So now where is that California tax rev going to come from?
Facebook 'Barely Legal" As 18 penetrated.
I LAWLED
Hey......I'm gonna be paying for this Grampa. Wudda ya mean I'm too young?
Facedophilia. Where investors get molested by billionaire zuckers & Ball Street.
Uh, it's 17 now, so no longer legal - at least in most western countries.
Facebook is disgusting on a multitude of levels now.
Paging Jerry Sandusky, paging Jerry Sandusky, your needed on the Penn State fan page for some "tasks."
Just don't use FB on an iPod. You might eventually get charged as an iPedofile.
Before you deranged FB haters start laughing, I thought I should let you know that my FB position is fully hedged with high delta puts, and I have absolutely no exposure at these levels. Should this sell off continue, I will consider adding to more core position, and I will be set to profit from long term value creation as Facebook's senior management discover innovative ways of bringing down costs and improving margins.
1/10.
How the mighty have fallen.
indeed, how does one "bring down the cost" of the shit people post on FB anyway? MDB is losing it.
'Before you deranged FB haters start laughing,'...
WTF does he mean by 'start', I've been splitting my sides over this for months...
I think what he was saying there was, he was all giddy walking along the top of this facebook fence, slipped off and is now hanging there upside down with his core stuck in the railing ;-)
MDB on May 17, 2012:
"My first price target is $100, followed by $200 shortly after. Buy while you can as this buying window will NOT last for long. FB is going to be the next AAPL, but not everybody will be smart enough to buy now while it's still cheap."

MDB on May 18, 2012:
"This so awesome. I contacted my broker last night and asked him to buy me 300 shares. When he asked what my maximum bid price is, I literally said "anything - just get me my shares". This is history in the making, and I am going to tell my grandkids this story when they’re inheriting my stock at multiples of the current price."

MDB 0n May 22, 2012
"Bought another 300 shares yesterday - taking advantage of this discount. It's all about dollar-cost averaging. My average entry is now at $38 so I'm in the same boat as most of the top buy-side bidders at the original offering."
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/facebook-all-time-lows-27-highs#comment-24...
I could go on but it is just to painful to read. ;-)
lol...sounds like his broker has him right where he wants him ;-)
Hmm, dat's why de be called brokerz...
oops, no bonus this year.
EXACTLY Alaric...thanks for taking the time to expose this fucking douchebag......asshole....fuck-bot....Robo Max Fishcunt....
aka robotrader
MDB, Robo, and Max Fisher are all the same person, and get off on red votes. I applaude his work, he could take on Jim Craimer any day; they might be Craimer trying out material before the show for all we know. Tyler, are they all coming from the same IP?
Tijuana Donkey Show said:
There are indeed certain similarities. They all appear to enjoy the hobby of poking hornets' nests with sticks, but the subtle differences lead me to suspect they are different people.
RobotTrader appears to be one of those "it can't happen here" believers. He's the person on the Titanic in the luxury bar saying, "it might sink, and then again it might not, but there's still plenty of time left and you're a fool if you let all this good, and free, champagne go to waste."
Max Fischer strikes me as the kid in grade school who isn't quite retarded enough to be put into special education. He craves attention and willingly says stupid things as long as it gets him noticed. However, he is retarded enough to think that the hornets whose nest he poked will recognize his superiority and thus won't sting him.
MDB, on the other hand, appears to delight in lampooning the positions of the status quo via the technique of reductio ad absurdum. The entertainment value, of course, comes from the veneer of sincerity he applies. Like flypaper, it is a seemingly innocuous trap for the unwary.
Well put FourthStooge....
All are different smelling shit.
Liar.
I don't know why y'all neg MDB. The man is an idiot savant of sarcasm!
Forgive them father, for they know not what they do!
Forgive them father, for they know not what they LOLZ

You definately got the 'idiot' part correct.
He & that "US Citizenism" guy just keep me in stitches.

MDB, I have read some of your other posts. I am suspecting you just like swatting the bee's nest with heavily disguised sarcasm. You certainly seem to relish being junked. Fess up!
Look, I just can't see why anybody would purchase a company whose IPO was more than that of CISCO - which basically *IS* the infrastructure of the Internet, not just an application.
On top of that, Facebook is kind of scummy. If you post anything there they'll sell your information to absolutely anybody - they don't care. If Facebook could make a profit helping the mafia setup a child prostitution ring, I'm absolutely certain they would. They have absolutely no morals at all. They are the damned creepiest company in the tech world today.
And what exactly is facebook? Does it increase productivity like Microsoft? Does it help you get information like Google? Does it run major infrastructure like Oracle or Cisco?
No, it's a time waster. Basically, it's a place to screw around.
Nah, I'm not a perfect model of what a typical consumer is, I admit, but nothing about Facebook's current valuation makes sense to me. I'd consider it a 2-5 billion dollar company, tops - and that's only if they can demonstrate that they are able to actually drives sales of advertised products, which I don't think they can.
Think of how much they would save on electricity if they just turned off all of their servers.
Whatever, it's less than half it's IPO and you're bleeding theta daily.
Now that's some funny shit there. I don't care who ya' are!
I thought for a minute you could be Steve Liesman having some fun with this group, but then I realized that Liesman is too stupid to be as dry and witty as you. Thanks for the witty and dry bluster...keep it coming so we all can recognize the fools you represent when we see them. ;-J
MillionDollarBonus, if I had just arrived from Mars or that I didn’t know you any better, your ‘take’ of a crap company is pretty funny.
I'm not a hot shit trader like you MDB, but shouldn't FB senior management have thought of innovative ways of bringing down costs and improving margins before the stock went all to shit? The farther down it dives the more pressure the management will be under to make something happen.
suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure it is douchebag.............sure....NOW you tell us.....LOL...Mr. "Right Side of the Chart" motherfucker....
LOL.....tell ya what ....douche...SHOW US the posts telling us that back....oh.....a couple of months ago...
What's that? You can't??? LOL.....high delta puts.....LOL.....damn man you are a funny fucker.....
AND A FUCKING LIAR....
Watch out Faceplant, at that age you're right in Silvio's bunga bunga wheelhouse!
MDB should be buying foot into mouth...I mean, hand over fist.
As should Netflix CEO Reed Hastings who bought $1,000,000 worth of FB in early August at $21.04. Now worth $850,000 for a one month return of -15.5%.

You should see HIS delta puts.
Who wudda thunk dat a quality stock like dis would eventually match da age of someone's grandkids. Ma gosh! What if dis stock gets YOUNGER dan someone's grandkids? Now dat will be THE STORY to tell when sitting on Gramp's lap.
Anymore stock tips, Gramps?
Facebook to do a reverse stock split to fund their two new start ups. Toddlerbook and Fetusbook.
The fetusbook got funding from Roe & Wade Capital. None of their investments make it past 6 months....
We will buy FB at $4. No sooner. Short until then.
Sold to YOU!
I might buy to cover my short at $4.
Can't afford the gas and the match huh?
frankly and honestly at $4.50 is a buy...and it is a sale at $9 or there about
The gift that just keeps on giving
I'm enjoying this as much as I do everytime BofA makes its semi-annual run towards the pinksheets ... speaking of which, its about time for them to make another run at that, isn't it?
Barely Legal on Bourbon St is technically below sea level. It won't be too much longer before FB is also below sea level.
Bernankegarden! Even FAKE QE ID won't get you wasted on this one.

LOL @ Suckerberg!
Suckerberg says: "lol @ muppets"
Yeah, go ahead and laugh at a multi-billionaire. He could lose 99%+ of his wealth and still never have to work a day in his life. Poor him.
I suppose he lost half his wealth for giggles then. Odd sense of humour.
Still, apparently the guy is quite frugal!
I sincerely doubt if he's happy with the decline in his fortune. Still, I do wonder, what does a guy worth $20 billion buy that a guy worth $10 billion can't buy?
the presidency of the united states
His girlfriend...just to show he's got the bigger swinging johnson...
Rape of minors
Facebookakke.
This is America. Hoochie-koochie and freak shows always sell.
My call on Facebook is still the same as it was in May: at $2 a stock, it's cheap. At $4 it's good value. At $6 it's a little overweight. Anything above $10 is ridiculous.
Actually, if you apply same valuation metrics that are applied to Google, the FMV is $1.82...
4.50 buy
around 9 sale
At this point, it can only go up!
I actually logged on again this weekend. Once more, the privacy rules have changed and I've had new features added without opting in that publish details about me, whether i want it or not. So, I immediately logged back out and swore it off again.
I have never used Facebook and almost never signed into LinkedIn. I figure that Facebook is primarily populated by kids and women (and maybe some gender confused guys). So, while my wife and kids have used Facebook using aliases (but most likely posting actual family details) I never got too wound up about their lack-of-privacy policies. Zuckerbger has always laughed at what people are willing to tell them.
As for another one in the space, LinkedIn, I cancelled my account last week when, after reading an article I realized that simply by buying access to the data base, it could be used as a better industrial espionage tool than previously existed. And THAT is how they are expecting to grow LNKD?!?
George Washington professor and attorney Orin S. Kerr pointed out to Congress that the new law would expose millions of Americans to federal prosecution.
"The current version of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) poses a threat to the civil liberties of the millions of Americans who use computers and the Internet. As interpreted by the Justice Department, many if not most computer users violate the CFAA on a regular basis. Any of them could face arrest and criminal prosecution.
… The CFAA criminalizes conduct as innocuous as using a fake name on Facebook or lying about your weight in an online dating profile. That situation is intolerable. Routine computer use should not be a crime."
Last week I wanted to look at some friends' pages, so for the first time I created a (bogus) account, with a fake name, but used a real gmail address I'd used before. At no point did FB ask for my gmail account password or tell me they could access it. As soon as I was logged on to FB, it told me I might have some friends on FB, and all those it suggested were contacts in my gmail account. Maybe it was somewhere in the fine print.
No big deal. Just one more reminder that online/cell phone privacy does not exist and corporations will and are violating their "privacy" policies at will and selling the data to anyone they want.
Still overvalued by $17.50.
We still have thousands of overvalued stocks to go. I won't be happy until Apple hits double digits and Amazon goes for the single.
Facebook forcing timeline on all users as of last week is going to be the final nail in Zuckeberg's coffin.

I hate to say it, but the last time I saw a plane on that trajectory it wound up six feet under ground.
It COULD be worse. Groupon anyone?
but but the chicago tribune was pumping it up so much it was gonna go to the moon if you listened to them.. i wonder how much the check was for .. bidders anyone?
Does Cramer still think this is a can't miss stock?
That's funny. You used Cramer and think in the same sentence.
My bad. I should have said "Does Cramer's Teleprompter tell him it's a can't miss stock?"
Yes, you should definitely use the profit you made on his Bear Sterns call to good use in Faceberg equity.
I already used all that money to buy Groupon and Greek bonds. I still have a huge pile of cash left over from all those homebuilder stocks he was pimping in 08, so maybe I can push some of that money into Fakebook because we've definitely hit bottom and it can only go up from here...
And so now Wall Street has convinced Zuckerberg to offer up the Faceplant CFO as a ritual sacrifice to take blame for their kleptocracy. But I am sure the CFO will have plenty of money and won't have to be at the company much longer.
Facebook is history. No way it'll be around in its present format in 3 years time.. Or 1. Nobody uses it nowadays, as my niece says, "it's full of grannies and mums.. Not cool"
Whoa, wait a minute. Certainly, this is due to some sort of fat-finger or algo-gone-wild. FB is worth at least $0.20 per share. Oh, you mean 18 dollars. Carry on.
I would not invest until all the stock that is locked has been released....but then you will know what the value is and who has faith in the stock....to me it looks like no one has the faith.....
FaceDown.
Tits up.

Facebook is getting Sanduskyed
Tyler you are funny as hell.
I have a little anecdote re: FB.
My elderly father has a bunch of teacher and adminstrator friends who have a cranky group on FB to discuss how horrible public education is (kind of like ZH for alternative educators). A year ago, at their request, I set up an off-FB discussion forum so that they could have better record of their discussions and more privacy.
Nobody used it. At all.
Until about a week ago and there has suddenly been a FLOOD of posts.
I don't know what this means and I haven't talked to them about it.
means summer vacations are over
They've had it for over a year.
Old people and baby boomers are the Tv generation. They love being F over and lied to like dumb sheep & serfs. Hey Tylers - can we get a few less DNC and Obama banner ads for a day at least. Hoew about more snorg tees, Russian and Asian brides.
its called delayed action response and its a surprisingly rewarding knee jerk. Ask any lady.
the market cap is still an enormous ~$39billion .. think realistically this company should be worth $5 billion as other large media businesses which sell advertising are worth around this, so on this basis it should be worth about $ 2-3 a share.
Look at VXX soaring today....wow....up 1.5%
LOL - I could not figure out your heeadline "barely leagal" 18 penetrated. Thought it might be a link to a porn site!
Then it dawned on me what you were talking about.
Clever headline, and a slow bump on the log here!

Bullish for NSA/CIA fronts who are buying stock all the way down... look at the asset from their point of view - it's a lot cheaper than government doing the legwork the ways they used to, now people enter their own data. Thousands of bureaucrats outsourced to the marks!

Two good moves.
Sorry about the 5 min but nice move on the shares.
Stockholders penetrated.
An*ly.
18?
that ain't nothing.
I waiting for the first Polanski!
Some positive RSI and MACD divergences developing, with the latter in fact on a positive slope notwithstanding FB's relentless decline. Might make for a bounce back to its gap in the 24-26ish range over coming weeks. Some of its insider sellers of late certainly have the cash to make it happen.
Might make for a bounce back to its gap in the 24-26ish range over coming weeks - then again it might not.
There. Now you're completely covered: you can't lose.
I'm saying if FB is still in business, it might bounce at 2.00.
You're right, but if diffident language is not otherwise properly used in making such judgement on uncertain outcomes, then in fact there isn't a view worth stating that can be expressed at all. As it turned out in this case "might" was right. Next time I might not be so lucky. Then again, I might be, in which case you'd be right about the fact that, I can't lose.
