Ignoring the title question, I'd have to say that my favorite entry was actually the Panda Express one. It's the only one I laughed about. The reactions I had to most of the others was more along the lines of "Well, people like Wal-Mart." Most of the "true" parts were also only true-for-a-given-value-of-true (like, good enough for a photoplasty).
#1 is probaably the worst entry from my point of view--typos, a lack of humor, a lack of terrifying, and a lack of facts (a zdnet article from 2010 is about the best source available for the numbers, and that was clearly written by someone who doesn't get Chinese law)--just anti-hipsterism hipsterism.
(For the record, I own no Apple products, don't particularly like them, and have no strong opinions about Steve Jobs. OK, fair, I don't like turtle-necks myself.)
It's always in the last place you look for it, unless you're the kind of person who keeps looking for it after you've found it.
