Are you in the southern USA? Just curious, because I've noticed that people in the south or from the south generally tend to do things like that. I mean they call all soda coke. You can get Dr. Pepper Coke, Mt. Dew Coke, Pepsi Coke, and Coke Coke.
Also, they like to call portable CD players "head phones" and portable dvd players DVD TVs. This used to confuse the hell out of me at Kmart, since I'd get all these people from Burton (Buuuurrrtucky! Its a little piece of the south in Mid Michigan) asking for headphones, and then wondering where the portable cd players are...
So Michigan is in the south now?
Burton is. Its not called burtucky for nothing. Bunch of Hicks.

So, I'm at work last week, listening to my mp3's, and quietly minding my own business, doing my job. All of a sudden, this girl sees my mp3 player, a Creative Muvo TX-FM, which is smaller than a cigarette lighter, stops in her tracks and asks:
Blonde Bimbo: "OMG, what kind of ipod is that, it's SO tiny??"
Me: "It's not an IPOD"
BB: "Huh????? What do you mean?"
Me: "It's an mp3 player, not an ipod."
BB: "What do you mean?? Aren't they all ipods??"
Me: *rolls eyes, gives a big sigh, and turns up the music*
BB: Walks away embarassed.
I can't believe how brainwashed a lot of people are in believing all mp3 players are ipods. I actually was offended that she'd think I'd ever buy anything Apple related.

ATOT member hit on
ATOT member smugly doesn't notice
ATOT member misses chance to hit it.
Besides, who cares? iPods have become synonymous with the class of products--like Pampers, Kleenex, and Frigidaire.
I care. Stupid people annoy me.

zactly!!! QFT... you missed it big time
I get plenty, thanks for your concern though. So you're nice to people you don't like just for the one in a million chance that you'll get laid by said person? Reeks of desperation to me.

Ummm, she probably just wanted to start a conversation. Way to lose a chance to get to know a girl man.... :roll:
What about everyone's favorite Frisbee? I always call them novelty flying discs myself, fight the power.
BTW: You know you are supposed to capitalize trademarks, right? The patent office is going to get you guys!
Edit: It's also comical to see the people that don't read the entire thread, and post about 'hitting that'. Missing the info that was already given, that said female is a)married, b)not on the bright side.

I've worked with her for 6 years, believe me, I, and everyone else in my dept know her as a brown-noser and a kissass tattletale, who everyone avoids as she goes straight to the directors to earn brownie points. She doesn't talk to someone unless she wants something, and I wasn't in the mood for idle conversation.
That's alright. People think my Girlfriend's insulin pump is a freaking cellphone. Yeah her phone has a wire connected to her body you idiot.
