Proč nemá Facebook ticker symbol LIKE?

Ne; na burze najdete Facebook pod zcela prozaickým FB. LIKE napadlo jistě nejen mne... Washington Post má řadu dalších pěkných nápadů:

—TMI: Too much information. For the company that made it OK to share details about your broken relationships and drunk-dialing miscues, and deliver passive-aggressive rants about your siblings, all over the Internet.

—TFS: Thanks for sharing! (Again!) Because we were really hoping for an hour-by-hour update of what that lab partner from high school biology is doing every weekend.

—LIKE: You want your friends to Like your posts. Facebook wants you to Like its stock. We note that FRND would also be an acceptable substitute.

—MEEE: Because if Facebook isn’t the modern world’s biggest exercise in self-glorification, then we don’t know what is.

—X: As in, “It’s really time to stop stalking your ex and concentrate on your current relationship.” But since “X’’ is taken by U.S. Steel Corp., we offer STLK as a placeholder.

—THE: Because remember, it was thefacebook.com before it was renamed facebook.com. That’s when it became, in the words of Justin Timberlake as Sean Parker in “The Social Network,” cleaner.

—ZUCK: For Mark Zuckerberg, the face of Facebook and the man all of Wall Street wants to friend. Or “LOL,” for what he’s going to do all the way to the bank.

—POKE: In honor of what is perhaps Facebook’s creepiest feature.

—WOT: Waste of time. Applies to friends who constantly post about going to the gym or the grocery store. Never, ever, ever interesting.

—FBML: For “future blackmail.” As in, those keg-stand pictures are funny now, but could keep you from becoming president in 30 years.
