Feb 27 2009Rad To The Power Of Sick $2.5 Million iPhone

kings button.jpg

That's right folks, a ridiculously stupid $2.5 million iPhone complete with 18-carat gold, 160 small diamonds, and topped off with a 6.6-carat behemoth as the home button. The piece is called the 'King's Button' and is available now if you want it. But, if you're looking for something a little cheaper, forget the King's Button, I've got your Peasant's Joystick right here -- $2.75.

4th?

Schweeeet!!!

Me wants 0Ne!

and daisy says...

If I hadn't lost half my savings in the last 4 months, i'd totally buy this. That said, anyone seen an iPhone modded with food? Bacon-encrusted, perhaps? Please...I'm hungry.

This kind of reminds me of my old Nokia phone from 2001. I bought it off of QVC channel, it was actually endorsed by Joan Rivers. It was bedazzled like hell. I'm talking about rhinestones and all sorts of SPARKLY shit.
And to me it just kind of looks the same... Rhinestones and diamonds sparkles somewhat the same way.

yo man, this is totally rad to the power of beast, it beats sick by at least 10 gnarly endos!!!

It looks a bit girly I must say. I've had a couple of phones customised by this guy. He's gone all out on this one. Peter Aloisson's his name.

Ten first (aka 11th)

EPIC FAIL. I don't care if the phone is made of Jesus's eye crust. This is f.u.c.king stupid.

RAD TO THE POWER OF SICK
should never be crossed out- shame on you!

@12- i have a joystick made of jesus' penis, intrested?

@13- you are absolutely right! its a sin tocross out such holy words!

The iphone is gold...

Like my penis

Lesse how many relevant penis jokes we can create in this thread, GO!

Damn i got to buy that!! i have only a stupid n95 with no diamonds no gold and no shit :( how can i live withot a 2.5 million dollar iphone??????
when i'll buy it i'll show it to all my friends :D i hope no one gonna steal it.. or whathever.. i can buy a new one for 3.5 million $ and useless as a 300 $ iphone :D!!!

Some will pay $2.75 just to touch the Peasant's Joystick. I'm charging $2.50 a touch for mine.

keep the phone, I'll take the rock. and the joystick.

@16 Goldmember? are you back to capture austin powers' dad?

I got three of theses. Nice phones

what's the point? it probably needs a case so the back doesn't get scratched up like mine. i don't like mods.., but if this was official release from apple... i might want it.

iPhones are for Douches and Blinged out iPhones can only be desired in the United Arab Emirates; capital of Doucebags.

@14
Blasphemyyyyyy!
Blasphemyyyyyy!
Blasphemyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!
You do not put the Lord's name in vain!!! Maybe HE's not your god, but pleeeeeaaassssseee!!! Leave Him out of this crap. Say what you want, but that thing you just said is very offensive to devout Christians. Do you realize that?
You think it's a joke now, dude? Huh? Yo, that was not cool! Damn, I cannot believe someone would say that kind of shit. That joke was disgusting, blasphemous, grotesque, and incredibly inappropriate. I hope you're thinking about what you've just done. And learn to respect other people's religion.

If people joke around like this here in geekologie, I pray to god you don't get struck by lightning. What kind of people come to this site by the way?

@25

Troll? I hope please God you aren't serious about that? Lol... Devout Christians are the reason that penises are in more demand than 2.5 million dollar I phones.

or something. Lighten up.

FAKE!!!!

This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadows are all wrong.

This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max wins the lottery and gets 10 million dollars. He spends it on a new house, a store, and bills. He thden buys a 2.5 million ollar iPhone and realizes that he went past his budget. He panics and hacks the banks computer. He presents the bank with a letter in the mail that tells him that he went past his budget. The bank then apologizes, and he gets off without any punishment.

Daisy, you're an idiot.

$2.5 million? Pssh. That's like pocket change.

@25: I don't beleive in you. or religion itself, for that matter...
@27: I was scared you weren't gonna show up...

OMG OMG OMG

YES YES YES

WAITING FOR A LONG TIME

I AM OFFICIALLY

thirty and *FIRST*!

Give me congrats

I've never understood these things, i used to have a huge dog turd in my house, it was worth nothing and friends* that came round poured scorn at the idea of keeping a dog turd in my house. However when i sprinkled 2.5 million dollars worth of diamonds on said turd, it's value rocket in price and people came from all around to gawp at the light reflect and refract through my glistening gloopy dog shit. The moral of the story is Diamonds make things more valuable.

*Mental health professionals.

Well. That's wonderful !!! Wealthy relatio nship is very fashionable now, ... ..many of milliona ires and celebri ties or admirers have found their love on the famous worldwide w ealthy dat ing si te ****C e l e b m i n g l e. C 0 M*****Come and end the dam lonely life.!!

I was kinda thinking the same thing as #32, except from the Dave Chappelle skit, it might be shit with diamonds on it, but it's still shit.

And fcuk off #25, joking or otherwise.

@25- i wont dont give a shit if i get struck by lightning because it'll have been a natural phenominom, i dont beliieve in any god. go take your stupid church crap where it belongs, and btw, dont pray for my safety, im praying for your mental health... oh wait, im not praying, cuz i dont believe in god... so i guess just have fun in your little fun world where people get hit everytime they say jesus...

@26, 34, 35
Y'all a bunch of anti-Christians. This is one thing I notice about atheists... of all the religions they wanna hate, they happened to hate mostly on Christians. I thought the Protestant Church was bad enough!
You think you're cool now because you don't have a God?
That's funny because last time I checked there were only 1.8% of you in this world. You can't even organize a protest because of your population size.
I'm not saying y'all are bad people, sometimes some of you talk a lot of shit. And I'm not saying you should restrain from making Jesus jokes, I'm must saying maybe you should think about whether it's offensive on not to other people. Specially in public, be careful you don't get beat up.

"Rad To The Power Of Sick" is the new PEW PEW!?

@36. Don't forget to look in the mirror before pointing fingers.

When you point a finger at someone, your'e pointing back at yourself with three.

I don't appreciate racists comments on this site, and I usually let it go and don't comment on it, but while you're standing on your soapbox, maybe you should pick a better screen name than sterotyping black people and the color purple. That doesnt sound very christian.

Also, may athiests don't protest because they don't have anything to protest. Last I checked my math 1.8% of a billion people is still enough people to rally. I don't think one has to do with the other.

@36- i agree with 38 but also, you suck to the power of sick, and also, i only pick on christians, i have nothing agaisnt jews (being born one and slowly seperating) because ive never in my life heard a jew say anything racist or against gays by the torah, as far as i know, us jews are free to have our own beliefs politically wise. You christians (not all!!! dont quote me without knowing i dont steryotype everyone!) are told by the bible that all people are made equal and yet also beleive that no man shall sleep with another man... contradicted!!! thats what i have a problem with, its that you cant see that the bible shouldnt be taken literally to the full extent because its full of contradictions and bs telling you to hate. Also "You think you're cool now because you don't have a God?"... how do i respond to something so stupid... oh yeah, "yo, i am cool to the power of rad multiplied by sick because of my position on whether or not there is a god" no, I dont think im any better then anyone else, i do think that my ideas are fully thought out based on my own thoughts and not dictated by an ancient book, but no, i dont think im better in all apects, i am fighting right? am i any better then you? no, im equal (if not better for my open beliefs for freedom of anyone *gay rights reference*)

What is a million iPhone and why does it cost only 2.5 dollars?

@39
You don't have to remind me the flaws of my religion and the Bible. I, myself, is aware of that. Dude, some christian communities have begun accepting gay people. Read the news for once before saying that shit.
Really, you have nothing against the Jews? I know, Torah has nothing to do about the shit Jewish people are doing. Tell me you aren't the reason why the Middle East is up against your asses. And now you're telling me that Jews "are free to have our own beliefs politically wise". That's bullshit. You stole their land from them.
You're an atheist but why are you calling yourself a Jew?
Listen, I did not come here to argue. All I wanted to employ was a little respect for other religions. If you can't handle that, that's fine. Say what you want. But don't come saying that Christians are stupid

this phone is pointless

@41: "Jewish" is both a race and a religion, you can be one without being the other. Go talk to your imaginary friend and stop trolling you asshat.

Faith = ignorance. Too many wars have been started in the name of something that doesn't exist and the world is a shitty place because of religion and "God"...biggest fcuking scam ever perpetrated on mankind.

Fcuk God, Fcuk Jesus, and his dick, Fcuk Ala, Mohamed, fcuking Krishna or whatever bullshit is out there...

So, if it crashes....I guess you just exchange it at the Genius bar....NOT!!!!

@43- whats your problem with me? we both think god is a problem in society... i dont unerstand where the hostility comes in, and being jewish isnt a race, being african american or caucasian is a race. Being jewish is a religion just like islam and christianity.Sure there are communities of supporters that just kindof form but being jewish is the same thing, unless you are thinking of israel... which as much as i like having the jews there, we really should have punished Germany, what did the middle east do to deserve land theft?

@45: I never said I had a problem with you, my comments were directed at the troll. And yes Jewish is both...you're telling me that if "Sol Rosenberg" converted to Christianity, he'd cease being Jewish? Ever hear of a Christian-Jew?... that's what that is.

Let me clarify, Jewish as in from Israeli decent. Not the most accurate of terms, but it's still a race.

Kinda like being "Japanese" both a nationality and a race, you can be both or one or the other...

Who would actually buy this without the fear of being robbed.

@46-... lol, i have no clue why i was ranting to you! i guess i misread numbers... ok, well, i guess we just have different opinions on judaism in society

@43
Talk about a person with no morale. Your anger cannot solve anything. It does not impose superiority in an argument. "Rudeness is a fool's idea of strength." It's immature of you calling me those names and you're just making a fool out of yourself. Is this what atheism has done to you? What a shame. We don't need people like you in society. What "values" has driven you to live this long and so much hatred on religious people? Wow, man. I have never seen a person this low in my entire life. You're not making any sense whatsoever in your own side of the argument. I pretty sure you're aware of that.
If you paid attention in your history class, it is Religion that's what molded the world into what it is right. Without religion, we would be savages. So, you might wanna think about what you've said and tell me religion is still bullshit from your own RATIONAL way of thinking and as a representative of the 1.8% of atheists out there.

@45
"What did the Middle East do to deserve land theft?"
Exactly my point!
And you're the one calling Christians evil.
Christians have their own share of bullshit, and so as the Jews. And so did the Muslims. So you might wanna think about that before saying "Your religion is better than my religion," because if you don't your just like SpellingNAZI over here. Making an ass out of his self.

@43
I forgot to point out your error on the Jews.
Being Jewish is not a race, but rather being a part of a movement that supports Judaism. Like Tennist0 have said, Christians as to Christianity and Muslims as to Islam. Jews do not share one common ancestry. People of many different races have become Jewish people over the years.

Actually I'm agnostic, not atheist. I'm not ignorant enough to believe in something that I have no proof of. I believe that IF there is some omnipotent being out there creating stuff, than we as humans are too minuscule in the scheme of things to possibly comprehend it. And it's arrogant to personify something like that into little fables that pre-historic Republicans created to scare their kids into doing the "right" thing.

I have no problem when people use spirituality to add morality to their own lives, but the idea that your "god" is the one and only "true god" in a world as diverse as ours is, the fact that people have gone to and are STILL at war because of it is just insane, fcuking ludicrous.

52- that proves nothing but there are Jews that vary in belief, why does that support your statement that Jews are a race? It proves we have the equivalent of Protestant, etc but in Jew form. I wouldn't even consider christianity a race, even being it's the most popular religion and one of the closest to Judaism it's still not a race

51 - "pre-historic Republicans created to scare their kids into doing the "right" thing." Actually... you would be thinking Democrats, which is what most church goers were before abortion & gay rights became political issues...

I'm curious why everyone gets so angry at what other people believe? Who cares if your neighber wants to pray to a rock if that's what works for them? Who cares if someone doesn't have faith in a "higher power"? They are still human and doing the best they can. Irony, the people most angry are the ones claiming to be "right" or "correct" or calling others ignorant... If being your kind of enlightened makes you that damned angry, I'll stay ignorant.

@54- your dislutional, what have democrats pressured their kids into doing, the way i see it is that the church repubs bring their kids there where they get not brainwashed but are exposed to limited ideas, whereas democrats are for choice and are more open with their kids

also 54, i only pray to a flying spegetti monster, just kiding, but that is a topic i agree with you on, religious freedom guys, im pretty sure thats why america became such a huge hit

If this thing doesn't come with the IAmRich app preloaded, it's not a good deal.

People still believe in the bible? Oh man, that's funny.

55- Read some history... Republicans back in the day were more about capitalism and small government, the "religious" party was the Democrats for a long, long time. Untill the issues of abortion, gay rights, etc. forced the chruch goers to a more conservative party - the Republicans. If you are going to be silly again and call me "deslutional" (I can only infer you meant dillusional) - I would recommend reading. I would also recommend using some logic...
1) Churches tend to be socialist in nature, caring for the down trodden, the little guy - that's a democrat leaning
2) Churches tend to be anti- violence, anti-death penalty, etc. - democrats...

Duh-uh-uh-uh-uh. Did someone forget that there is a long history of evolution involved in USA's 2 party system...

@54: No, I meant Republicans. As in today's party, not somewhere in the evolution of the parties.

And you hit it on the head about ignorance, some people prefer to be ignorant, hence the saying "Ignorance is bliss." Once you start challenging someone's belief, they usually get defensive or put their fingers in their ears and start shouting "lalalalalalalala!"

Most people choose to live ignorantly by blindly following a faith because that was the society they were brought up in. I personally was brought up Episcopalian, but since have traveled the world, read a few books, and educated myself on a variety of issues, including cultural and religious, I have opened my eyes and realized how ignorant people can be, and most of the time willingly. I just refuse to be one of them.

So to answer your question, I have a low tolerance for ignorance.

60- Not everyone with faith got to it blindly. There are some who researched, read, travelled, came to it as their inevitable belief. I understand frustration at chosen ignorance - please realize, not everyone you dissagree with is ignorant.
The fact of the matter is, science has to prove or disprove the existence of God. Although Some studies on dark matter in the universe, as well as an abundance of spiral patterns throughout, suggest a "master plan" or blueprint, which leans towards god's existing. So the science has yet to prove either side with finality.
I agree that you can believe whatever the heck you want, or don't believe what you don't want, it makes no difference to me. I'm just pointing out that vehemently judging others who dissagree with you doesn't make them ignorant - it makes you a perfect candidate for the more judgemental sects of Christianity. *These comments are directed at all sides who got all kinds of huffy in here*

fSN - Still love ya cutie.
