persian-bay-cropped1. Pirate Bay. Renames itself “Persian Bay” in solidarity with Iranian protestors. Next, they’ll be rescuing kittens.

2. TomTom. Adds Homer Simpson “celebrity voice” to car GPS. No matter where you’re headed, you end up at a donut shop.

3. Apple. iPhone 3GS brings long lines and activation problems. Again. Maybe the S just stands for “suckers.”

4. Jammie Thomas. Now owes RIAA $1.9 million for sharing 24 songs. Including: I Fought the Law and the Law Fucked Me in the Ass.

5. Xbox 360. Whoopee, Project Natal is coming! Oops, never mind. Can’t these people do something useful, like wait in line for an iPhone?
