Steve Jobs Resigns as Apple CEO

[Atac]

Was he the reincarnation of Elvis or something?

To a lot of people yes. People worship this guy. Check out the documentary MacHeads for many laughs and cringes.
Elvis wasn't all that either.

Watched that recently, people treat that company like some sort of religion or something.

You admitted yourself you only met him for a few brief moments when he was in a stressful work situation.

Well it's the small things that count. I'm not calling him a dick without having had this experience anyways, right? Sorry for justifying why I dislike the guy, as opposed to just writing "fuck him." BTW thanks for the puzzle Einstein. Looking forward to more posts where you articulate your points so bluntly.

You're welcome.

ah seriously

here's my one time personal cancer story and then it goes back into the emotional trauma bin of stuff i dont talk about.

in may of 1996 my brother started getting headaches. He was 12 years old and was a budding football linebacker (headaches common if you're throwing your weight around)

Anywho so we took him to the doctors... they attributed it to playing football sent on his way, Headaches got worse, sent him back.... at one point the doctor said "it is possibly hormones ala puberty. No solution. Finally after a few weeks they FINALLY do a mri/CT scan..... and on may 26th, 1996, my 14th b-day they found a lemon sized brain tumor in my little bro's head.

(getting to the point of my story here)

Anywho from May 26th onward his situation was a crazy whirlwind story. They removed the tumor, and things began to look promising. his headaches were gone, after a few weeks he was playing football in the streets, playing basketball, all looking good.

Then on August 14th 1996 they found the cancer had spread to his spine. August 16th they began chemo.... by August 23rd he had developed hundreds of small tumors in his spinal region and lost the ability to use his legs. On August 25th they ceased the chemo and sent him home on a 24/7 morphine drip basically to pass away peacefully.... and on September 13, 1996.... friday the 13th... the same day tupac died... my bro passed at the age of 12. 110 days after finding the first tumor.

Turned out he had a form of cancer called Glioblastoma multiforme NF3. He apparently was only the 4th documented case of that specific type of GBF to occur in someone under the age of 25. His case was so rare that harvard medical team asked us if they could have his body to research and document and of course we obliged.


(finally my point) Years later a harvard medical research team would find that the original tumor in my brothers head would go from the size of a pea to the size of a lemon in the initial 10 days he began getting those headaches. I can't even imagine the pain that caused him to have literally a l emon growing in your skull pressing on your brain and outter skull. It baffles my mind how aggressive cancer can be and how it can ravage someones body that quickly and how incapable as a society we are against it.

This dude has all the money in the world and is getting ravaged

(sorry if my story was a buzz kill)

yeah still not too major... he still looks like hell.

He was nothing more than a rude asshole in the brief moments I met him.

are you retarded?

I guess so, since I can't figure out how you came to ask that question.

Think about what you said. Still don't get it, then don't worry your pretty little head.

No, this is interesting to me. I formulated an opinion about a person I've met, the person who happens to be the subject of this thread, and you call me retarded. Please elaborate wise one.

Antlion is a self proclaimed teenage misanthrope after his parents told him to tidy his room. I hope that clears things up for you.
