zuckerberg im's

"Hey, I'm Mark, but you can call me Zuck"

So the New Yorker just published an article on FaceBook founder, Harvard non-graduate, and all around smily guy, Mark Zuckerberg.

The best part of the article:

Zuckerberg, or "Zuck" as he is known to friends and family (awesome points = for sure not +1), got some embarrassing IM's leaked out. Here's the conversation (referring to FaceBook, obviously) ...

FRIEND: so have you decided what you are going to do about the websites?

ZUCK: yea i’m going to fuck them
ZUCK: probably in the year
ZUCK: *ear

Now I for sure have had my fair share of embarrassing instant message moments, IE// not gonna get into any of them, but it feels good to laugh at someone who has way too much money when I don't.

Another clip from the IM shows good ole' Zuck telling his friend if he ever needs info on fellow Harvard students, he's the man with no morals to talk too...

ZUCK: yea so if you ever need info about anyone at harvard
ZUCK: just ask
ZUCK: i have over 4000 emails, pictures, addresses, sns
FRIEND: what!? how’d you manage that one?
ZUCK: people just submitted it
ZUCK: i don’t know why
ZUCK: they “trust me”
ZUCK: dumb fucks

Even though this was years ago and in college, it sure makes me feel secure (sarcasm font?) when the creator and owner of millions of profiles worth of personal information would say something like that.

broken toys

by l.p. burns

as children bring their broken toys
with tears for us to mend,
i brought my broken dreams to my god
because he was my friend.
but then, instead of leaving him
in peace to work alone,
i hung around and tried to help
with ways that were my own.
at last i snatched them back and cried,
'how can you be so slow?'
'my child,' he said, 'what could I do? ...

... you never did let go'
