Some other big changes coming to Nice Price or Crack Pipe in a few days. Actually the big change is that we are renaming the posts to “ Good Buy or Goodbye ” since drug references are so passé these days.

Seems fine...

I’m sure all the cars featured will still be about twice what I think they’re worth

Yeah, this some dumb shit. I know it's G/O, not Rob, but it's a mistake. And he's going to pay the consequences with lower engagement numbers.

I’m chastened someone who assumed the professional identity “Graverobber” was lacking impeccable taste to begin with.

I was not aware that crack was politically incorrect

You guys read the front page?

I thought about this earlier , for about 11 seconds, and I am guessing that the inference that the seller is a drug addict is what they are trying to distance themselves from.

I vote for “ Nice Price or Crack(ed windshield) Price.”

Makes sense to me. We can find other ways to be edgy.

People will probably be voting CP in the comments for years.

Nice Price or Crack Pipe was started by Murlee Martin, The Godfather of crap cars.

How deep of a hole will the front page dig before it finally dies?

So this is where the effort goes while the comment sections make Youtube look like a Nobel laureate convention. Sounds right.

What a weird thing t o change. I get that “drugs are bad” but that’s kind of the point, isn’ t it? To associate an undesirable or overpriced car with something bad?

Kinda r eminds me of the controversy surrounding the original Doom game having satanic content, when t hat was the whole point- the demons were the bad guys and you were fighting against them.

Gotta admit, I’m surprised they didn’t just cancel it like all the other daily/weekly engagement features because of non-pc title.

Traffic Jams (as Steph picked up on) , Answer of the Day (C ounter steer kind of holds on) , Comment of the Day, Friday Afternoon hang-out and AMA. There’s more I’ve forgotten.

The first FP query popping up on google for me is “What happened to Jalopnik?”

People know FP has become but a husk of the site it once was. Even going with the societal rage bait they’re not pulling in 2019 clicks. People have noticed that most of the female writers bounced. They are sick of the Kinja bugs, sick of the increasingly intrusive ads, and a good portion feel alienated by ideological publishing and associated dictive comments.

I give them 3 years before they further downsize and become a subsection on Giz.

So I’m late to this news

The writers and editors are a bunch of D.A.R.E. goody-two-shoes who are scared of drugs lmao
