I just had a quick look at the Cracked homepage and it looks like they’ve got articles written by actual writers again, which is a nice change. It turns out that, while cheap, filling your website with bullshit listicles written by “Cracked readers” makes for bad content.
Those aren’t “articles” there’s like a paragraph, and then a shit ton of pictures with text.
Fucking got my hopes up and everything, I’m gonna remember this one for April Fool’s though. Right up until you scroll down the first time it’s super convincing that it’s back.

Ooops… Sorry. I didn’t mean to mislead you.
All I did was scroll down and note that I didn’t see any articles written by “Cracked readers” - I didn’t actually look at the articles themselves.
DigDoug? Here? MeFi DigDoug? How are ya!
I think that must be someone else, I don’t know what MeFi is, I’m afraid.
Aah okay. “MeFi” is “Metafilter,” another website out there. where I’ve seen a different DigDoug. It’s a cool name anyway.
