jobs?”

Much like Wonder Woman, Steve Jobs and his invisible jet could be virtually anywhere in the world right now. The question is, where? Well, one site dares to try to supply that answer, or at least have some fun trying. Behold, Where’s Jobs? Yes, Waldo’s got nothing on Steve. Whether it’s the Beijing Airport, the 5th Ave Apple Store, an anti-Vietnam War protest... Read More

I think I want to marry Chad

As we all know, a good man is hard to find – lord knows I haven’t found one yet. And while I may be happily married to the Bride of Macenstein, it doesn’t mean I wouldn’t ditch her in a second if I found a man like Chad, who, as you’ll see below, not only made a laboriously well-thought out marriage proposal video to his girlfriend Vy, but also might (almost)... Read More

Dogbert as Steve Jobs?

I’m not really sure what the point of this comic is… The block of wood sounds pretty cool, and I could totally see needing as many as 3 of them. What’s the joke? via dilbert.com  Read More
