iPod boots with grape logo!

[AMG]

everytime I turn on my iPod (30gb, 3rd gen) it starts up with a grape instead of an Apple.

It also plays all my music backwards. It was fine for the first few songs but then I hit a Madonna song and now I'm possessed by demons.

Please help.

[TKS]

Well I dunno about the grape thing, but I think the backwards music playing can be fixed by holding the iPod upside down. :D

I'm fairly sure that you and your iPod need to be exorcised, AMG. You might consider calling a priest. You also might consider posting this amusing silliness in a more appropriate forum the next time lest some power happy mod (like me) exorcise you from the forums.

edit: I just realized how snotty that sounded. I should have included a couple of these: :D ;)

are you sure it's demons and not daemons? ;)

Maybe you have the Fruit-of-the-Loom version iPod... did you get it at Victoria's Secret?

I do think Madonna had it right though... music DOES indeed make the people come together!

*snicker*

Most definitely daemons.

I did some research and I beleive you are possed by a madlick spirit. These foul creatures of the night cling onto portable music devices in the night and then when you put the earbuds in your ears they slide up the wire and into your ear, where they spread throughout your body and slowly start taking over your motor functions.

I recommend to either decapitate yourself or die of natural courses, I'm sorry but it truly the only way..:(

"AMG is not here. You cannot talk to him now."

[AMG]

OK, it's better now that I decapitated myself (thank you, TKS!).

Those crazy madlick spirits!!! Yowzers! ;)

Philip Pullman wrote some #### fine books featuring a race of people who's souls appear as animal 'familiars' and lifetime companions.

UNIX is, I think, a brand of underwear, which have a little U-shaped cup thing that holds...

Are you sure it's not eunuchs, rather than UNIX? Now I know what those (eunuchs) are (or should I say aren't...)

And, I read somewhere, that if you listen to too much Madonna, you will become a eunuch (but if it's speed you're after, you can become a eunuch much quicker by a single listen-to to Debbie Boone's "You Light Up My Life"...)

did the update solve the problem

[destined_wind]

hey, i thought UNIX was what mac ox X and winxp is based on...

No, UNIX are those men who got castrated for religious reasons.

No, that's not it - I've heard people shouting "C'mon you Nix"....................

Nonono, you're thinking of castrati, who are castrated to remain sopranos. Like the BeeGees.

Unix are programmers who stay in windowless rooms and are never allowed to go home to their wives.

I can't believe James Gondolfini and Miami Steve consented to castration!

[Timmy Yak]

Castrated! I don't want to be castrated. :(

Why do you think they've had so many contract difficulties with HBO? I'm sure that castration clause was a problem.
