- gimmeslack12, on 05/22/2008, -35/+1074People are so ***** stupid.
- GregofJersey, on 05/22/2008, -16/+542Don't these people have JOBS?
- viditbhargava, on 05/22/2008, -14/+242they just have Steve Jobs :|
- hamburgers, on 05/22/2008, -21/+237Sounds like the plot for a bad M. Night Shyamalan film.
- WiZZLa, on 05/22/2008, -130/+331It's Improv Everywhere. You can bury the article now.
http://improveverywhere.com/ - wdowell, on 05/22/2008, -16/+209I just find this so funny! It's a tragic statement of humankind in this over-excited consumer society! I hope it goes on for another few hours and the queues get ridiculous before somebody breaks it to them that's there is nothing
- Globel, on 05/22/2008, -17/+184Good marketing team over there at apple.
- uzusan, on 05/22/2008, -2/+143I was expecting this to be from the onion.
- bundwallah, on 05/22/2008, -5/+108Or baaaaahhhhhhhhhh????
- wynja, on 05/22/2008, -18/+113Amen, come worship at the alter of overpriced consumerism.... i mean the apple store.
- bizarrorollins, on 05/22/2008, -19/+96.. says the person posting on digg at 2:45pm EST
- usingpond, on 05/22/2008, -3/+78Used to work at that store. This happened almost every day in the summer for no goddamn reason. People just wanted to check out the store or buy something; you see, the cube is also a tourist attraction.
- gimmeslack12, on 05/22/2008, -18/+90Mooooooo!
- charm803, on 05/22/2008, -4/+74As for myself, I was about to join the line....after all, everyone is doing it!
But unfortunately, I got stuck at a line at Starbucks.
I was just complaining about the ridiculously high gas prices...you know, almost $4 per gallon! But I finally got my $4 latte and now all is well...... - getbusyliving, on 05/22/2008, -8/+67Scratch that - ANY M. Night Shyamalan movie.
- alephbot, on 05/22/2008, -5/+64http://www.mrcharlietodd.com/post/35711495
Charlie Todd, founder of Improv Everywhere DENYING involvement in this. - tonich03, on 05/22/2008, -3/+57oh the pun!
- minorthreat, on 05/22/2008, -4/+57No, You don't have to be smart to take advantage of the stupid. You just have to know people are stupid.
- blazes816, on 05/22/2008, -1/+54*Splash*
- solscreen, on 05/22/2008, -2/+48Improv Everywhere has denied doing so. It's not them
Mr. Charlie Todd of Improv Everywhere has denied it:

- vagrantwade, on 05/22/2008, -2/+44Believe it or not, some people have jobs that require use of a computer with internet access.
- edwartica, on 05/22/2008, -1/+38What sound does a lemming make?
- wbowen05, on 05/22/2008, -5/+38This reminds me of a movie that I saw not too long ago about what our society is turning into:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Idiocracy - FutureGuy, on 05/22/2008, -3/+33Nothing Apple fans do these days surprise me.
- Rev0lver, on 05/22/2008, -5/+34As a New Yorker, I would like to completely sever all forms of association I have to those people.
- headzoo, on 05/22/2008, -4/+33Did they all forget, that the lines that queued up for the initial release of the iPhone were completely pointless? People could walk right into an Apple store and buy one. Anyone that stood in line for an iPhone completely wasted their time.
- FutureGuy, on 05/22/2008, -0/+27It helps they all have degrees in psychology, chemistry, African wild herbs and alien mind control devices, how else would one explain this.
- khail250, on 05/22/2008, -2/+29I saw them yesterday during lunch, they aren't allowed to lay down or sit slouched on the wall, they have the rent a cops yelling at them roughly every 3 minutes. reminded me of a bootcamp while high
- wdowell, on 05/22/2008, -1/+27And with these people, we wonder why the economy is bit wobbly..
- Dohko_Xar, on 05/22/2008, -7/+33you win the internets sir!
- brjndr, on 05/22/2008, -1/+26If you were a real mac user you would have used Moof.
- alephbot, on 05/22/2008, -1/+26No, it isn't. Zero proof backing up this statement.
- SirZRX, on 05/22/2008, -8/+30they are apple fans what do u expect?
- geneticlone, on 05/22/2008, -5/+26Um, its 12 on the west coast, lunch = digg.
- edwartica, on 05/22/2008, -2/+22Some people don't have a 9-5 schedule either. There's telecommuters, swing shift, free lance, and a myriad of other reasons why someone with a full time job might be on digg at 2:45 in the afternoon. And there's no reason to believe they're in your time zone either!
- phoomp, on 05/22/2008, -0/+20Too bad you're also apparently lying
http://www.mrcharlietodd.com/post/35711495/zachkle ... - cyclopropene, on 05/22/2008, -1/+21If by "job" you mean clean the cat box and take out the trash, then yes, a lot of them do.
- ileftfark, on 05/22/2008, -14/+34"I can't wait to get the new Apple!!!"
"The new Apple what?"
"I don't know! :)"
And also:
Wouldn't the story be more interesting if they had a "girl-on-girl-on-the-scene"?
Just me? - evanscott07, on 05/22/2008, -1/+201. dont announce that any new product is really coming out
2. line forms out side your store days from a potential announcement
3. ??????
4. profit - BoneheadFarker, on 05/22/2008, -2/+21So the best way to keep a fanboy occupied is to get 10 friends, stand in line in front of an Apple store until people off the street start joining the line, and then walk away? Sounds like a plan to me...
- bjornski, on 05/22/2008, -3/+22"What a twist!"
- hamburgers, on 05/22/2008, -2/+21Touche!
I wonder what the twist is going to be - ChromaVita, on 05/22/2008, -2/+20Oh god, I saw the word locals and thought it said lolcats. Somebody kill me please.
- blazes816, on 05/22/2008, -0/+18The twist is, they actually ARE waiting for something!
- JasonCox, on 05/22/2008, -4/+21Any chance I can borrow the 15ft Bill Gates hologram and have a little fun with the people waiting in line?
- Eminemdrdre00, on 05/22/2008, -14/+31This also happened a few weeks ago...weird NYers, must be something in the water!
And how do we know they are in line for the iPhone? - lostarchitect, on 05/22/2008, -3/+20dude, they're all tourists. locals don't line up. for anything.
- mark076h, on 05/22/2008, -6/+23i was just going to say
