I'm not sure if it's because stupid people like Apple products or if Apple products make people stupid. It's chapped my ass for years for years but I've never called out anyone on their incredible ignorance. However, when I read the same ass-chapping ignorant perception on Apple Insider written by an author, whom one must assume is indeed an insider of sorts, I knew I had to speak out. If I can only make the iDiots a little less stupid, it will be wort the time and effort.

Steve Jobs' signature upper-body garment is NOT a  turtleneck! He's never worn one in any appearance I've ever known of and I challenge you to find an image on the Internet (or anywhere else) in which he's wearing one.

Jobs wears a MOCK  turtleneck; there's a big difference.

Turtleneck: a high, close-fitting collar, turned back on itself and covering all or most of the neck
Mock turtleneck: a knit pullover finished at the neckline with a short, fitted knit band that does not fold over.

For those of you that can't process any word that isn't preceded by a lower case "i", maybe some pictures will help you understand the difference...

If you can't see the difference in the images, well, maybe  you should just pluck out your eyes and be done with them 'cause they're totally useless and serve you no purpose

Why, in the name of your precious Lord and Savior Steve, don't you sheeple get it? Why is it so hard? Are you really that stupid?

To further clarify that none of you know jack, here are some random images of he without whom you couldn't survive...

The last one might trip you up as the garment is neither a mock nor actual turtleneck; it's a hybrid crew neck with a subtle overlapping "V" stitched ribbed collar.

I realize that everyone on the Net didn't spend ten years in the apparel industry as I did but I knew the difference between a mock and a turtleneck by the time I entered first grade so there's no legitimate excuse for the mass ignorance echoing through every article about  Steve Jobs I've ever read.

Unless the rumors about Steve Jobs draining your cerebral energy through the keys on your Macs and the click-wheel on your iPods are true.

For Christ's sake people, if you're gonna write, get it right. Is that too much to ask?
