- brlewis 15y agoOne of the images is of the last paragraph of the FTC page about Facebook where readers are invited to Like the FTC on Facebook. Background: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3291909 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3291909
- jdp23 15y agoI wonder if the FTC will follow through on the settlement and fine Facebook $10,000 for each violation? There's a dozen or so photos of Zuck, so that's $120K already ...

- balsam 15y agoi'd like to see these tagged. (seriously) anybody knows what they are drinking in that last pic? The bottle looks interesting.
- tptacek 15y agoLooks like Johnnie Walker Blue. I'm a little skeezed out at having looked at these photos at all, but "name that liquor" will apparently (in borderline cases like this) trump my principles.
- corin_ 15y agoYep it is, the drink of choice for people who don't want a particularly cheap bottle and pay for label not taste.
- pork 15y agoSorry, that's utter bullshit. Blue Label is a perfectly delicious scotch.
- corin_ 15y agoIt's not nasty but it's a drink that's blended to taste reasonably bland, designed for drinking alcohol not designed for enjoying the taste. Its target market is people who don't want anything particularly interesting. Don't get me wrong, it's much nicer than a £20 bottle of blended stuff, but nowhere near good enough to justify the price tag, and is the huge majority of scotch drinkers (at least a huge majority of those who buy by taste not price) would rate a much cheaper single malt over it, yet alone an equal-costing bottle. Don't get me wrong, when I get given a bottle I enjoy drinking it, but not as much as the bottles I spend £30-£80 on, yet alone the bottles I spend more on. So that's personal opinion, but it's shared by most people who have drunk and enjoyed a decent range.
- tptacek 15y agoWhat's the blended scotch you prefer to Johnnie Walker? I tried to avoid the trap of saying "yeah but you can get Springbank for half the price".
- corin_ 15y agoPersonally I would always chose a single malt, and as such I'm not an expert in blends. That said, plenty of people tell me that blends can be pretty good, so I try not to judge them too much - although truthfully I do think of them worse objectively as well. A great blend might be better than a poor scotch, but I think the worse and best of blends are lower than the worst and best of scotches.

- flyosity 15y agoThis is a little too meta... I tweeted that (that's me!) but the link to Zuck's photos was found further down in the comments here on HN. That's where I saw it.
