Default Humor - Top 10 Failed Countermeasures To Destroy The Blu-ray DVD Format

I'm so new I smell funny (okay, that's not actually why I smell funny, but that's an entirely different post...) and I can't post a new thread anywhere but here yet...

I found this on the zip.ca forum and thought I'd share...

The Top 10 Failed Countermeasures To Destroy The Blu-ray DVD Format:

10) Bill Gates purchased the entire world supply of blue paint, hoping to cause Blu-ray DVD prices to skyrocket!

9) Super Elite XBox 360 shipped with 8-track tape player.

8) Imprisoned and tortured the Blue Man Group until they revealed the Blu-ray DVD secret ingredients.

7) Developed new DVD format called Navy Blur-ray that was worse than VHS quality.

6) Hired private investigators to prove that all of Picasso's Blue Period paintings were actually painted by a crazy monkey!

5) Microsoft offered free downloads of new online tv series called "Everybody Hates Blu-Raymond!"

4) All HD-DVD's were fortified with Vitamin C!

3) Paid Osama bin Ladan lookalike to announce that Blu-ray is the official DVD format of terrorism.

2) Microsoft asked Oprah to start an HD-DVD movie watching club, but Dr. Phil advised her not to.

1) Bill Gates challenged SONY's president to an arm wrestling contest -- best 3 out of 5, winner takes it all, but lost.
Enjoy!

Bill bought BDs as frisbees for his dogs.

11. Tried to get Bunny Blue and Ashley Blue to change their names (because everyone knows that pr0n wins the format war! ) but failed.

Sometimes the truth can be more humourous than fiction, and so:

"Secured exclusivity from Paramount."

Yeah, that should definitely be number one on any top ten list of failed countermeasures to destroy blu-ray.
