Microsoft Zune Launch Party

This thread of comments saddens me. I don't think there could be any other collective sentiments that define exactly why tech-infactuated-misanthropes who subsist on WoW (yes I cringe at that accronym) don't fare well in social settings.

Why were you guys at the party at 915? Of course no-one was there. it's 915! People are still eating dinner and 'pre-drinking' at that point. Its a party, not a bloody door crasher event for fricking Halo 3.

Whats with complaining about the bartenders. They are a million miles out of your league buddy and your rants of their seemingly normal "tip sign" wreaks of sexual ineptitude. There's this thing called 'charm' and 'saying nice things' that bode better with the fairer sex than complainging how 'pushy' they are. Perhaps spending some money on tips would get you the tits. Complaining on how their requests were uncouth is cool if you are Mr. McBuzzkill from Dullsville, USA.

You guys got a lonnnnng way to go in the world of socialization and you would probably fare better if you took notes from the skinny jeaned 'fags' you guys shat on. At least they are fun and get laid.

Damn. I was busy these past few days & now the video isn't available anymore!

so no free zune? what crap! hopefully there is a TEO MP-301 launch party! I think Mr. You-know-who has more money to spend than bill gates.

John, I like how your blog is becoming a video blog. The first of its kind, and you're starting a new trend in blogging.

The chick who wanted turning on didn't look bad, so not a total bust but you'd think Microsoft could manage something a little bit more classy.

Next time I'd suggest they go with unlimited free beer and maybe some pole dancers, that would work for me.

why were you guys the first one to show up again ?? ...... wait isn't that the rule for the party that you show up about an hour or so later

hahaha, Apple probably hosted it and made it looks absolutely pathetic for the Zune.

Wow, now that was a party! I hope for Microsoft's sake the Zune sells better than the party was attended.

You would think a billion dollar company like Microsoft would know how to throw a good party.

Zune party sounds like punishment. "If you keep misbehaving in school Jimmy I might not get you the iPod for Christmas! Would you like that? Perhaps you'll get a Zune and have to stay with your grandparents in New England next summer! :twisted: Is that what you want?! A Zune so the other kids will laugh at you and throw rocks!?

That's a sad looking party... down with Microsoft!

...hello Apple. :)

Looks like someone's college party! Too bad it was so dark or else the Apple t-shirt might get noticed more!

I have watch this on the news! :idea:

shows you how terrible the zune is, and its marketing.

Wow, what a sad looking party, but thankfully some people did show up in the end. Even so... that is a tiny room for a M$ party.

@Ed Lau - It wasn't an industry party, it was open to anybody. The real party was in Burnaby.

Haha "Wheres the iPod party?".
Amen.

Hey John, looks like the party was a bust. Not even a free Zune? Cheap-o Microsoft.

Hey John, was that just me or was there PANDA picture on the wall!?

It’s not their fault, what were you doing there on time? Don’t you know it’s common curtsy and sense to arrive at parties at least one and half hour late?

Bill should spend few 1k$ more for party :wink:
But still looks cool :cool:

The Zune probably won't do well until the 3rd or 4th generation model is released. MS is usually doesn't get it right the first time, but they learn from their mistakes and make great improvements later. Anyways, I would rather have a Zune than an iPod. :)

People that usually goes to party every week don't get in there on time. It's cool to get late because everybody can notice when you get there.

Newbies! Ever heard of 'fashionably late'?
