They can be okay with good writers. The Guardian in the UK always has soccer guys do a Super Bowl minute by minute that’s usually entertaining .

A great Gawker moment. GIANT A's homer doesn't know who the players on the team are.

Comment:


So you signed Lorenzo Cain and traded for Christian Yelich because it seemed fun?

Deadspin comments have reached a level of pathetic groveling that honestly astounds me.

The left should study it for how to create new cults of personality

Its impressive because the Deadspin writiers put zero effort into anything they put out but they have these adoring fans who blindly parrot the editorial position of the site without any prompting.

They're like Barstool fans.

Maybe that's why they hate each other.

Not entirely true: I'd say maybe 7-10% of their output has had effort put into it, but the rest is just quick little posts called "Look At What A Stupid Asshole This Stupid Asshole Is Being To These Other Stupid Assholes" that are designed to get clicks and comments and be forgotten immediately.

It's funny how quickly we all forgot about the entire paid-by-the-pageview model and Denton's weird management style where writers were pushed out the door for missing quotas they didn't know they had to hit or just treated like shit until they quit on their own. It's like everyone was catching on that hey, Gawker really is just a dumb sloppy content mill like any other, only with writers who posted on FOAD when they were at Dartmouth, but then Daulerio made a rape joke about a four-year-old, got the whole company nuked, and we had to pretend that they were a peerless crusader for truth and decency. That whole chapter is forgotten.

TLDR: Lefty Mic.com writer is guilty of being a bad boyfriend and as a result loses his job. #metoo

_________________

#metoo expanded the wrong way: instead of expanding outward to include less glamorous and prestigious women who face their share of sexual trauma (helloooooo, food service and hospitality industries), it expanded inward to concentrate on those same glamorous and prestigious women, but with more abstract slights and transgressions, like taking too long to reply to a text after "dick too bomb."

Lots of "it's okay baby you didn't do anything wrong, you're such a good boy and they're such bad boys." They're all the same forum assholes.

Literally laughed out loud at about half of this. What a pussy. I'm very glad these people lost.

What he's apologizing so profusely over is what really makes it. Everyone in the world except for one person knows none of this pathetic, whiny sob story is sincere, and that one person is barryp himself. These people continue to exist on an entirely different plane of existence than normal people.

It's called Brooklyn

That was a pretty good apology.

what a fucking baby

"In this respect, the most recent version, NBA 2K19, is as yucky as any free downloadable iPhone game. But that’s not the only way 2K19 is astonishingly gross."

Find some new adjectives, flower boy.

I was waiting to see the lefts favorite come bacK: "I know the gang rape and lack of English skills are bad, but mass migration brings such great ethnic food!"

Like a falafel will cure getting hit by a rented truck.
