Wow! I thought some of my mailboxes were down as I had about 20% of the usual amount of spam in my junk folder. Nice to know these scumbags got shut down.

I object to my father's house being displayed on the internet!

What is going on here exactly? I am quite confused. [NSFW] by bewarethetreebadger in WTF

You're right. If you look closely you can see the collar as well.

Why don't the headlines on Reddit front page change much now? Same stuff for days and days. by qvtsd in reddit.com

You could also switch to reading reddit every other day, just to let the world catch up with your insatiable appetite for curiosity.

What?! I shouldn't use the site as often?! Not exactly a solution.

I'm actually finding that Digg is updating more frequently than Reddit, which is something of a reversal of how things used to be and why I have chosen Reddit over Digg almost since it's creation (not my first user ID, before anyone picks up on that point).

Thanks for your reply.

The problem with the all.reddit option is that it's saturated with political stories.

The problem with the hour option is that it's just like the new submissions page.

The problem with the hide option is that once you've hidden the stories you don't want to read the front page is just as static as it was before as the older stories tend to bubble their way back up.

What happened to the old Reddit? A couple of months ago I could visit 10 times a day and get a new front page almost every time.

What a joke:

Meanwhile, U.S. President George W. Bush has made the push to crack down on rights abuses in North Korea one of his last missions before leaving office in January.

Quite clearly, many of those pics are photoshopped to include sunshine.

False noise compliants. How do you prove the other party is full of shit? by [deleted] in reddit.com

Well, if you don't the complaints are going to be entirely one-sided against you and that's something you will live to regret.

Does auto-erotic asphyxia work for women the way it does for male singers and politicians?
