Not sure where to begin with this one, so I guess the facts will have to do. On July 4, billionaire Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg posted a video to his Instagram account. The video shows Zuckerberg on what appears to be an electric hydrofoil surfboard just as the sun sets over a body of water, American flag blowing in the breeze, while John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" plays.

I feel like social media has been collectively experiencing the stages of grief as the 71-second video goes viral -- clocking over 500,000 views on both Instagram and Facebook within hours.

Denial came quickly: Zuckerberg must just be trolling us, surely? We're all falling for it. He's got us. (And he truly might. The meme potential of this image is so high that no billionaire social media mogul could post it without knowing there'd be thousands of articles discussing it -- including this one.)

Many quickly moved on to the anger: Open up Twitter, and you'll find it has been relentlessly pilloried. It's reaching "Zuckerberg with a face full of sunscreen" levels .
