    Old internet to me is straight up pointlesswasteoftime.com, which eventually got absorbed by Cracked like a cheap suppository after David Wong (aka mediocre comedy writer Jason Pargin) sold out. That was in 2007. And now Cracked is functionally a content graveyard.

    I'll have you know that Cracked is the number one source for shitty listicles that were generated by running a /r/AskReddit thread through an AI.

    I assume, at least. Haven't actually visited cracked since before 2010 probably.
