Steve Jobs Eulogy
Steve Job the man, the innovator, and the creator. Steve Job’s was a man who was misunderstood by many and didn’t care how he was portrayed. He was a man of insane believes, yet not always stood by them, but in some way believed in them. For much of his life he was a vegan. He would walk around with a rancid smell, because he thought his diet would dispel any bad smelling odors from his body.
The man was a perfectionist, which could have been considered both a positive and negative attribute. As even his factories would have to not only been spotless, he would even design the factories and pay attention to aspects that would barely if at all be visible. Yet coincidentally his home was the least bit of perfection. His palatial mansion in the exclusive neighborhood of Woodside, California, was mostly unfurnished. With only a few fixtures and a minuscule number of furniture.
His innovations were outstanding to put it lightly. Starting not only the MP3, music player generation but the tablet generation. His products according to some are the best in the world. While I feel this is due to the ecosystem/cult, which is Apple Computers. His iPhone line may have evolved the cell phone market into the new smartphone age. But his is in no regards the best device available. Regardless his ability to know not only what people wanted, but what people didn’t even know they wanted, helped make Apple into the juggernaut we are all accustomed to today.
Now Steve Job’s was by no means the best CEO or manager that many people labeled him as. He would not only yell excessively at his subordinates, it would take an army for him to realize that he was in fact wrong. He would storm out of meetings constantly. He would never be able to take orders. He had what people called a reality distortion field where not only would he convince himself he was correct, but even other people into his way of thinking. It is possible to say that he is the worst CEO to ever walk the face of the earth. But, because his company did well he was well received. The best CIO-Chief Innovation Officer ever, maybe, but best CEO, I am highly suspect.
Steve Jobs was not only a terrible manager, but an atrocious person. He had a bastard child that he had rarely seen until she was 14; this is ironic as Steve was adopted. His list of nefarious activities could be as long as Santa’s naughty list. A psychologist would have had a field day counseling Steve Jobs. He was not charitable or hospitable. He was neither studious nor wholesome. He was put on a pedestal because of his aura, and image of a hippie billionaire, who didn’t care what people thought.
Steve Job’s has been given comparisons to Leonardo Da Vinci and Thomas Edison. Both of those comparisons are grossly exaggerated. The man made luxury items, he doesn’t deserve nearly the amount of accolades he receives.
Don’t get me wrong I can respect what the man did for not only technology, but the world. But, please that doesn’t grant a man immunity from criticism.

Mila Kunis looks like Elisha Cuthbert and Sarah Hyland/ Kuntang
If you take the upper portion of Sarah Hyland's face and her skin complextion and combine it with the bottom half of Elisha Cuthbert's face the end result is Mila Kunis. And Mila Kunis's new nickname is Kuntang, because of her famous Black Swan Girl on Girl scene with Nathalie Portman. It is slightly a rip off of Cloontang from TV's American Dad.
