Wow. That's one of the nastiest pieces of satire I have ever read about any company. Each one of those panels, in isolation, would be banned from this site! I wonder if there will be any response from Blackberry PR about this. It's bad enough that most companies would pull any ads they might still be buying.

Harsh and unflattering, but it seems accurate. I found the Nov. 25 panel unfair though, Chen's doing some much-needed housecleaning. Hopefully Chen can turn this ship around. I was impressed by his openness at the general meeting, there are tough times ahead but at least there's hope.

I just don't see how it's that bad...yeah it's mildly unflattering but I don't think it crosses any lines.

Especially since it's all true.

Harsh? Sure. Untrue? Nope.

Unfortunately true stuff. Let's hope 2014 is better, or at least not worse

Heins' face in the first picture is priceless.

Alicia Keys was a real ****ty idea, and his face reflects that.

BlackBerry's story in 2013 is comic book worthy, lol

Thorsten digging himself a hole is powerful imagery.

[technology1105]

Haha. Nothing offensive at all. It's all true. We have to humor a little bit of it

Nothing wrong about that comic. If BlackBerry wants to get back to business they have to face the reality and the users have to see that truth too.

The market is harsh and the competition is tough. The big picture doesn't look good at all for BlackBerry and the plane going down is not a bad comparison.

If they want to turn things around they need to move quickly. Okay a new pilot took over - now that this is his plane he needs to avoid a crash at all cost because I think Chen is gonna be the last man in the line up. There is no try and error anymore now, this is not a simple turbulence, ground is coming closer.

So dump unneccessary weight, check your instruments, understand them clearly and then restart your engines to get this business back to traveling altitude.

TOO LOW - TERRAIN - PULL UP

Wow, what other company provides such drama!

You know you're on top -- or at least that you represent a serious threat -- when they attack you and make fun of you. So glad I ended up with this device! BB10 is top dog in my book.

Stinging: Yes. Funny: Yes. Inaccurate: No. Cross the Line: No. Year 2013 was indeed that bad for BlackBerry that it was comically funny. Let's see if Chen can fix that smokey tail of the plane.

I'd sooner think that it's a sign of a powerhouse being turned into a laughingstock. When a company loses around 97% of its value in 6.5 years, it tends to draw this kind of attention. I'm not saying they're beyond saving, but I don't think most of the corporate world views them as a serious threat right now.

On top of what? A "serious threat" to whom?

Do you own a pair of those limited edition CrackBerry orange colored glasses? Lol

If you cant laugh at that you are being to serious imo

But it isn't funny though. Like not in the "I'm offended, it's not funny" way but more like "two and a half men is even funnier than this"

It's not funny in the "haha" serious sense. It's funny in a satirical way.

Pretty much sums it up
