Worst. Catchphrase. Ever.
You are not Comic Book Guy. His famous catchphrase of "worst.(noun).ever." is occasionally appropriate, but when it is applied frequently and with multiple different conjugations, it becomes played out. Please. Stop. Doing. This. Thank you. /rant

Hasbro is Dumb, but maybe there is help for Mark, after all
Hasbro is trying to get Scrabulous shut down, as apposed to the smart thing it should do: BUY THE APPLICATION! Seriously, even though Mark has a problem, and may need intervention, Hasbro doesn't even realize the potential for this app to sell more ACTUAL BOARD GAMES.

Cold Enough For You?

One beer + a giant burrito...
Why is it that you can't drink one beer without getting sleepy? Add a huge burrito to that beer and you're even more sleepy, and you're also really full so even if you wanted to drink more beer to make you not sleepy anymore, you couldn't because there's no room in your stomach!

A Random Aquantance Has Sent You a GIF Image!
Srsly, Facebook? What's the deal with all these random "gifts" that people can send to each other? This is the internet. Images aren't a scarce resource. I could easily take a photo of a beer and send it to all my friends without using your absurd little system. Better yet, I could buy a real drink for people I actually see enough to warrant one. Get a voucher system ...
