When did philly.com become Cracked.com? But at least Cracked would write an article.- I think philly has realized it's never going to please it's whiny bitter readers so they are branching out more, with even a lighter side. they are hoping to draw more attention nationally, so they can actually find people inspiring to write for...
yes, yes...they are stuck with the philly tag, but that doesn't mean they have to become the insecure, small wee wee' d reader that has to put everything down as a preventative in case their pants ever fall down.
better to beat everyone down beneath you in case you are ever exposed, right?— MFPhils - Worry about dumb articles like this written by second rate would be journalists. These articles were rejected by the Enquirer & Globe and the rest of the supermarket tabloid publishers. Go get a job instead of pushing trash on the public.— bad joe s
- I would add to the list the scary notion that some people take Will Bunch seriously as a writer.— Jack Klompus
- This has to be the dumbest post The Inquirer has ever put up. @agamemnon - Cracked would also come up with a better, more specifically-categorical list. Inquirer: you're a newspaper - this barely counts as a thought.— PennGrad13
- Obama and his liberal agenda scares me the most.— Hobo Floto Voto
- I scared that Obama is coming to take away my guns and Bibles...Ah, just kidding. Only a lunatic would think that.— pic man
- Skylab... It's real. Don't laugh.— truthfirst
- "Alien attacks could happen." No they can't, and won't. Why? Because anything intelligent and evolved enough to be able to travel light years in a lifetime has existed peacefully long enough to not kill itself. They'll want no parts of the savages here on Earth.— Santa Satan
- You forgot the Number One threat to Americans -their government!— Konstanty
- what is a bejesus— zwarte piet
- I hate everything about this.— suporma
- this is one of the worst columns i ever read. get a real job and stop priniting this trash
- Horrible.— CoettaGarner25
- Sadly this is what the trash wants, this is what gets people to read papers. Also, don't you idiots realize this is a syndicated article that appears in several papers across the country? LOL!— Capsulef
