      DESTROYED, even.

      The cocktail wieners tasted funny. I think it was the Brazilian rosewood toothpicks soaked in cognac, and covered in gold leaf. Billie had 16!

      You people bitch when they use the term “slam” but here they are trying something new and you shit on them anyway.

      • Turns out that its not the specific few words, but the fact that Zuck wasn’t physically dragged/slammed/destroyed/evicerated or even just separated from his hundreds of billions. She actually just said some words.

          Reasonable complaint, but I’d sooner commend her actions over the condemn the author’s title.

        It’s just the hyperbole. It wouldn’t matter which specific word they used if it more closely matched the level of intensity of what actually happened.

        In this instance, even a cliché, overused term like ‘jabs’ would be fine.
