It should be a crime for Zuckerberg to pose a professional.

Zuckerberg is the luckiest kid in the Valley. He has had unheard of opportunity fall right into his grasp for little more than running a website for stuck-up yuppies.

Despite running at the helm one of the world's most popular websites, he has done nothing to monetize his website into something more than just a hangout for youngsters.

You get what you'd expect from a preppy 20-something: A treehouse for college kids and a tip jar.

WHOA! There is what appears to be a crack pipe in the lower right hand corner of photo number four.

Maybe he's been secretly dating Rebecca Gayheart and she left it behind.

Anyone know what that thing would be used for?

@Hiroine Protagonist: Looks more like a crack pipe to me: its glass, round and circular at one end, burnt black where they held a lighter against it and is resting on a ceramic plate. The only thing that could make it more obvious is if Rebecca Gayheart were lounging nekkid in a bathtub in the background. Any backers?

@Zira: That's a fork and a bottle cap. BTW- Facebook is down.

And this new privacy setting has another little catch to it. Used to be that you could set it that no one saw your email. Now you can only set it to "just friends" or "everyone".......
I tried to take the email out, but they won't allow that. Think I will just have to make one up. Either that or close the account. Oh well.

Umm it looks like the photos have been made private again. Did you just go and ruin the fun for everybody? Or am I just doing it wrong? Either way, no "see 290 pictures of Zuckerface" under his profile picture for me.

@iduncan: Being made private is the best possible thing to happen. It shows that the original reveal was likely not intentional. They didn't think things through, and this can be brought up every time they try a shady change.

Wow, all I got from these pics was that Mark is painfully normal. This looks like me & my friends on any given weekend.

But yes, I think you did prove an excellent point. The new changes set my profile pics so that they can be seen by 'friends of friends.' I changed back to friends only - no big deal.

@Grandpapular: I was being sincere. However I hadn't read it carefully enough to see that True/Slant actually broke the story. So I am going to retroactively temper my praise. VWag did beat most everyone else on the link post, however, so that's something.

I booked her for a show I worked on back when she was campaigning against Arnold in California a few years back and let me tell you, she is incredible looking.

Great body, very at ease with herself, and appropriately made up. I never cared about her until I met her, but when I did she made a great impression and was truly beautiful in person.

She is also warm, funny and smells good (no lie). If she has some wrinkles and doesn't look like a twenty year old, that's because she's *not* twenty.

I took a look at the Wintour photos, and hey, she looks great too! More power to these women for aging naturally and gracefully.

What is the problem here? If we published a high res photo of yours or anyone's skin, would that "ruin my lunch" too? Kind of weird that you think it's an insult to publish a pic that shows a woman as she really looks. Isn't the constant airbrushing more of an insult?

She looks like a "woman of a certain age." She hasn't tried to stop anyone from publishing these photos of herself, un-retouched. And don't we all want to know what Wintour and Lohan really look like????

Isn't that a given???

And couldn't most of us care less what Ariana looks like?

She's not making her living off a business that emphasizes good looks. #ariannahuffington

I encourage this but not for snarky reasons. I think people need to see "real" photos. It's the fake, air-brushed to hell and back, plastic looking photos that cause all the trouble. Normal people look at them, many don't realize its no where near reality, and think somehow they are supposed to look that way in real life - its absurd and totally unrealistic. People do not look like plastic dolls in real life. The public shouldn't suffer from an inferiority complex because they look normal and lack a full-time make-up artist and adobe photoshop magician to doctor their every pore. More than anything its toxic for the kids & teenagers, who really don't comprehend the level of fakery involved in celebrity/model photos, yet have consumed them as reality their entire lives. #ariannahuffington
