Hipster Albino Santa Christ to save Palm’s Christmas

The only thing that really upsets me about this campaign is that I was pretty sure Hipster Albino Santa Christ was my schtick. Guess I’m buying a Centro now.

The mistletoe is made of oxycontin [Palm.com]

   Oh no! Joel, the word doppelganger was meant to describe two people!

   Trippelganger isn’t even a word!

   You know what ruined Santa for me? When I found out that there WAS NO SANTA. (sorry kids)

   Now, #5, you should be aware that the icon we generally recognize as Santa, at least the American one, was pretty much created by Coca-Cola back in the 30′s. Dig it: http://www.thecoca-colacompany.com/heritage/cokelore_santa.html

   But I certainly would be surprised if Palm’s ‘remixed’ Santa will have the same lasting quality. They’ll be lucky if people even remember it until Christmas.

   lol ‘cokelore’

   Also I 3rd this looks like a hobo having a stroke.

   Anybody want to spring for some giant Palm signs? Going cheap…

   That looks far more like a twitching emancipated crackhead than a jesuslike santa figure grooving out…

   I have a Centro already, and now I feel slightly sick.

   What a fooking douche.

   I really wish Palm would get their act together. I like the palm OS platform for simple apps, but I’m slightly sickened about the longstanding touch calibration issue.

    John I hope you’re reading this, got nowhere else to post it:

    Since yesterday, my RSS feed isn’t updating (last post whas Vista Product (RED))

    The feed is still there, it simply doesn’t update with newer posts…

    Soooooooo creepy. This has ruined Santa for me.

    I have a feeling that a starving and crippled Hipster Tiny Tim is probably a more appropraite mascot for Palm these days…
