Facebook caters to CollegeHumor with greasy apology
Due to "PR concerns" — or rather, new COO Sheryl Sandberg's excessively grownup attitude — Facebook bailed on a scheduled game of beer pong against CollegeHumor. The people at CollegeHumor, an IAC subsidiary, were certainly nonplussed. But Facebook is flush with cash. Sure, it's supposed to go toward server upgrades, but sometimes bribery through food is a better investment.
"We had a feast and all turned out well," reports CollegeHumor cofounder Ricky Van Veen, who described the buffet as "pizzas, mozz sticks, and wings". Nobody tell Facebook's ex-Google chef Josef Desimone, though, as we have a sneaking opinion the mozzarella wasn't organic and locally sourced from within a 100-mile radius. (Photo by Ricky Van Veen)
