now wait just a goddamned minute

you can't call it /frontpage if it's not at the front anymore

and while we're at it, the forums are the new front of the site, but what do we do on the forums? that's right, we "post". a prefix that literally means something that "follows behind"

do webmasters these days not understand english? is this jeffrey's idea of a park-on-the-driveway-but-drive-on-the-parkway joke?

it's actually the great outdoors that's the new front page, our forums ambassadors

we're gonna get a reputation as one of those sites where everyone is a hunky flanneled lumberjack. again.

I don't know why it's taken this long to either kill or try to revitalize the front page.

jeffrey wanted to put an ad on reddit during the meltdown and realized the frontpage was in an embarrassing state of disrepair and swept it under the rug for now. i’m pretty sure that’s basically it. and it’s fine, really. i get that revitalizing the frontpage would be cool, but it’s not an easy thing to do and it’s time to let it die. can always bring it back if a good concept emerges.

the problem with comedy writing today is that it's no longer possible to be funnier than reality. you can pour your heart in soul into a funny cliff yablonksi piece, and it's just completely overshadowed by another stolen ape fiasco

Giving up altogether on the frontpage has absolutely nothing to do with 'ambition leads to ruin', and has everything to do with a complete absence of direction or purpose from the person in charge of what was once the sharpest, funniest website on the internet

times change op, it's all about podcasting now
