VAIO Chick Joins PC, Mac Dudes

The Silly Girl points us to some fun Sony is having in a newish VAIO laptop campiagn. Calling the line “the non-pc pc,” Sony has made a threesome of the PC Guy/Mac Guy Apple ads and added an “I’m a VAIO” hipster chick to the equation. As engadget correctly ponders, the message is a bit confusing since, after all, the VAIO is, in fact, a PC whether it wants to be or not. Details aside, a little flash ad lets you choose who you want to “play with.” Choose the girl, she giggles. Choose the Mac, he says “hey.” Choose the PC and, well, he farts. Go figure.

My adult son called last Sunday and talked for forty minutes about his promotion and his new house and his kids and then said “anyway how are you dad” with ninety seconds left in the call — and I said “I’m good” because what else do you say when you realize you’ve become the commercial break in your own child’s life

I’m 66 and I’ve been disciplined about everything my entire life – diet, exercise, savings, career – and last Tuesday I realized I’ve never once done something purely because it brought me joy without immediately calculating whether it was also productive or healthy or advancing some goal

I’m 73 and I can tell you that the loneliest thing about getting older isn’t the empty house — it’s watching your children build traditions that don’t include you and pretending you’re happy for them because the alternative is becoming the mother who made it about herself
