I'm losing faith in humanity

I can only imagine the meeting where they came up with the idea...

"The iPhone is great and all, but it seems to be missing something. I just can't put my finger on it."

"Farts?"

"That's it! You're a genius! We're all going to be rich!"

I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Look at the marvel of technology that we know as the Internet. 99% pornography and 1% lolcats.

factoring out the 30 percent cut Apple takes from each sale, and determined that, yesterday alone, iFart Mobile made its developers $9,198.

I guess people who own iphones have lots of things in common, and buying ridiculously useless phones leads to buying ridiculously useless software.

I wouldn't say it's just iPhone users. I would bet if there were progams like this for other mobile electronics they would be selling like hotcakes too.

Watch the movie "Idiocracy" sometime. That's where we are headed.

Ya know what? I downloaded it to my iPhone today......stupid or not.....it's darn funny. I'm okay with that;)

I smell IPhone Envy.

I love fart humor. It always gets a laugh!

The status that one gets when buying an Iphone seems to be a real value in comparison to to status gained from owning a $5,000 set of spinning rims.

I think it's a very funny movie, I like the satire, but when you think about it, it's not really that far fetched.

there was a boobs application for the iphone, but apple rejected it....

THAT is what's making you lose faith in humanity? :weirdface:

oh heck let's be honest... we all just wish we were the ones making the 10,000 a day from this app!

There are a TON of things that make me question my faith in humanity. But yes, the fact that there were 14 fart noise applications released for the iPhone in a single day is one of them.

Some other reasons I've noted as of late:

Woman sues friend for pulling her out of a wrecked car after an accident.

Walmart worker trampled to death by mob of Black Friday shoppers.

Man dressed as Santa goes on shooting spree, including shooting an 8 year old girl in the face, for revenge against ex-wife.

New York woman awarded millions in lawsuit after being hit by a subway train. Sounds reasonable, until you learn she was laying on the tracks in an attempt to commit suicide.

Man assaults girlfriend with cheeseburger.

Man assaults father with Christmas tree.

Burger King has now launched it's own line of cologne called "Flame". They describe it as "the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat."

Here is a video of the iPhone breasts app that someone mentioned:

The list could go on and on...

I try my best to believe in my fellow man/woman, but with stuff like this going on, it can be tough.

Since some of you poopy pants are lacking in a little faith out there in internet wonderland try reading this...

In the end, 47 of the 51 Vick dogs were saved. (Two died while in the shelters; one was destroyed because it was too violent; and another was euthanized for medical reasons.) Twenty-two dogs went to Best Friends, where McMillan and his staff chart their emotional state daily; almost all show steady improvement in categories such as calmness, sociability and happiness. McMillan believes 17 of the dogs will eventually be adopted, and applicants are being screened for the first of those. The other 25 have been spread around the country; the biggest group, 10, went to California with BAD RAP. Fourteen of the 25 have been placed in permanent homes, and the rest are in foster care.
