Apple, iLove You, But You're Bringing Me Down

Just when I thought tuning in eagerly to watch Part 1 of 2 of the Project Runway finale couldn't get any lamer, Apple had to slap me in the face with yet another ad for one of their products with a catchy song that I actually like. I wonder who picks those songs… probably the same awesome smart person who creates their genius playlists, because I totally was suckered into buying it on- yes- iTunes. What marketing! Anyway, it's called "Bruises" by Chairlift, and it's a great song, so I don’t feel too badly. Plus, duh, I can identify with a song about being black & blue. Check out the ad below (but the rest of the song is better, look up it up on iTunes, or Google it or YouTube it or steal it, or something). So, thanks for the sweet song, Apple, and for making me feel like a huge tool.



Update: Uh, there’s a lot of bruised knee imagery here. Maybe this isn’t just about handstands. Shit.
