Zuckerberg coldly explains to Facebook staff they are now to be known as "Metamates"

Now, to be fair, we don’t really know that he did this “coldly”…

I mean reptiles are poikilotherms for the large part, so it really would depend on the ambient temperature of the room he was in. For all we know it may have been done “warmly” if it happened in the recent heatwave we’ve had here in CA…

That’s depressing. Comcast is evil.

Jest or not; I am totally using that sentence, verbatim, for my next annual ‘self evaluation.’

Even if it does, I doubt it will pull him out of the Uncanny Valley.

Meat. They’re all made of meat.

That’s impossible. What about the radio signals? The messages to the stars?

They don’t even have meat heads with electron plasma brains inside.

Y’all beat me to it, but anyway:

There is no ‘I’ in “team.”
But there is a “meta.”
There’s also a “mate” which Meta can go & do.
Also a “meat” which they can go beat.

There’s also an “eatme” in “metamates.”

Etc.

Is Meta going to “work”? We can all still call it Facebook right?

I’ll drop the “Facebook” when Zuckerberg drops the Caesar haircut.

Well, the people that work at Pivotal were called “pivots” at one point. I think if I worked somewhere and they came up with some “cute” name given to employees to call themselves, that’s when I’m looking for the exits. It’s bad enough when HR calls people “resources” and then also says “we’re like a family here!” and so on…but “metamates”, “pivots”?

How about GFY?

It’s more fun if you pronounce metamates like tamales.
