Hey kid, wan't some fucking wisdom?

BOZEMAN, MT. -- No I didn’t write it, but the quote at the end of this entry is bad ass shit. Sad fact… do a google search for it. You’ll find dozens of stupid fucks who attribute it to an Apple Computer commercial. There is something a bit amiss about a guy (me) thinking about Kerouac, and at least *trying* to be a good person .. but simultaneously wishing that I had the heads of every FUCKTARD that thinks that a FUCKING AD AGENCY wrote this goddamn quote, which ought to be one of the keystones to every single motherfucking facet of existence… wait, ok, so I want their heads, lined up on a banquet table, and a fucking endless supply of ice picks to stab into their eyes.

This is NOT by an Apple Computer ad.

These are the words of Jack Kerouac.

And motherfucker, they’re wiser than anything you’ve ever thought.

"Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them; disagree with them; glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."

hey man, before you go off on a condescending rant like that, you might want to check your sources. Although similar ideas were expressed in Kerouac's On the Road, what you have quoted IS an Apple ad written by Apple. I think the quote you were attempting to recall was:

“The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!”


lovely day for a slice of humble pie?

I don't think you're right on this one, anonymous commenter...

but... I'll certainly be eating MAJOR shit if you are.

Feel free to post backup to your claim. I'll post it, whether it makes me look like a fucking moron or not.
