    are you actually reading Stormfront, Undo? because, you've built up an immunity to standard RWS so you now need to inject pure uncut bigotry directly into your brain?

    Oh I was hoping this was about a Billy Joel fansite.

    I plan to live to a ripe old age by not visiting any of the sites undo frequents. Including reddit, which I gather is a common destination for many people, but seems like a useless wall of noise the couple times I've been linked there.

    i think a lot of these sites turn into information-overload drugs, and once you get used to it your ability to wean off is limited.

    i'm fairly comfortable sticking to twitter, where you can do a much better job of curating your own news feed. all i've ever seen on reddit are various AMAs i've been linked to, which, to yancy's point, seem aesthetically hideous, although somewhat informative. it's enough to keep me away from the rest of reddit.

    Apparently the 'leader' of Reddit had to point out that you're not allowed to post child pornography on his website and this led to a controversy amongst many of the regulars who aren't happy w/ this decision.

    I haven't. What is it? I still haven't figured out how to read, let alone use, Reddit.

    Every now and then I take a look at the reddit hockey page and get treated to threads like this:

    New hockey fan question #31241: Are there any teams that are... friends?

    r/gonewild is a subreddit where mostly 18-34 year old women (and some dudes) post pictures of their naked bodies and genitals in exchange for Reddit points (or karma, or whatever)

    basically it is a bunch of nubile girls from all over the world showing their tits and sticking dildos up their butts for male validation.

    it is altogether horrifying, mystifying and glorious.

    I went there. Looks like a handful of amateur porn photos in a format that's very annoying to navigate. I guess if you're a reddit regular, most of the thrill is thinking that girls from the community are baring it all. Even though some of them are probably just dudes posting hot girls.

    I can't ever get a sense of "community" from a message board without user avatars.

    Yeah, that's the worst aspect of Stormfront.
