Please leave buzz feed alone. I get that list style articles are a dumb format, and that it's gonna be here for the long haul. I get that it's cowardly and cynical. I also get the novelty of these articles being juxtaposed with the reality of some apparent eldritch horror or some poo poo. I get it. For the hundredth time I get it.
It's become more annoying than the actual articles about how Batman is Walter White or secretly badass ways to mow your lawn.

4 Steps for Writing a Zack "Ghost Editor" Persons Article:

1) Take an extremely banal and mundane subject (Buzzfeed articles, televangelism, how-to guides)
2) Make it extra spooky
3) ????
4) Profit

And what about that corin tucker's stalker guy all he does is write about how old video games are awesome and new ones are poo poo unless done by someone who fits into some vaguely defined equation that renders them indie enough for praise. Or that loving livestock every article is about dogs like What The Hell???!!??!

PS I thought the complaint about Zack Parsons was that he writes too many political articles? Maybe I'm old as poo poo and can't keep up with all the latest updates on whining about the free content on the front page no one is forcing you to read.

yeah actually they will

And David Thorpe only writes articles awesome enough that when they aren't updated enough for my individual liking I get angry!

And John Hendren writes articles about the world's most Roamin' Dad and!

I love this place.

What does it take to submit an article to the frontpage? I'd like to think there's a lot of people here who'd like to contribute something funny, but it seems like the frontpage is really disconnected from the forums.

get that OUT of my face

the best way to get on the front page is to be a really good poster who everyone likes and then they put you on the front page at least that is what happened in my case

The dog food article is especially dumb. Yeah, some people take pet nutrition and wellness to the extreme, but it's not like wanting to give your pets better quality food and a good life is some kind of hosed up bad thing. Holy poo poo dude get a grip with picking your battles.
