Being Christmas Eve I remembered this little piece from last year, who else was around for this?

Some boring arse taking a light hearted slogan too seriously. Not to mention they obviously hate cars and went out of their way to troll on a car focused website...

Edit: I now realise that was a gawker contributor. I still stand by my statement of them being a boring arse.

This year, they're going to suggest ironing boards for Jezebel, chess boards for Kotaku, and treadmills for Deadspin (you know, since it's a lot safer than those barbaric things they call sports).

This was a big deal around here last year, Gawker did gift guides for all of their sites and trolled us only, Mr. George did the honorable thing.

I dont think they did it this year and it probably has something to do with this

I must have missed it, I only really became really active on here earlier this year. Although I've read jalopnik for a couple years now. It was a good reply from Patrick haha.

This kind of stuff winds me up, blaming car guys for all manner of issues. It's especially funny when I get anything aimed at me for being a car guy, about the environment and what not, since my car is more economical than a Prius...

Trolls are meant to be funny.

That incident wasn't funny. Thank the Lord for Patrick George.

Hey, that rhymed!

I remember this. I still want to punch J.K. Trotter in the face.

....shit, I actually did request an ironing board this year. I left my old one behind when I moved out of my LA apartment, and given the body type preferences of the area I can only assume someone is now using it as a makeshift love doll.

Merry Christmas!

IIRC, he deleted a lot of comments, including the entire thread Matt's was in.
