## Transcript

Strap in for the most insanely important, mind- blowing tech news of the week. I'm Doug [ UNKNOWN ] [ MUSIC ]. An 83 year old woman is suing Apple for $ 1 million after she walked into the glass facade of an Apple store and broke her nose. [ UNKNOWN ] But it actually looked worse than I thought it would. Fast Fat, this happened in Manhasset, Long Island. Fast Fat. The woman is suing for 35, 000 dollars for whatever happened to her nose and the rest for intangibles like pain and suffering and what not. Fast Fat. Apple has at least One million dollars. And it's disposable. You want another pass back?

I have never been to Long Island. It's probably better because it looks dangerous there. See? Two pieces of free advice for Apple. Number one, when it starts to get nice out, like all Americans, take out the glass and put in screens. Make all your glass door screens. Its hillarious when someone walks into screens. And number two pay up, give this woman a million dollars. The full amount. What is the worst that could possibly happen? We'll be right back. Hi I'm Douglas B. Douglas, personal injury lawyer for the law firm of Douglas, Douglas and Douglas. Have you been injured in an apple related mishap?

Have you hurt yourself while in one of their stores? Did you walk into a pane of glass? Did you hurt your back while bending over to plug in your iPhone? Have you been hurt while thinking about Apple? Do you hate Apple and that makes you angry and you punch a wall and hurt your hand? If so, get the money you deserve. Don't let Apple walk all over you. I'm Douglas B. Douglas of Douglas, Douglas & Douglas. Give me a call and we'll sue Apple to the core. [ MUSIC ] A Pennsylvania man was caught trying to steal Paul Allen's identity. Do you know who Paul Allen is? He is the co- founder of Microsoft.

He is a billionaire. Do you know how this man got caught? Among other things, he was captured on surveillance camera trying to buy video games from a video game store and making purchases at the dollar store or as I like to call it dreaming big. And we know Paul Allen doesn't shop at the dollar store. That's how he was tipped off probably. A pizza joint in Dubai has developed a Bluetooth enabled refrigerator magnet that with a press of a button orders your Favorite pizza. One button on your fridge, press it and pizza's on its way. Why is this only in Dubai? This is so insanely simp, you know what the, I mean what are we gonna, what's left to report on?

That's, that's technology has reached its pinnacle. He, one button, and pizza. It's like, you're, wait, next iPhone. Then the iPad, maybe Facebook changes something and everyone gets mad, but other than that we're pretty much done. Really? Twitter toilet paper? Okay. Back to work. [ MUSIC ] The service is called [ INAUDIBLE ]. We can't even show the picture. I don't know how you're gonna get there, but it's called [ INAUDIBLE ]. I can't even. And for $ 35, they'll sell you four rolls of toilet paper adorned with your twitter feed, or the twitter feed of your friends, your favorite tweets. Any of that kind of stuff.

Four rolls for $ 35, which sounds expensive, but, but that may be the the pinnacle of technology right there. I'm Doug, I'm ma check out those insanely, important mind blowing tech news stories and more on Tech Land. [ MUSIC ] Can I say [ INAUDIBLE ]? Can we say [ INAUDIBLE ]? Is this getting bleep [ SOUND ] [ SOUND ]. I think, I don't think it's, no you can, they say it on like, Nickelodeon on, yeah. Like, they, they say it on Nickelodeon now. Like, I saw it on, the Suite Life of Zach and Carly, iCarly. Zach and Cody. They say [ SOUND ].
