HOW TO: Make an iPad that doesn't look like an iPad but Apple might sue you anyway. [Part 2]

Now it's time to ward off some lawyers.

Tools you need:

• Samsung Galaxy Tab (mine has a slim-case, I never interact with Apple without proper protection)
• Apple Stickers of the Macbook you don't own anymore
• a ruler (maybe)

The stuff you need.

Carefully peel the sticker off the carrier-sheet.

Use a ruler to verify that the used fruit is centered.

Apply pressure.

(and don't forget to wash your hands later :-/)

It still doesn't look like an iPad.

It looks a little bit like an old iPhone though. Ewww!

And now: Sue me! (Nah, please don't)

New ways of communication. LOL, ROFL and beyond.

Many of you know these abbreviations that are used extensively all over the internet:
LOL, ROFL, LMAO etc.
Most of you love them, a few of you hate them. But the latest grammar-nazi-troll-food is the next step in modern communication: meme-based words. Recently I had an extensive discussion with some guy that tried to showcase his superiority by questioning my intelligence, just because I used a meme. "Awesome Sauce", a goofy word I used only once, was enough to act as a catalyst for an intellectual battle of epic dimensions. Well this guy was, to be honest, unarmed.
His main point was, that the common Internet slang just supports the "stupidification" of the common population by raping language (or something like that). I have to politely disagree. The inability to follow the rules of grammar or to build correct sentences and making typos are a problem, not these "new words" that are emerging.
