Use this: instead of a frisbee to really impress people at the disc golf course! Don’t use this: if you don’t want everyone asking, “HEY, IS THAT AN IPAD? NO? THEN WHAT IS IT?” Benjamin Franklin said of this: “I’d fly this thang on a kite in in a thunderstorm without battin’ an eye! F’real!” […]

Musicians know that a note is the smallest unit of measurement. If you ask a musician what time it is, they say “Four measures past six!” If you ask a musician what kind of sandwich they want, they say “Get me a twelve-bar meatball combo!” And if they want a tablet? Get ’em a Galaxy […]

Use this: to do everything you do with an Android tablet AND do it with a Bluetooth keyboard. Don’t use this: as a body-building weight. A can of green beans would be heavier. If you owned this, people would say: “OK, jeez, sorry, your ‘XYBOARD.’ I’ll make sure I never call it an iPad ever […]

Use this: for a full on-the-go computing experience, from ignoring your emails to doctoring your expense reports. Don’t use this: by trying to fold it into a truck or something. Wrong Transformer.

Use this: if you believe it’s time to start replacing the out-of-date Zs with some fresh, forward-thinking Xs. This just posted on Facebook: “Am I on Facebook, or is Facebook on me??!?!?! :0” At the local watering hole, this would order: something in a tall glass. Not everything in life should be flat. Variety, people! […]

“Sir, we’ve done it! We’ve discovered a way to travel back in time!” “Excellent news. How did you manage it?” “Our team tried nearly everything. Finally we found that if we took a Sony P dual-screen tablet, loaded this animated GIF* on each screen, and folded it so the GIFs were facing each other, the […]
