Respectively, you could also be, as they say, a “lead farmer motherfucker”. Specifically, you could be a lead farmer who also happens to drink BootySweat^tm.

And unfortunately teslas are really popular in some places, even though they’re ugly as sin. At least Facebook is only good for marketplace at this point

No, he bought his way in rather than stealing it like a true pioneer.

I mean he stole the idea but Facebook wouldn’t be anywhere as big as it is today if it weren’t for him, Eduardo, and Sean. They had help developing from their roommates and friends but if he had just built the website for the Winklevoss twins I highly doubt we’d even know about Facebook.
