"Săracă şi abandonată de elita ei, România reală este sufocată de fantasme şi imaginar degradat. Devine tot mai mult o etichetă, devine tot mai ireală. Myth-makerii din politică sau din industria divertismentului stimulează încă, prin şocuri emoţionale, un corp social tot mai inert, o populaţie hipnotizată de tubul catodic." - Cristi

"I predict that the profession known as “author” will be retired to history in my lifetime, like blacksmith and cowboy. In the future, everyone will be a writer, and some will be better and more prolific than others. But no one will pay to read what anyone else creates. People might someday write entire books - and good ones - for the benefit of their own publicity, such as to promote themselves as consultants, lecturers, or the like. But no one born today is the next multi-best-selling author. That job won’t exist." - Cristi

"When viewed as a rom-com, Sex and the City 2 is terrible and crappy and a horrific inversion of everything the show once was. But when viewed as a science fiction film, SATC2 is subversive, stylish and chilling. Like The Island from Lost, we may never know The City's true identity — Is it a VR computer program? A malevolent interdimensional god? Satan?" - LOL - Cristi

"The big loser this week, though, was Microsoft. They’re simply not even part of the game. RIM looms large, as BlackBerrys continue to reign as the best-selling smartphones in the U.S. But Microsoft? They’ve got nothing. No interesting devices, weak sales, and a shrinking user base. Microsoft’s irrelevance is taken for granted." - Cristi

I'm impressed Gruber makes it that far into the article before starting to bash Android and fawn over Apple. Surprised that he'd say something so obviously untrue as "there's no way to back up your android", though. Then again, I stopped taking this guy seriously a long time ago. - Mr. Gunn
