John Mayer reports bug, bugs the shit outta me.
I’ll admit, I post some pretty ridiculous things here every so often but never of the magnitude of John Mayer. His recent post about how he reported a bug to Apple is pretty ridiculous, complete with screenshots and everything. The body of that bug report?
Hi guys.
John Mayer here.
So I was plugging in my iPod because I want to put some new music to go work out to. Nothing’s worse than running to stale music in your iPod, am I right? I mean, I love ‘Bittersweet Symphony’ as much as the next guy, but let’s face it, after a while it stops being a ‘power song’. Anyhoo, I plug the iPod in and i get the spinning wheel. For a while. I wasn’t even being impatient or anything. I was kind of thinking that maybe the iPod was conducting some private business with my laptop that I didn’t need to know about but that would only be a minute. Like how I downloaded “In Rainbows” by Radiohead, listened to it for like, 2 weeks nonstop and then haven’t played it since. I don’t know. Maybe you guys are collecting that sort of data.
Anyway, things got all haywire after that, and I had to force quit. And that’s when I got the message and decided that instead of letting it go I would send a report. I’m not mad or anything, I just thought you’d want to know the specifics of the situation so you can better track the problem. I can give you more information if you need it.
Thanks, you guys.
Sincerely,
John Mayer
Now, what it says in the dialogue window that accompanies a bug report is “Please describe any steps needed to trigger the problem:”. Seems simple enough right? I mean, all John needed to do was write “I was just sitting here fading into obscurity and realizing that while I may be trying to find the middle ground between the phrases “million units” and “artistic integrity”, that road forked long before I even got on it. So regarding this bug, it’s probably just me since everything I touch seems to turn to shit. Please disregard.”
