I love the tags for this post.
America, Patriotic, USA
for a fucking MP3 player...
Tech savy Jihadists will reconsider shooting it full of holes.
I say we fill them with Micheal Bolton songs and drop them over Iraq and Afghanistan. It would end the war.
*applauds*
Anyone who doesn't like it is a Communist!
I'm not a communist, I'm just french, but I could easily imagine that this ugly piece of shit will fit perfectly all right in all american assholes
"it's about showing off your American spirit with this Chinese-made product..."
Filled with British duran duran.
re: papafew
with a comment like that, you certainly have proven your frenchiness
Not to mention he will eventually surrender to this DAP.
Yeah, thanks for using "reply" to mention that Duran Duran is British well after I mentioned it in the normal flow of the thread (fifth post, even). It's not like your comment was even a proper reply to the original comment (*applauds*) above.
Way to circumvent the dating system and get your post saying the exact same thing I did earlier, and yet take credit for it being "before" mine.
Enjoy your ill-gotten up-vote!
Guess he just ain't as patriotic as you, ZeroCorpse.
*cue theme music*
"...America! F*ck Yeah!.."
Coming again, to save the mother fucking day, yea!
"Nothing strikes fear into the heart of an anti-American jihadist like this hideous MP3 player loaded up with Deerhoof b-sides and the entire Duran Duran back-catalog. The next time you snake under barbed wire and behind enemy lines, let them know where you're coming from by flashing this baby before you unload round after round of righteousness."
^ How I lawl'd at that part!
Duran Duran?
You DO realize they're an English rock band, don't you? I'm not sure how they fit with a stars & stripes theme. They would probably prefer a Union Jack.
Take that, commies
I think 1gb might, and I mean might, just be enough storage for all of my versions of the Star Spangled Banner. That and maybe some pictures of the flag if it supports it.
Oh, and my weekly podcast that informs of the current terror level.
iSousa?
I don't want to have to replace my stuff when I move to a more sane country like south korea, japan, or the netherlands, so I think I'll pass on this.

Not picking on Korea here, but it goes to show that no country is perfect. This is just off the top of my head; I'm sure there are similarly bizarre things in Japan and Holland. Including the US, all four countries have made countless contributions to global society, and giving a general criticism such as questioning the sanity of the country is not helpful.
There are literally millions of people that would love nothing more than to be a citizen of any of these countries. And as America still has the largest part in dictating the future of the world, consider yourself lucky to be American where your voice can be heard. Just don't waste it sniping.
Anti-American sentiment is sooooooo 2007.
No, Anti-American sentiment is very reasonable throughout 2008. However, it will stop on Jan 20th, 2009.
leave it
leave it
Flush it down the potty.
Wait, no, you can't do anything to it, it can't touch the ground, be upside down, etc...good luck getting rid of this one once it's obsolete!
> "Flush it down the potty."
But it's got the American flag on it! That's so unpatriotic, you’ve gotta be a god-damn terrorist!!! That or sane.
I’ll play it on the safe side and assume you’re a god-damn terrorist.
NO! I'm no terrorist!
:lol:
Ah.
More American flags made in China.
"Ironic" it is. :)
leave it.
How do you change the volume? I guess with America, it'll always be on Max.
CS: "No no no, it isn't DAMAGING your hearing, it's LIBERATING it. Huge difference."
No, you got it wrong, top volume is X-treme Loud! If it's not X-treme, then it's un-American (they're so stupid that way)
a volume button??
Any article that puts violence and the word 'righteousness' together gets an A+ in my book
So every time you turn it on, it plays Star-Spangled Banner, LOUD
This should prove quite popular in the Middle East and Afghanistan, like American flags have been for quite some time (for the wrong reasons we see too much on TV)
and let me guess... its only available at SAMS Club.
putting a flag on that thing is like putting lipstick on a pig and trying to pass it off as a pretty woman...
Damn this is too much. It`s f***** ridiculous!
Man... if they just cut off the two bottom points of that start shaped button thingy and repainted it white and red, we could have a Canadian MP3 player for the win!!!
And on the bottom for the Quebec French edition, we could have an inscription saying "I'm a souvenir" or whatever their motto is....
"Je me souviens"... Anyways
Turn the Red button ON and you'll have the China flag.
Turn the Moon button ON and you'll have the Turkey flag.
Turn the Oven button ON and you'll have a famous Star Anise Pods Beef Tenderloin.
And so, and so.
"I'm a souvenir"
HAHAHA!! :D
Perfect for dollar stores across the country! Would make great counter toppers!
Holy shit... I was thought it said ZUNE spirit at first, and I almost committed suicide.
Ha ha, if you'll commit suicide over a Zune, you need an iPod. I considered killing myself when the Zune hit the market! The end of times I tells ya!
Love American Style...
HA! The kids will never get that reference. :D
@Toby ... feel free. I'll throw a glottal zune, zune, zune, dirge sort of sound for in for inspiration. Seppuku to you. In other news, this is the ultimate 7-11 impulse buy.
Nothing wrong with Deerhoof B-sides ;)
As for the product, Homestarrunner might like it?
