I'm Bandwagoning

So there's been a lot of talk about Bill Gates on the BBC website today.  I imagine there's some PR stunt being pulled, maybe the Windows 8 release is imminent?  Anywho, I've always said that people eulogising His Highness Jobs are idiots; whereas those praising High King Gates are somewhat more rational, purely because he has given more away in his life than the whole of England have ever given away for red nose day.


If you think you are relevant, you are wrong.  So wrong.  All the money you, your friends, your company, your family and everyone in your town ever give are insignificant.  It's nothing.

Consider the following:


Or you can think about it the other way round.  Your pittance pays for the staff who work at the charities (shock horror, not all your money goes to the needy, even if they say it does) leaving the many billions Bill donates to pay for the actual treatments and whatnot.

So yes, like everyone else I was setting this trend before it became a trend (the trend of praising his Billness).

Of course this is all very depressing, so here is something to make you forget about all that.

  1. another point about gates vs jobs - Gates stole jobs' source for the o/s but admitted it whereas jobs stole it in the first place and forever denied it - oh yeah and who's still alive...

  2. just think about that pig licking for 1 second - the person who took the picture thought it more appropriate to get his camera, aim and frame it and press the button - all rather than stopping the kid licking the pig. Amazing what does or doesn't go through someone's head
