Title: Muslims Offended by Apple Store Post by: BTs_FahQ2 on October 13, 2006, 09:46:20 pm Quote Apple Store is offensive to some Muslims. Why? Apparently the glass cube shape of the Apple Store entrance resembles the Ka’ba in Mecca. The report, which was translated by The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), also finds problems in people referring to the glass cube as the “Apple Mecca,” the store being open 24 hours a day like the Ka’ba, and because “alcoholic beverages” are served inside at a bar. Obviously the offended Muslims in question have never actually been to the 5th Ave Apple Store. The only bar in the Apple Store is the Genius Bar and although the advice of a Genius Bar employee may be intoxicating, it isn’t alcoholic. lol. awesome. just awesome. I wonder if some muslims are also offended by other cube like entities like ice cubes, UPS or FEDEX deliveries in insulting square cardboard, the block heads from gumby, the old g4 cube, rubik's cube or maybe even jack in the box...well the restaurants are not exactly cubes, but they could be referring to the muslim holy place as being run by a clown with a 24 hour drive through (omg, 24 hours!). I will await for my local Mullah to declare a jihad on geometry and attack accordingly. oh, here is an image of both for reference: (http://static.flickr.com/120/267722834_bf1f4f2c1b.jpg?v=0) Title: Re: Muslims Offended by Apple Store Post by: Monoman on October 13, 2006, 09:53:41 pm Hahahaha, classic. ::applause::

Title: Re: Muslims Offended by Apple Store Post by: Ein on October 14, 2006, 09:18:56 pm Great...here come the attacks on 5th avenue. Couldn't they have picked a spot I don't work next to? Go attack after those apple stores in Canada or something. Those shifty Canadians have been copyong the Ka'ba for years. Look at the 3 squares on their flag... 2 red and one white... They even put a maple leaf in one of them. That shit is sacreligeous if I've ever seen it.
JIHAD!!!! Title: Re: Muslims Offended by Apple Store Post by: *DAMN Hazard on October 15, 2006, 08:34:51 pm Muslims are mad sensitive or they just pretend to be so they can blow shit up
