Gawker is blocked at my work, while Deadspin and Jalopnik aren't.

Thank You, Benevolent Work God.

You're already outside of NYC, right?

You're good, then. As far as they're concerned, you don't exist.

I'm not going to get into it because I'm typically a pretty laid back dude, but I absolutely hate the race topic because double, triple, and quadruple standards seem to be the norm in that realm. I swear I could write a novel on that.

I accidentally commented on a Jez article the other day while drunk. I'm still getting really rather vile rants coming in, I think just because I had the temerity to comment there with a man's name.

oh man I'm sorry to hear that

I am not sure if I could ever cross that line. They'd have to write some article like "men who buy 29 year old bmw's that sat in the woods for 6 years and smell like mold are revolting sexist pigs" then maybe I'd say something.

To be fair, you did tell them to bring it on, you were ready.

Stupidru > offroadkarter

Is there a brief synopsis of what all of the Gawker sites stand for?

For instance:

-Kotaku: Nerds

-Gawker: Racists

-Jezebel: Feminists

-Jalopnik FP: Asshole car people who judge you based on what you drive

Men who smell like mold, or who buy mold-smelling BMWs? Not that there's any relation between the two.

Personally, I'd wait on the study on men who inherit 50 year old Rovers that sat in the woods for 15+ years. Then I'd go post something piggish, sexist and revolting, because I gotta be me.

well the men who buy moldy smelling BMW's will later smell of mold as a result, so take it either way

I commented on a Gawker article about the TSA a few months ago. It won't happen again.

You forgot Deadspin, Gizmodo, io9 and lifehacker.

06/04/2014 at 16:30

its all about being politically correct....

and honestly it seems like the people who get offended the worst over racist comments are these young millennial liberal hipster types (you know, the ones who make up 95% of gawker).

"You can't say that, thats racist you bigot!" - 20 something year old hipster working for a startup tech company based in manhattan who was born into an upper-middle class family.

replace the black guy who filmed this video with a white guilt millennial from gawker and this video would have been 7 hours of arguing between a stripper and a hipster.

offroadkarter > Stupidru
06/04/2014 at 16:31

In a nutshell, yeah.

what is gizmodo, tech nerds if kotaku is gaming nerds? I don't follow either one very close to know how their "commenter culture" is because they don't do anything that warrants looking into.

offroadkarter > macanamera
06/04/2014 at 16:32

I have a friend who works for the TSA, he always gets a kick out of reading anything TSA related on any of the gawker media sites.

Did you know they get pet dental insurance?

That's the thing, I didn't even disagree with anything or anyone. Had a brief and non-crazy conversation with someone. Since then I've had truly nasty comments from some clearly-crazies. One person sent me about twenty replies that were all different, apparently individually typed but very minor variations on 'you are shit and should be flushed down the toilet'.

Just don't do it.

offroadkarter > RamblinRover Luxury-Yacht
06/04/2014 at 16:34

that, actually yes...

I think somewhere we need an official beginners guide to the gawkersphere for people new around here.

Well there's your problem. To be fair though, I got ripped pretty good over bullshit semantics on io9 .

Wow.

You know studies from top men show that a majority of feminists are feminists because they have to blame men for not finding them attractive so they counter with the whole "you're all sexist pigs who are oppressing us" and take to sites like jezebel.

When was the last time you heard a smokin hot blond with DD's go online and rant about how men are oppressing her? Most attractive/smart women know they can get any guy they want and use that to their advantages in a relationship.

davedave1111 > offroadkarter
06/04/2014 at 16:42

Nah, that's complete bullshit. Jezebel isn't anything to do with feminism. It's a sorority.

I've known some proper feminists - in fact, I'm pretty feminist myself, if the word's being used right - and many of them have been smoking hot. Including some of my exes, because I like strong women who are proud of who they are. None of them would have anything to do with the Jezzies, except perhaps to scorn them with great style.

offroadkarter > davedave1111
06/04/2014 at 16:45

theirs two types of feminists from what I've seen

The ones who want equal rights for both sexes

and the ones who want an advantage between the two

I think you can guess which one jezebel is.

and for the record I have nothing against say, a man and a woman making equal pay in the same job, its pretty stupid if/that they don't. But don't call me a womanizer if I want to buy a ferrari!

davedave1111 > offroadkarter
06/04/2014 at 16:48

Nah, there are actual feminists, and idiots/crazies who blatantly abuse the term. Jez is the latter, because they have nothing whatsoever to do with empowering women.

By the way, the 'gender pay gap' stuff is nonsense. Women of equal experience actually tend to get paid better than men. We have a motherhood (or parenthood) pay gap, but that's very different - valid discrimination based on realities, rather than unfair discrimination.

well thankfully the car has been cleaned so many times with hospital strength antibacterial cleaner, it just smells like "old car" now

you know that generic smell all really old vintage cars get?

offroadkarter > davedave1111
06/04/2014 at 16:51

women of equal experience...

You mean like when GM hired the auto industries first ever female CEO and everyone (including jezebel and jalopnik) was going on about how she was getting paid less than her male predecessor, until a few weeks later when GM released her entire pay info and it turned out she was actually making way more?

and I didn't hear a peep from jezebel after that happened?

duurtlang > Stupidru
06/04/2014 at 16:59

Jezebel isn't just about feminists as there's nothing wrong with feminists in general. Jezebel is filled with foaming at the mouth man hating professional victims.

The most important words there were 'tend to'. One example is merely a story, many make data.

Well there's a fundamental problem with what you just said... hipsters don't believe they're hipsters, and will fight you to the death on what a hipster really is and how they're different. And you can't say black, and even African American is borderline racist because Africa is a broad spectrum of classifications and they could be Indian, Jamaican, Brazilian, French, or any other nationality. It's not fair to classify people on their nationality, didn't you know? That's racial profiling.

being a hipster is to mainstream, they just wear those thick frame glasses and skinny jeans because its ironic
