Transcript
Mark Zuckerberg's super yacht is in the news after a small boat ran out of fuel off the coast of Alaska.
Speaker A:And people wanted to know why the giant billionaire boat didn't help.
Speaker B:On the ocean Blue.
Speaker B:Zuckerberg will not rescue you.
Speaker B:Cause of couldn't care less if your shield sends an SOS Cause ZBO will not be rescuing anyone.
Speaker B:As Zuck's bones.
Speaker B:Ask him for help and he will not come.
Speaker B:What a cowardly loser.
Speaker B:A weak wussy and nerdy man.
Speaker B:Cause I suck is a selfish guy.
Speaker B:He's indifferent if you sink and die.
Speaker B:Cause Zuck is a big door to suck.
Speaker B:Zuck.
Speaker A:Any excuse to do a parody of the Love Boat theme song is one I'll take.
Speaker A:So there's this little skiff out there.
Speaker A:Like can anyone help sending an SOS and Zuckerberg's nearby 387 foot long floating mansion called the Launch Pad, worth about $300 million, did not respond.
Speaker A:Now, a spokesperson said the yacht crew didn't hear the call at first and by the time they knew about it, another boat had already helped.
Speaker A:And the Coast Guard has said that the skiff wasn't technically in distress.
Speaker A:So legally, maybe this is less dramatic than the Internet wanted, but emotionally, come on.
Speaker A:If Zuckerberg's boat doesn't help, suddenly it's a metaphor for capitalism and social media.
Speaker A:Nobody wants to see a superyacht standing by.
Speaker A:We want to see the rich boat, save the little boat.
Speaker A:Basically every children's book morality come to life.
Speaker A:Well, that's what we want to see.
Speaker A:We want the big boat to help the little boat.
