YES, YES PEOPLE WOULD STILL BE DISGUSTED IF IT WAS A GUY WHO MADE YOGURT OUT OF HIS SEMEN OR SOMETHING. Making anything out of your bodily fluids- especially something food-related- is fucking gross. Why would you do that? :cryblood:

You know what? Food and eating is over-rated, I think I'll try starvation instead and become a skeleton.
 
I think Gawker as a company does qualify as a lolcow. I mean just look at how they behaved as a company when they lost so many advertisers over Biddle. Instead of just firing him or chastising him and trying to woo back their advertisers (which is how a media company makes their money) they doubled down and made attack articles against the investors that left. I don't understand how this company is in business.

I nearly vomited when I heard about Natural Harvest; I don't favor eating the secretions of anyone.

I get it now. This natural harvest stuff is just one more example of the media bias against skeletons. Check your organic tissue privilege.
 
A Gawker editor getting owned by Jimmy Kimmel on CNN for a column they used to run online called Gawker Stalker, which consisted of posting gossip about celebrities taken from tips received by New Yorkers that they didn't bother fact checking. Jimmy got butthurt after they posted that Jimmy was seen in public and looked drunk when this wasn't the case.

In light of the great Jacespiracy, Sam Biddle's bitchfest about how awful Jace Connor and Gamergate on the whole is has become even funnier than it already was.

Stay gold, Gawker Media, stay gold.
 
I see a lot of these dumb articles on my facebook feed from different circles of friends. They're always clickbait designed to emotionally charge people up over something stupid. SJWs and just in general self-righteous people love posting this shit to show everyone how morally superior they are for agreeing with whatever the stupid premise of the article is. The threads usually start out with a bunch of self-congratulatory outrage circlejerking between one another until one person is brave enough to step in and call everyone stupid for jumping to conclusions based on a stupid article. They exist just to get groups of people all fired up, so they can say something so "brave" in response to impress their facebook friends.

Having said that, it is pretty hilarious seeing some of the reactions and opinions touted as fact that are produced by these articles. It's hard to define gawker as a lolcow, but I feel like the laughter comes from the same place. Laughing at people who take themselves absurdly seriously, but who are in fact total morons.

that's honestly the best part of it all. Jace indirectly revealed modern journalism to be more of a joke than any twitter slapfight or hashtag campaign ever has.

Okay girls, let's drool over images of male sports stars and glorify our sexuality because we can never do anything wrong even when we leak a celebrity's private, intimate moments—

Oh my god.

What is that.

Is that a man??????? Sexualizing a woman????????

This can't be happening. We can't believe you even had the nerve to do something like this, you chauvinistic pigs. You are a chauvinistic pig.

We are so triggered right now. The patriarchy. It's the patriarchy.

THIS IS SO TOXIC OH MY GOD TAKE THIS OFF THE INTERNET RIGHT NOW, OR SO HELP ME GOD I WILL TEAR YOU APART WITH EVERY FIBER OF MY BEING OR AT THE VERY LEAST WHINE ABOUT IT ON MY SHITTY LITTLE WEBSITE AAAUUUUUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHH

One problem I find with Gawker is that they're two-faced. One example of this was them manipulating the Nascar Twitter bot to repeat quotes from Mein Kampf. The next day? Article headlines reading NASCAR IS ANTI-SEMITIC!! Also half the writers are pretentious, self-centered hipster cunts that think everyone's interested in their lives. Somehow most of the articles end up centering around the journalist and what he ate for lunch that day.

Jezebel obviously takes the cake when it comes to pure shittiness but Kotaku is not far behind with all of its SJW drivel that it pumps out on a weekly basis. I also find that Deadspin is weapons-grade unfunny and the comments section is particularly cringeworthy with the same jokes repeated over, and over, and over. There's also a clique of regular commenters that basically suck the journalists' cocks for bogus internet points and imaginary fame (this includes fawning over how awesome Kinja is).

Some of the smaller blogs can be decent but the site in general is just a shithole run by shills and rabid SJWs. It's hard to generate lulz on the site s themselves due to the approved commenting system mentioned earlier but there's ways around it.

I don't remember how long ago it was but there was this one piece about one of the Jezebel writers getting in a Twitter fight with Courtney Love and being shocked, SHOCKED! that Courtney was acting like a crazy person and taking things out of context... and apparently also unable to type so good.

Like she thought being a Hole fan who adored her growing up would mean anything to a lady who's living in an Etsy-fueled hoard and killed a dog from neglect.

I'd still rather hang out with Courtney on a junk binge than any of these asshats.
