If you missed Family Guy this week, they took a characteristically random shot at someone. This time, it was Apple and their "beach ball of death". You can check out the video at the link below:

I knew that was from Mac when I watched the episode, but I didn't get the joke.

What exactly is the joke suppose to be?

It's used to show you that the system isn't responding, basically. Used to happen a lot in Macs.

Hahaha, very good.

I'm surprised some people don't know what the beach ball of death is. I thought it was quite well known.
