Why does Nick do so many parodies?
Shows like Big Time Rush, ICarly, and Victorious have TONS of parodies of products, shows, Actors, and music artist.
ICarly parody examples: Galaxy Wars (Star Wars), Ginger Fox (Brittany Spears), Magic Meatball (Magic 8 ball), The Dingo Channel (Disney Channel), America Sings (American Idol), The Pear phone, pad, and store (IPhone, IPad, Apple Store), Toon Juice (NickToons), Groovy Smoothie (Jamba Juice, and Booster Juice), Twinjas (Supah Ninjas and Twitches), Nug Nug (Yoda or Jar-Jar Binks), Girl Sprouts (Girl Scouts), Build-a-Bra (Build a Bear)
Victorious Parody examples: Same with the Pear store, Wahoo Punch (Hawaiian Punch), The Blonde Squad (Charlies Angels), TheSlap, SlapFish (Twitter, Facebook), Grizzly Glue (Gorilla Glue), Freezy Queen (Dairy Queen), Sky Store (Sky Mall), JetBrew (StarBucks), Fat Biscuit (Fat Joe), F-Mobile (T-Mobile), Inside-Out Burger (In-N-Out Burger), Joke-a-Cola (Coke-a-Cola) AND MORE!
Big Time Rush parody examples: Vampi-re (Vampire Weekend), Rock Camp 9 (Camp Rock), Dak Zevon (Zac Effron), Audrey Stewart (Kristen Stewart), Stephanie King (Stephen King), The Ziggle Zaggles (The Wiggles), Muffy the Vampire Slayer (Buffy The Vampire Slayer), Bop Tiger (Bop magazine, and Tiger Beat magazine), The ISlab (IPad), Heather Fox (Megan Fox), Lightning The Wonder Dog (Bolt the walt-Disney kids movie), Wayne Wayne (Eminem), Schooble (Google online), Yard Squirrels (Alvin and the Chipmunks), SnoopTube (YouTube), ScuttleButter (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, myspace ect.) AND MORE!
Disney ALSO does parodies but not as much as Nick does.
It has to do with the copyright to those items they are parodying, they have to pay extra for the usage of famous products and sites like youtube and apple so instead they just make their own. Every show and movie has to do this, that's why logos are often blurred out of shirts people wear because the company doesn't want to pay extra for it.
- Why does restoring my iphone from a backup use up so many gigabytes? I have an iphone 5 and I'm trying to restore my phone from last backup. Unfortunately, the back up is cancelled about 30 minutes in because my hard disk runs out of space. I have 10 gigs left so there should be any problem with that. I went to mobilesync folder and then to the backup folder and there's one folder there. Once you click on that folder there are thousands of files in that folder that have several modified dates on them. Basically can I just delete the old dated files?
- How many watts does it take to charge an iPhone 4? I'm doing a project at school about a bike that could charge your mobile phone. I have found out that the average person could generate about 11 watts / minute on a bike. So I'm not sure how many minutes it would take to charge an iPhone 4?

- How many pictures does 1 GB hold? If I take pictures only with my iPhone 4 (5 megapixel) and a few from a 4S (8 megapixel) how many pictures from them could 1 GB hold?
