Oppo, a good website and the only place for not-fake news, along with it s daughter site Jalopnik, is not bankrupt, because it has no revenue stream. This made bad people mad, and those bad people went to Road & Track , a magazine owned by a despot that lives in a literal castle.

Here are some bad tweets by these traitors.

UPDATE: 6 p.m. ET:

The best part of people crossposting the worst of Kinja is the parody posts.

I’m not going to blame Sorokanich, I found his “early work” when rereading R&T’s 1997 50th anniversary issue recently. I submitted stuff like this as a kid with dreams of automotive design or journalism careers myself, so good on him for making it. I’m here though, so I...win?

Did he also dream of stabbing Nick Denton in the back? -_-

I now realize this is a parody of the stupid Gawker post that I’m not going to read on the front page, but would certainly hope he doesn’t dream of Nick Denton at all.

I worked for a sister-company under the Hearst umbrella when Travis joined R&T...so I guess we were “coworkers” at some point?

But then I left...so I’m no longer a bad man?

Some of them were even cruel enough to come back to celebrate the demise of Gawker:

yeah, don’t bother reading it . the lead sentence starts “Gawker, a good website” which is just false. Gawker was what you would get if you told a crowd of 14-year-olds to make a news site about what they think is important.

I witnessed a man putting ketchup on pizza last week. I was also informed that certain people put ketchup on pasta. Inwould say they should be thrown in a gulag for these transgressions, but that would be highly offensive.

Surprisingly I love the show but was really disappointed with the book when I read it. I suppose it’s because the author died and had planned on sequels.. But it really was just so much less interesting to me for whatever reason.

I mean if it was Dominos or something of that nature, the sauce is basically kethcup anyways. Its like putting ketchup on well done steak; it was ruined already might as well at least taste like ketchup instead since that is pala table.

My roommate in college used to put ketchup on pasta and Jesus it made me cringe.

It wasn’t, it was a good local place with NYC style pizza.

Ugh. I don’t put mayonnaise on pizza...

...but I would try it, not gonna lie. Ketchup, though? Yuck. Hot sauce or GET OUT.

ketchup just fine on mac & cheese.

Try this one out: over-easy egg.

I first had it at a pizza joint in Mira, Italy (small town outside Venice). It was a cheese pizza with a piece of white asparagus on each slice and an over easy egg in the middle. It’s amazing.

I make a lot of my own pizza, and I’ll sometimes put a fried egg on top of a slice for breakfast.

It has to be good pizza, though. It would probably suck on bad pizza.

I’m not a big fan of runny eggs, believe it or not. They’re okaaaaaay, but the trend of adding them to stuff just flies over my head.

Gotta try an egg on a nice medium rare burger with bacon, avocado, and a nice spicy BBQ sauce. Then it’s just right!

I’m assuming that pizza had to be eaten with knife and fork? That seems to be the norm in Italy anyways. I was confused by that and just used the knife and fork to cut my pizza into slices. Then picked them up and ate. Guess it was a good thing it was an outdoor casual place, I probably looked like a foreigner doing that haha.

Ha, I don’t eat bacon or avocado, either . I am immune to your food trends, fellow kid s!

(Until you whip out pimiento cheese or pickled onions as the next big thing, at least. )

I mean, the market’s garbage right now, so there’s that, but places definitely don’t have that “ inability” to hire other people at similar rates.
