Have you actually seen that site? "http://www.cultofmac.com | Breaking news for Apple Fans" That's what it says right there, on the header. There is actually a picture of the back of some guy's head with an Apple logo shaved into the back of it for the site's logo for the love of god. These people are the very definition of "cockheads". I really don't think you're going to get any sense out of them whatsoever, have you actually tried reading some of their articles? They have absolutely no relation to reality whatsoever. They're even trying to put a positive spin on the Apple Maps fiasco... So let me be clear here: I'm not insulting them because they don't think the same way I do. I'm insulting them because they don't think at all, and are rabid, unapologetic, frothing at the mouth Apple fanboys and even seem quite happy to admit it. So yeah, I stand by "cockheads". And will add "bunch of childish sycophantic arseholes" too, just for good measure. Now, you're disagreeing with me: this may surprise you, but that doesn't worry me at all and I have no intention or desire to start randomly insulting you! You also are apparently surprised that I am on this list because I'm "opinionated", but I don't see how one follows from the other to be honest. Quite a lot of people on this list seem to have pretty strong opinions as well, I'm certainly not the only one who knows my own mind. But this is the great thing: this is a mailing list, so if you really want to, you can either unsubscribe (a bit radical) or much easier, just setup a rule in your mail client to delete or hide emails from me: simple!
