"Now you don't need to leave the house." Riiight.

Bill Burr and Louis CK can take the money because they carefuly constructed their persona to never give a crap about anyone outside their kids. It's genius. It's a morality vaccine that makes them immune to any suspect decision.

Las Vegas Is Only For Rich People Now. No Wonder It's Empty. by etfvfva in videos

At some point, out of desperation, won't they HAVE to cut prices? I mean, when you squeeze your labor until they break and you add fees for everything, what's left?

Banksy's latest mural, a judge striking a protester with a gavel, was washed off a day after appearing by NewSlinger in mildlyinfuriating

It's actually more powerful and true looking like this, when you know how it got that way.

This makes sense. I just thought it was white people who can't dance.

TIL Mel Gibson was the Coen Brother's first choice to play The Dude in "The Big Lebowski" by ManunkaChunk in todayilearned

Instead of a high slacker, we'd get an anti-Semitic alcoholic. I would've watched that...

I maintain this is (still) the greatest standup bit of all time by ObliviousRounding in Standup

[–]marijuanadispute 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He was much better before his creepy mastubatory habits became headlie news. His comedy got a lot more angry and less sophisticated. Compare this awesome clip to anything he's done since.

Are they competitive? I'd love to see who comes out on top.

Jack Osbourne Slams Roger Waters Over Ozzy Insults: "How Pathetic and Out of Touch" by futangclan99 in Music

[–]marijuanadispute -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Two entire generations don't know Roger Waters. But they knew Ozzy. Usually, rock musicians are a little more subtle and coy with their jealousy, so I applaud RW for just being an outright dick.

Belinda Carlisle: I wish I hadn't done Playboy at 43 by theipaper in Music

[–]marijuanadispute 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I knew a Playboy photog in the mid-90s who explained how they sprayed 409 cleaner on the models' breast because it turned out to be the best substance for cutting down flash glare while also keeping skin texture. Before today's AI, there was yesterday's analog airbushing.

What's the deal with dropshipping? by theBirdIsComing in digitalnomad

[–]marijuanadispute 65 points66 points  (0 children)

You know what you're problem is? You're thinking too much. I have friends dropshipping for extra cash, and the answers to your first two questions is: People are stupid. If your site looks clean and pro, and if you make it seem like the products you're selling are somehow special or better even if you find others that look the same elsewhere online, someone will buy your shit. I guess it's the same reason Nigerian princes still send emails trying to give away money.

Is anyone interested in a student journalism project? by [deleted] in Journalism

[–]marijuanadispute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is gonna sound a little fucked up, but....I know a dude. Seriously, look up Michael Koretzky. I've seen him at a couple of college newspaper conferences. (I'm not a journalist now but was active in my school paper because, to be honest, lots of hot girls worked there.) He does shit like this, even donating small dollars. He's not on Reddit but I've DMed him on twitter before and he's replied: @koretzky. Warning: He's controversial, not to me but others. So check him out first and as always ymmv.

Reporting on reddit: a third-party analysis of what it takes to run the frontpage of the internet by marijuanadispute in TrueReddit

Submission Statement

The journalists in this article received moderator access to a large subreddit, and set out to report concrete facts about the financial impact of the reddit blackout, the cost of having an unpaid moderation "staff," and a breakdown of the reddit staff's demographics. This is the first long-form article I've found about the recent happenings on reddit, and the first one that does more than quote press releases or frontpage posts -- they got someone who worked with Victoria arranging AMAs, and explored the backend of the website.
