The most insane keynote ever: Qualcomm at CES 2013

OMG WHAT IS HAPPENING

[Trippy_Santa]

I cannot imagine how pissed the real programmers and developers of these softwares are when these lame presentations utterly destroy their year long hard work.

[narratr]

"Imagine Funny Cat Videos meets Gangnam Style, BOOM" he says as the entire audience combusts into flames

[TheVerge]

Amazingly enough, this was what they played during the actual keynote. Because Qualcomm couldn't get the streaming rights to the Maroon 5 song. It was insane and surreal.

[Renyth]

If you imagine this as a parody straight from a Grand Theft Auto game the cringe factor dissapears completely

[wqhhj]

You cannot find anything more spectacular then the moment when the bloke said "...or a CEO!" and then you saw his face and he made that cheeky smile like he's saying "I'm so proud of myself for creating that abomination that you have juts witnessed"

[gasenkotsu]

I can't. I'm not strong enough.

[CADMTM]

Wear masks if you're going to do something this atrocious.

[THLTFX]

i wasn't born mobile but i was born chernobyl

[TideYT]

It really says something that the Ballmer portion was the least horrible part of the keynote.

[OliverKlozzofff]

Back for my yearly viewing. That tornado92 "WAAAAH" never fails at killing me.

[lejay]

"Hey guys, I got a great idea for our keynote."

"What?"

"STEREOTYPES FROM 2005!"

"Yes! That should go perfectly with our theme of Desperately Trying to Stay Relevant!"

[GuitarMage]

It's like watching the cast of a 90's toy commercial that time-traveled to the present and ended up on a stage, all while keeping in-character.

[VivaToddVegas]

"10, 000 applications were added in the last month alone. I will now list each one by name...."

[funkophone]

Just who in the shit were they trying to appeal to with this?

[dawaltco]

imagine being those first kids and knowing that your bombing that hard but just powering through the script because it's in your contract.

[intruder]

2 and half minutes is too much but I think the full Keynote was over an hour.

Does the audience ever laugh, clap or even once signal they are still alive ?

[archaicnoise]

i come back to this video every couple of years. amazing little snapshot into the world of out of touch chipset manufacturers trying to connect with a userbase they only know through focus group testing

[PunchlineEverytime]

Man, the way that girl yelled "texting?!" really spoke to me, clearly the people who put this together truly understand our generation.

[zakkroberts]

This so god damn hilarious. I watch it on the regular. Its existence may be one of the single best aspects of living in this era.

[captainnintendo]

I cringed so hard that my toes are now ingrown in the underside of my feet.
