a respectable journalism outlet that, when presented with the choice between "famous man is actually racist rear end in a top hat" or "look at the penis of a famous man", made a predictable choice

Clickbait websites are trash and my primary amusement online is people getting upset at them. Secondary amusement is people defending them. Third is porn obv.

But most terrible companies and indited entertainers also do some good things, and aren't the years of bringing laughter to the world what really matter?

as far as bill cosby goes, that is all hannibal buress's doing and he deserves a trophy

the first time i heard hannibal buress tell a joke about video games, and you could tell from the joke that he actually was a Video Games Enthusiast, and not just some loving normie writing a joke based on what they remember about Super Mario, i knew he was a keeper.

i saw him last month for like $5 at meltdown comics with janeane garafalo and ron funches. buress told a lot of great jokes about like 'being a comic' and the poo poo he gets asked/has to do. it was a really good set. there were also crickets that were up in the rafters chirping and so whenever there was a pause, he'd be like "What the gently caress, crickets? jesus this a hard crowd"

At least, not bullshit curiosity gap clickbait. And they're not just a reposting site for other content like most of buzzfeed, news aggregation isn't just embedding a vine video
