Are you suggesting he’s left? Where have you been?

I thought he wrote all the Kinja code and went back to attempting to procreate with the other male hamsters in his cage.

Our dead hamsters..the sorrow of the error race...we’ll take in all their regrets. We’ll take it and turn it into power!

JUST WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK KINJA IS?

I’m confused do we mean the fictional hamster we blame for stuff or the commentor of the same name?

Because the commentor posted on the 12th and I think instead of complaining about the hamster we just go right to blaming Kinja directly.

I’m going to take this opportunity as a relatively new member to admit that I don’t know who or what Nibbles is.

Usually when I see the name, it’s being used in a context similar to “Kinja’d!” . I’m guessing it’s a nickname for site bugs?

Some say the Kinja came from a breach between dimensions of two worlds, and as angry and hungry as nibbles was, he was no match and he was consumed by the Kinja. Kinja is destroyer of worlds, devourer of code.

I thought Kinja was Nibbles in his fully transformed form?

Like Pokemon, only more infuriating.

Yep. Nickname for bugs, deriving mostly from the fact that when posts disappeared, images disappeared, etc. as the most common form of glitch, it made sense to allege something had eaten them. Hence a fictional hamster. It’s a very old Oppo thing at this point.

tree-fiddy swapped Nibbles? We're screwed.

How long has Gawker been using Kinja? Does Nibbles predate Kinja?

He went to a hamster farm upstate.

Nibbles does predate Kinja and Gawker doesn’t use Kinja, Kinja uses Gawker; it has become self-aware.

Murilee: Follow. But! Follow only if ye be men of valor, for the entrance to this cave is guarded by a creature so foul, so cruel that no man yet has fought with it and lived! Bones of full fifty men lie strewn about its lair. So, brave knights, if you do doubt your courage or your strength, come no further, for death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth.

Wert: Where?

Murilee: There!

Wert: What, behind the hamster?

Murilee: It is the hamster!

I was just thinking about that and found this. My guess is that he burrowed himself into Kinja and has begun to eat it from the inside.
