It's official. Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook has been selected as Time's Person of the Year. Time's "Person of the Year" is the person or thing that has most influenced the culture and the news during the past year for good or for ill. Mark Zuckerberg, by creating Facebook, has connected hundreds of millions of people around the world.
Of course the Chilean miners were also in the running and the joke is they got the shaft. That would mean Julien Assange was robbed; Obama was vetoed; Steve Jobs was the rotten apple; the unemployed American was an unsuccessful candidate; Tony Hayward, CEO of British Petroleum was too slick; Nancy Pelosi wants a recount and Sarah Palin in her own word, “refudiates” the outcome. Somebody stop me!
Facebook has contributed to the creation of a whole new way of spelling badly as well as introducing a series of acronyms like lol which can mean laughing out loud or little old lady or lots of love or lots of luck depending on ‘wat u r talking about’or ‘who u r taking with’. FOS could mean freedom of speech unless you are talking to your spouse when he is trying to explain why he forgot your anniversary again then FOS would obviously stand for full of shit.
Acronyms are nothing more than customized personal license plates with a few numbers thrown in for good measure. Mine reads IH8MYXX.
