BREAKING NEWS, Apple fans! The reign of terror is over. No longer will you be forced to open your shiny new iPad box and confront gasp an empty space where those coveted Apple logo stickers once gleamed. Yes, dear readers, the stickers are dead. Long live… emptiness?
ACT 1: The Fall of an Empire
Apparently, Apple has been seized by a sudden bout of eco-consciousness. Those pesky stickers, once a badge of honor plastered on laptops and car windows, are now deemed an environmental menace. Picture this: tiny turtles choking on miniature apples, lost whales navigating by holographic fruit… it’s enough to make a grown tech-lover weep.
ACT 2: Revolt and Reconciliation
But fear not! 9to5Mac reports that Apple, in an act of unparalleled generosity, will let you request stickers from their stores. It’s like a scavenger hunt, but instead of treasure, you get… a slightly sticky logo. Those not blessed with an Apple Store nearby will have to resort to desperate measures – proof of purchase in hand, groveling at the feet of Apple Geniuses to bestow the precious adhesives.
ACT 3: The Era of Sticker Scarcity
Mark my words, this is how it begins. Soon, those pristine Apple stickers will become collector’s items, traded on the black market for exorbitant sums. Expect to see them framed in museums, alongside ancient relics like charging bricks and, dare I say, headphone jacks.
Weep for the fallen stickers, friends. Weep, and then laugh a little, because sometimes the absurdity of tech trends is the best entertainment there is.
