This App is currently in the Review Process at Apple and we hope to have it launched in the next week or two.

*** Many users of this App have been known to drop their iPhone and iPod Touch devices after their mind is read. We take no responsibility for any damage that may result to your device!

A week after submission, we received an ominous email from Apple stating that our app was going to take a bit longer than normal to review due to the nature of the app. We were at a loss because this was our most simple and straightforward app. It consists of one button as you can see from the screenshot to the right.

When the user presses the button a recording is played. If you haven’t guessed already, the idea of the app is to poke fun at Rep Joe Wilson’s outburst. It was never our intention to make any political judgments or take sides. The idea of the app is to have fun. It’s called satire. This Your Lie outburst has been joked about and debated to death zillions of times in every newspapers and talk show on the planet. In fact, hundreds if not thousands of Apple podcasts and iPhone news, video, twitter and blog Apps have undoubtedly featured the You Lie story.

What was Apple’s problem? They were nice enough to tell us when we received a personal phone call from Richard who works in the iPhone App Review Team. It turns out that they didn’t like the fact that 4 of 70 recordings included the phrase You Lie, Mr. President versus the simpler versions we use in the majority of the recordings such as You Lie, You’re a Liar, Liar and You’re Such a Liar. Richard claimed that using ‘Mr President’ is objectionable because it ridicules public figures. On a second call he had an issue with our App Description (see Banned App Description below) and we were forced to remove any mention of the event and of the names Obama and Joe Wilson. For some reason, Apple believes that it is their right to wipe the memory of the event clean and not allow any mention of it that is not a simple news story. We have to believe that there have been plenty of one-sided diatribes both for and against Wilson’s outburst within the walls of the App Store and Podcast areas, but of course Apple just had issue with You Lie. Not sure what to make of any of this, but we had no choice but to comply with Apple’s request if we wanted to give You Lie any chance of seeing the light of day.

THE “DUDE” LEXICON (examples of each are included in this version):

Dude is one of the most versatile words in any language. John Swansberg of Slate identifies “at least six distinct usages” of dude:

• The admonitory dude: the dude deployed when your buddy won’t stop humming “Umbrella” on a long car ride. As in, “Dude, enough.”
• The interrogative dude: useful for ascertaining whether you’ve dropped a call. “Dude? Are you still there?”
• The deflated dude: the dude of bad news. “Dude. Tom Brady’s wearing a boot.”
• The exclamatory dude: the dude of good news. “Dude! Tom Brady is no longer wearing a boot!”
• The sotto voce (under one’s breath) dude: for classified briefings. “Dude: Here comes that tall drink of water from accounting.”
• The blissed-out dude: more accurately rendered as duhuhude. The dude issued upon rediscovering a long-lost (Grateful) Dead tape.

Our in-house Dude experts have identified several more usages:

• The “What were you thinking?” dude: When you are shocked by the stupidity of your best friend.
• The scary dude: What Shaggy might say to Scooby-Doo just before saying “RUN!” when the scary pumpkin headed ghost is fast approaching, duuuuuude!
• The “What’s up with that?” dude: When someone walks right into you on the street in New York.
• The “I’m Sorry” dude: dude (I’m sorry).

“Dude” is very famous as well, appearing in Bud Light commercials, headlining major motion pictures like “Dude, Where’s my car,” helping launch the career of Keanu Reeves and the other guy in Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and appearing as the title character “The Dude” in The Big Lebowski.

So thank you for downloading this iPhone app, and to all of you who do, we say to you in the immortal words of Wayne and Garth, “Party On, Dude.”
