Gizmodo, which consists almost entirely of cell phone press releases these days, is really pandering to a lowest common denominator.
In this recent post about a pink hard drive, they suggest buying one is second only to squeezing a ripe pear of tittles (sic) in celebrating Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
I thought a few more flags would go up, but most of the commenters explicitly state their appreciation for this droll writing.
Squeezing a ripe pair! LOL Another reason why I love this site. My wife would love the drive though.
This guy’s married! Doesn’t take much to get a laugh out of some people these days.
But, by far the worst sentiment was posted by MAARK
I like perky and healthy ones, thanks. Not diseased and cut-off ones.
Jesus. I mean… Jesus. It’s the written equivalent of hocking a loogie on your palm and offering to shake someone’s hand.
I used to love Gizmodo back in the day when Joel Johnson was writing it. Now it’s just quantity over quality with around the clock press releases and iPhone photoshop jobs. I’m sure they’re making a boatload off advertising revenue, but I’ll be deleting them off my RSS reader.
P.S.
Joel is now writing the consistently interesting Boing Boing Gadgets
