By now, hopefully most of you have settled into your post Spring Forward body rhythms and perhaps are on to Apple's own Spring Forward announcements including a wearable that costs $10,000. ICYMI, that's the price for one Gold Apple Watch edition. There's also a version that costs $17,000 and that amount of moolah could buy you many, many, many items like say 833 pizzas wrapped in 30 feet of bacon. Of course, CollegeHumor couldn't resist the chance to join in on the fun and say exactly what it means when you buy a $10,000 piece of jewelry to slap around your wrist, even if it's smartwatch and gold-colored.
To be fair, this price is only for the 18-karat gold model, the Apple Watch edition, but there are other options such as the Apple Watch Sport for $350 and the standard Apple Watch for $550.
We should be thanking Apple for launching the $10,000 "apple watch" as the new gold standard in douchebag detection.
