    I was recently working an event that I designed the environment for, and I was on-site supporting the event team and taking photos for our records. Like most event teams at this firm, they consist of primarily overweight older women.

    To the point, almost every single one of these overweight women was wearing a Fitbit, and would not ever shut the fuck up about it. Yeah, I get it, you walked today, a lot of steps, almost like a normal person.

    Until this experience of spending every waking moment and meal hearing about their Fitbits while they shoveled fettuccine alfredo into their faces, I had no idea that health-related wearables were actually taking off. But this changed things, and I have no doubt that Apple can get in on this shit and make a fuckload of money. These same women will buy whatever Apple makes because they also have iPhones and shit like that.
