    The electric chair added some super-special-awesome irony, but I would've liked to see how they did lethal injection.
    And why was the lamp the only non-alphanumeric object? #pixar

    @Mischif: Oh wow, that brings in a whole new level to this story. A desk lamp alone in a world of letters, numbers, and symbols. A life most likely defined by persecution - or at best, a constant state of gross misunderstanding.

    Indeed, this video raises too many questions! What is entirely clear, however, is that we simply cannot lay judgment on this hapless lamp without a proper context; those who know his story now have the moral obligation to tell it. #pixar

    By the way, Disney + Apple did not equal Pixar. Pixar was a stand-alone and successful company prior to being bought (merging?) with Disney and other than Jobs, had nothing to do with Apple.

    I fscking hate Apple stores. If I need some kind of computer thing, I'm not looking to get dressed up in poseur hip clothing so I can go listen to a club beat thumping while I hunt down a kid dressed in black wearing a phone around his neck just so he can go ask some other moron wanna-be that calls himself a "genius" because he knows how to ship something to San Jose for repair -- and all so I can pay too much for something and get out.

    ok just checked article, its 1 million a store, which seems reasonable

    @mr_bigglesworth: I have to say, I'm surprised at the $1m per store figure. I would have guessed $300,000 or $400,000 for reworking each store, but hey! Last time I checked I don't run any retail stores, so what do I know?

    Though I can say that all the Disney stores I've been into were chaos in retail format.

    Unless the Disney Stores start making available DVDs or Blu-Rays of the classic Disney cartoons, they're still not getting my business.

    Yeah, I know there's a few out there already, but the bargain-basement way they treat and package those things is an embarrassment.

    And no, neither "Disney Princesses" or "The Lion King" count. Disney was better before they started thinking everything needed a f***ing SONG in it.

    Awesome. Its kinda ironic too that I saw this article while watching Home Improvement (Main star is Tim Allen, voice of Buzz Lightyear). Hopefully someone puts that parade on youtube so we can see it.

    Maybe this can be the main theme for Toy Story 5? Where they go to space and the world is Wall-E themed again, but maybe people thinner...

    While this is COOL, I think a better lesson to kids would be to put Buzz on the outside of a submersible checking on on Megatron in the Laurentian Abyss, and seeing what he looks like after that.

    @GitEmSteveDave_HasANewiPodTouch: A bit hard to do that considering Megatron isn't down there anymore storywise. Plus, Buzz would be crushed by the pressure at those depths.

    Buzz was up there as part of a program by NASA and Disney to encourage students to study science, technology and maths.

    @anexanhume: When your job is to explore and make places and things that either don't have names yet, or have names too complex to bother explaining to the common man, who the heck cares about proper grammar?

    Also, most dudes at NASA knew one (or several) obnoxious liberal arts majors in undergrad school that ticked them off. This is their nerdy vengeance.

    @OCEntertainment: Well, it was a SNL commercial parody, from 1989... it was a toy called "Big Red" from Bleego. Basically it was a bearded viking that spun around soaking everything in a 20' radius with fake blood that squirted from the viking helmet horns. You can do a Hulu search for it probably, I just can't stand trying to navigate that awful parody of a media site.
