found an Apple with a usb cord in the bathroom

[Contemplation]

One time I went to a public restroom and saw a apple with a usb cable sticking out of it. The apple was covered in some kind of white fluid it; it could’ve been lotion or mayonnaise judging by how it looked. Also, this thing was sitting in the trash can. Unfortunately, I didn’t take any pictures of it.

So, why would someone do something like that to an apple?

Are you talking about an Apple-branded laptop or device? Or an actual fruit?

[cochrane]

What makes you think it was lotion or mayonnaise? Could have been something else.

In this case, I think it was just to make anyone who saw it ask exactly the question you did.

It makes a twisted sort of sense, plugging it into an apple instead of an Apple. And then covering it in junk so people wouldn’t reach in and remove the cable and ruin the “art.”

Please tell me it was a Macintosh.

It was horseradish.

No, it was a fruit. An apple, not Apple.

Yeah. I know a lot of people who do that.

Actually, it probably was just what you should expect to see in a trash can: a bunch of random trash.

Clearly, it was apple sauce.

Either to charge it, or to sync it to a data source. Duh.

So that’s where I left my electric mayo apple!
mmm

[Darren_Garrison]

That’s the second weirdest charging device that I’ve ever heard of.

Yes, a USB cord thrown away just happened to magically get plugged into an apple that was also thrown away.

I didn’t say there were a lot of people who did it. But I do know people who just like to put weird things out there. Sorry you don’t. They’re generally fun to be around, due to their sense of humor.

Any banana with a condom on it?

What I meant is that probably it only looked that way, which is the most likely explanation. It’s highly unlikely that someone would go to the trouble of making such a statement–moreover putting a substance on it so that it not be disturbed–and then place it in a trash can, where very quickly it will be covered by the next trash to come along.

If someone had done that, however, it would have been a one-dimensional, simple-minded statement, not really worthy of so much effort.
