Don’t Buy: iClaudius
Okay, Apple. We get it. You are our Lord and Savior. You have single-handedly converted the whole international population from IRL to URL. We’ll all drop $400 every time we get a sad face icon in order to keep feeding the addiction. Well, almost all of us.
In an attempt to win over the last percentage of old-timey folks who just don’t want iPods, Apple plans to release the iClaudius, an iPod exclusively built to stream the popular 1970’s BBC television series I, Claudius.
To avoid as much confusion as possible for its target consumer, the device holds a protection that prevents any additional audio or video files to be uploaded, at all. The updated soundtrack for the series, however, is the one CD available on iTunes via these iClaudii. Most of the songs are off Filter’s single, Where Do We Go From Here.
Lyrics:
Where do we go from here /
You know I’m not the only one /
Where do we go from here /
You know I’m not your only son /
Where do we go from here /
Stop dreaming ’bout the shiney gun /
Where do we go from here /
No, I’m not the only one
I mean, I like classics turning up in pop culture as much as the next guy, but sin-seriously dudes…
Apple anticipates answering the demand for a device exclusive to a yet-to-be-filmed series on Nero, aka The Beast!!

Hilarious! I watched the whole series in high school. In Latin class to learn about the history of the Roman empire. However the teacher would fast forward all the sex/hardcore porn scenes. And it was on VHS, so the screen would go blue so you wouldn’t even see a nipple!
How’s it goin’. Hi. I think that this is a very intelligent and useful post because it draws attention to a weird neo-Roman electronic machine. It’s not as frightening, however, as the e-lagabalus, a recording device that turns all of the things that it records into stagings of strange scenes from the harrowing rule of Elagabalus, a.k.a. Heliogabalus, one of the most notorious, cruel, and incompetent emperors from the infamous dynasty of the Severi. Verily, a dickhole who does not deserve to have an electronic machine.
