What.....................................
a tool.
Just wondering? Does anyone actually care what this guy thinks? Needless to say, I dont find myself inspired by his works.
aw, and I used to like Kevin Smith
I guess I missed the memo where computers were male OR female so you had to explain your love for them that way. I wonder how he feels about toasters?...
"but I'm gay for Mac" does that mean all Mac users are gay?
What a fag.
So he thinks Macs are gay...
"but I'm gay for Mac" does that mean all Mac users are gay?
BAD JOKE ALERT!
He's probably.....'Hot' for them.....
/shoot_self_in_face
Anyone who likes Mac are Gay? I suppose that's appropriate
I think he meant "I'm unfunny for Mac". Kevin Smith is a loser.
I must say Apple is an a pretty poor condition if this is their best shot at a suitable host.
Actually, he's quite right about being gay for Mac. In French and other Romance languages, a computer is male. The only problem is that this identifies every male computer user as a gay...
lol he's not gay. he's stupid!
I'm amused how people take offense to a little joke on his part. He like's Macs, be happy!
teehee. i love these comments.
Nice pic... guess he's catching.
LOL. It's kinda funny since I found that Mac's customers are stereotypically metrosexuals or those who want to appear as a metrosexual.
He should stay as Silent Bob and let Jay do all the trash talking.
so... mac is a male???
/kiss_my_pc
on a serious note he's a total tool... and that pic really makes him look stupid... on second thoughts, that pic digust me...
can you answer questions for 2 hours and make it interesting?... think not...
i would even dare to ask all of the above posters can you even keep a conversation going for more than 15 minutes?... NO. people HATE working products around here...
speaking of 'gay' (all of us pc' hobbyist) know PC's require alot of f*cking to make work... it's the one thing you don't need to do with a mac.... THEREFORE a mac is not GAY because one doesn't need to f*ck with it to use it.
gay for mac... get a sense of humour... it means that you are exclusively into that product... I wish people would stop the homophobia and think...
and while i at it i'm going to say "i'm gay for gay marriage"... i.e. i support gay marriage....
Gah, he was just asked to be a guest speaker at the Macworld explo, on the subject of independent film, and he thought it would be funny to say "I like Mac computers" in a silly way. Lets blow this out of proportion tho.
OH NO! Random rich guy likes Macs! This is news?
ahahahahahhaahhahah
no wait,
hahhahahahahahhahahaha
ok I'm done.
Since when did computer platform identify someone's sexual orientation? I'm waiting for offended homosexual Windows, Linux, or Unix users who don't want anything to do with Apple to chime in. LOL
Also, are people that brain dead to think that just because a persons sexual orientation is gay, that they all buy particular brands of cars, computers, etc...
LMAO! I love kevin smith leave it to him to start a bunch of drama. AH now if he would only make another movie like DOGMA such a great great movie.
My god Jane!, the hate, the hate for the Macs is strong in the Intertubes!!, and you summon it!!
new products:iGerbiliSwallow; and don't forget the the cheaper iSpit versioniSitOnMyFaceAndTellMeYouLoveMeiSitAndSpiniAreYouSureYouWashedThat....this could go on for a loooonng time...
So did using a Mac turn him gay or was he gay and decided he likes Mac's ? Kinda gives new meaning to the switch campaign.... At any rate a poorer choice of words could not have been made lol
lol kevin smith, couldn't they get anyone better oh wait thats right macs are starting to be hated
I just lost a bit of respect for someone whom I admire for openly admitting to daily marijuana use.
How is this news? this is not a celeb gossip site. -1 pt. for Toms.
Let the flaming begin!!! hmmm I guess that could have a double meaning in this context...
This is fascinating. I think there's a hidden meaning in Smith's words. When he says he's "gay for Mac," it's likely he means "Mac" from the TV commercials, actor Justin Long, who appeared in Smith's movie "Zack & Miri Make a Porno" as....wait for it...a GAY PORN STAR! It all ads up!
Jane, I think we need some more digging here. And by digging, I mean reporting and not that other thing....
Interesting, I quite enjoy Kevin Smith. Love his Q&A things.
