Smash My iPod?? The DEUCE, You Say!!

Wow--you know, I'm just sure I should be horrified at this, but I think because I am not a hardcore capitalist I think this is actually kind of fun, in a stupid, wasteful kind of way. Don't know what I'm talking about? Let the following domain name spell it out for you:

No, it's not a site where people volunteer to smash their iPods. Basically, they take donations to buy an iPod. Once they have enough cash, they go into an Apple store, buy a brand new iPod and then smash it to bits right in the store. What's even better? They bring video cameras.

It sounds absurd, but this pales in comparison to the stupid crap Letterman has been doing on his show for over a decade. Do you know how much it costs to hire a union guy to run a steamroller over a Malibu Barbie Dream House? Probably about the same as it costs to buy an iPod.

Anyway, head on over and check out the pics of the smashed ViPod.

OK, that is a little urksome to type.

Oh and they're promising to have video up of their first smashing soon. I wonder if it will be playable on the ViPod... not theirs, of course!
