Payback is a bitch, isn’t it Mark?

by Mathew on November 30, 2007 · View Comments

I’m shocked — shocked, I tell you — at the conspicuous lack of sympathy that’s being shown for poor Mark Zuckerberg, who has had to sue a magazine aimed at Harvard alumni for publishing some personal information about him, including (as I understand it) his parents home address and some of his, er… passionate journal entries and emails when he was just a young lad at Harvard. How dare they expose his personal data like that? Isn’t that an invasion of privacy? There should be a law or something. It’s almost as though someone was following him around, watching his every move and then publicizing that information without asking him. The nerve of some people.

    I think you are being mean to that nice boy, Mark.

    The next thing you know, you're going to make fun of his flip flops.

    Wait, that's my job.

    I would never make fun of the flip flops — I think Mark deserves a
    lot of credit for sticking with the flip flops. Although now that
    he's in a different income bracket, I think maybe he should trade them
    in for some top-siders.

    Okay, you made me snort coffee with this one. You are so deliciously sarcastic sometimes.

    Why thank you, Karoli — that's one of the nicest things anyone has
    said to me in a long time. By way of a thank-you, I will send a
    coffee clean-up crew over to your place at my expense :-)

    this is a very unethical practice, the publishers even journalist have this irritating habit of sneaking into others life. I'm not sure can we term this as yellow journalism.
