Nice Goggles, Dork!
The new Apple goggles are license to take your lunch money
I saw today's product announcement from Apple and thought one thing: Nice goggles, Dork! As an investor I tend to keep up on the latest market trends, even those I think are stupid. I am a curmudgeon. I have been a curmudgeon from an early age. But, I like to make money on products or services I don't use. See:

I used to think smart phones were dorky but goggles take the cake
I've never owned a smart phone. In fact, I may be allergic to them while admitting to their utility. Mrs. Smidlap owns one and it has been handy for finding friends when visiting a different city or for driving directions. You can also make a phone call on them, as it turns out. But with people glued to their phones like herpes I consider phone addiction much like a disease. When I a person walking down the sidewalk staring dully at a phone something like this image pops into my mind:
Nice phone, Dork!
I have never owned Apple Stock, but I own plenty of tech dork businesses. Unity Software graphics stock went ape-shit crazy when Apple announced it would be used in their new Dork Goggles. All I can really hope is for all the buyers of these goggles to receive a round of wedgies every time they don their $3500 gear. When the wedgies are no longer sufficient they will need to be relieved of their lunch money immediately! Also, don't these new goggles eerily remind you of Cliff from the dork squad in the movie Sixteen Candles?
p.s. High waisted jeans on women are also dorky!
p.p.s. Walking around staring dulling at a phone or sporting $3500 Apple Goggles doesn't necessarily make you a dork. It’s only me. I am convinced you are a dork.
