fore-skin and seven hundred years ago, the prophecy fore-told by our foreskin fathers spoke of the day when dick pics would come to rule our galaxy. I see it has finally been realized. Consider yourself fore-warned.

3 billion for a company that doesn't have a way to actually make revenue is interesting.

I mean he's got a point, yeah you can put adds in it, but I don't see how you're making back three billion anytime soon. I wouldn't have made that offer but hey that might be why I don't own FB.

It already has advertising within it, it has been heavily funded also I believe.

Facebook is trying to do exactly what all big corporations do. Create a monopoly.

In time I'm sure those bastards will own every major app service.

Did you guys read the article? They're getting offers that value Snapchat a billion dollars higher than the Facebook offer. Of course they declined it.

They probably store all the dick, tit, vag, ass, etc. pics and sell them to porn.

Might seem stupid to you but I'm pretty sure they know what they're doing, maybe it'll backfire, maybe it won't
