“[NOT] News stories, obscure and light”

[NOT] News stories, obscure and light. - When I need a laugh or want some levity, I got to this site and read the captions for each article. If i find a story that sounds interesting I dive in. There are some crazy, stupid, fun, and exciting things happening in the world at every moment!

Top Critical Review

“A progressive's echo chamber that is way past it's "best by" date. Clickbait for outrage addicts.”

Fark has become so pathetic and hungry for page clicks, membership, and ad impressions that they recently started shadow banning posts so any affected users will be oblivious to their content being removed in the hope they will remain to generate ad revenue and free content. Most articles greenlit these days use intentionally misleading headlines that are modified by admins after submission to be as divisive as possible. Polite civil discourse is no longer allowed, its employee "moderators" regularly (and publicly) personally insult and harass users with impunity. Fark has become precisely what its creator used to mock. It once was a good place to go for a laugh or two, or an intelligent discussion on various topics, but has devolved into an echo chamber for a specific group of deluded and insecure people who refer to themselves as your "betters".

All good things come to an end. Fark's ended around the same time as Something Awful's. Administrators turned it into an echo chamber -- just like the admins of Something Awful -- where diversity of opinion was severely punished, and personality cults were strongly encouraged. It was sad to see.

Used to be a much more relaxed place. Now its full of attention whores and uptight republican types. Good for a laugh now and then but its falled from grace..
