Zucc

Alternative spelling of Zuck, a shortening of Zuckerberg, referring to Facebook founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. The use of "cc" in place of "ck" is an imitation of "succ", which is used as slang to refer to fellatio. Some also claim that this spelling comes from the spelling practices of the Crips street gang, who consider "CK" taboo as it can stand for "Crip Killer". (Can this⁽⁺⁾ etymology be sourced?)

     To avoid what they called “getting zucced” (a play on Mark Zuckerberg’s last name that means being censored by Facebook), the founders of UCSD Confessions 3.0 then created a closed group called UCSD Confessions Addicts, which is now the main outlet for the confessions.
