Anyone that white knights people like Justin Beiber or Kim Kardashian doesn't deserve to have their opinions taken seriously.

1. Don't know much about Fat Albert, having watched very little of it as a kid, but dark/adult humor can be found in kid's cartoons.
2. Freaky Fred is not a Pedophile. He's more like a mentally insane person. Not everyone whose insane is a pedophile.
3. That Spongebob joke was pretty tame. Get on Tom and Jerry's level.
4. Wow, it's almost as if the the Joker is an evil villain or something.
5. The Hey Arnold episode was about bullying and the stupid cliques children separate themselves into. Not segregation you stupid fuck.

Even Cracked readers don't like him.
 
I think some of their stupidest articles are, by far, the ones that relate to music. Oh don't get me wrong the abundance of "__ Things I learned in my time as ______" are fucking stupid. And so are the SJW-heavy ones. But the music ones are what really get me going. It's like none of the writers are big music lovers, or at the very least, don't do much in the way of research.

Another one that's easy to attract spergs are any article that talks about CGI or special effects in general, such as this one. Just look at the comments.

Cracked to me is just a poor man's version of Mad Magazine - well, the older stuff is on part with the goofy anarchy and satire Mad had (if a little more vulgar), but now? Nope.

Cracked in print form was the poor man's MAD, I have to mention. Few people remember that it started out as a magazine back in the 50s.
 
Is that Daniel something guy who's obsessed with Spiderman and fighting presidents and got interrogated by the Feds for writing an article about kidnapping Obama's daughters still writing for Cracked?

He was funny.

Everyone else is not funny.

It's plainly obvious that the guy's a (functional) drug addict. He wrote a blog entry about giving up all his substances for one day and how fucked up it made him before promptly getting smashed again. (He also pressured his friend, who was 33 and had not drank alcohol once in his life, to get blackout drunk on whiskey.) He doesn't acknowledge that he has a problem and seems to use humor to cope with it.
 
I still check Cracked fairly frequently. Despite the massive drop in quality, there is still the occasional diamond in the rough. Seanbaby wrote an article about Superman a month or so ago, and it was pretty good. They had an article last week or so with some fan theories that was pretty good, too. I also like their photoshop contests. The "[x] things I learned while [y]" articles are usually uninteresting, and I tend to avoid them, though I have read through a couple of them and found them to be fairly informative. There was one about the disastrous after effects of getting punched in the face that I liked. Incidentally, I also want to punch most Cracked writers in the face.
 
I used to enjoy their articles on science and weird animals :(
 
I'll just throw in that over the last couple years, as other's have noted, a link to Cracked is likely to be clicked with me hoping it's not someone's flimsily-disguised sociopolitical rant, quality is just not there anymore.

Anyone insisting that people wear the "right" clothes for their gender is saying, "I sexistly categorize every single human I see on sight, and you're screwing up my filing system." And those insisting on calling people what they "really are" really are shitheads.

The only reason gender isn't obsolete as a concept is society is too entrenched in the mountains of bullshit we built up around it. After inventing a medium of exchange, electricity, and forklifts, physical differences should have become irrelevant. Continuing to discriminate by gender is like ignoring cars for horse-drawn carriages because we got too dependent on having horseshit everywhere, but the only industry was dumping that shit on half of the population. And training the other half to think they enjoyed the shoveling.

So childbirth, breastfeeding, periods, multiple human organs and bones and chemicals and brain structures are now suddenly meaningless because we've built machines that spin really fast?

Good to know! Somebody should tell Chris Brown and ADF they don't need to worry about those women they assault! After all, gender is just a social construct! Anyone telling you it's real is just a cissexist shitlord! LEARN MY PRONOUNS!
 
I've not laughed at in awhile.

It's informative though...on the other hand, they did an article on the most prolific serial killers and left out Harold Shipman.

That bugging me probably means I'm some sort of monster.

Oh, and After Hours is alright.
