wtf

A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Im sorry but the parents need to tell their little girl to toughen up. Apple's legal policy is totally understandable

it wasnt what they said so much as how they said it

they could have said thanks for the letter. we dont want to steal your ideas, but it was thoughtful of you to write us.

or they could have not responded at all and then mom would have just said theyre busy people and girl would have been like oh ok lets go play.

or something...

maybe it was a pre fabricated letter. im sure apple gets thousands of letters everyday. not enough time to respond to each one individually.

telling the third-grader that Apple doesnt accept unsolicited ideas, so she should not send them her suggestions and if she wants to know why, she could read their legal policy posted on the Internet.


and i dont really see that as mean. if she is going to be big girl enough to write a letter to the company then she should be big girl enough to take what their letter said. i dont really blame her. i blame the parents for blowing it out of proportion and alerting the media.

word

if it were my little girl i would have done this:


told her to grab a sheet of paper and a marker

write the following:
FUCK YOU

send it back


at least she may have felt a lil justice
