Mad TV iPad Parody (2006)

I don’t know if it’s my growing cynicism from continued exposure to Silicon Valley, or if I’m just gadgeted out, but I wasn’t at all excited waking up this morning to hear what Apple was releasing at their event today. When I caught up with the rest of the Internet and read “iPad,” I paused for a moment, then asked someone, “Am I the only one who hears that and thinks of Maxi Pads?”

The response I received came in the form of a Madtv clip that (from what I can tell) dates back to 2006:

Well.

(When I pitched this post to Scott, he emailed me back with a tweet from Merci showing I wasn’t alone in my initial impressions.)
