• If a kid being sent to one of those "kidnap you in the night" bootcamps kills someone during the kidnap, is it self defense?

  Yes. There are a lot of them, and they are popular in Utah, and the Dominican Republic. Its for parents who think their kids is out of control because they take drugs, or hang around the wrong people, or don't want to go to church, or date the wrong person, or aren't getting good enough grades, or are manifesting behaviour because of trauma, or come out as gay (this is a common one, they are usually religious...

• I need a game where you can commit financial fraud.

  Can I interest you in Eve Online? That link takes you to a cracked.com article about how one guy scammed folks out of millions of dollars. Source: 8 months ago

• People hate guns until they find themselves in a situation where they needed one.

  I really had no idea how bad the suicide stat was until cracked.com brought it up years ago (when it was good). It was somethign like nearly half or more gun deaths were straight suicides. Source: 11 months ago

• Does anyone else feel a lot younger than their peers?

  Like why would I want to watch Breaking Bad or any serious drama when I already lived serious drama all through childhood? Jokes and silliness or I turn it off. Firefly or House MD are about my limit for serious entertainment. And my favorite news channel is one of those old cracked.com comedy writers on YouTube. Source: 11 months ago

• Did you think you could have survived if project zomboid was real?

  The rotting thing is a point ignored by almost all zombie medium. Of course, getting around the initial "dead thing can walk" is a pretty big leap in itself. There's a hilarious article (or there used to be at least) on cracked.com named something like "10 Reasons a Zombie Apocalypse Would Fail (quickly)" and rotting was reason #1 or 2. Best line from the whole article though was "We (humans) are a zombie's... Source: 11 months ago

• BuzzFeed News Is Shutting Down

  I can only imagine their disappointment when buzzfeed.com still pops up with their quizzes and "news" about the Kardashians. Source: about 1 year ago

• Get it Together!!

  From what buzzfeed.com? Is that what the quiz told you? Source: about 1 year ago

• BuzzFeed, after gutting its newsroom, asks reporters to produce even more — Meanwhile, the company's stock is struggling, revenue is in free fall, and editorial ambitions remain hazy

  The terrible part is they completely poisoned the name "buzzfeed" because buzzfeednews.com (not buzzfeed.com) does some amazing journalism. Among other stories they are the ones who received the leaked "FinCen Files" which showed that FinCen (the US govt agency in charge of monitoring suspicious financial transactions) was basically not doing anything and money laundering was freely happening under their watch and...

• Algeria, and the relationship between lead and iq

  You're focusing on the wrong side effect of lead, studies have shown that exposure to lead in the air increases violence and crimes, and the effect can last up to 20 years. I'm more concerned about that than some arbitrary whimsical IQ test on buzzfeed.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• Buzzfeed shouldn’t be suggested as a news site

  If I type in "nytimes.com" right now, I get news stories and midterm analysis first. If I type in "buzzfeed.com" the main story is "I Apologize In Advance, But Non-Americans Think These 18 American Foods Are Absolutely 'Disgusting”. You have to click on the logo and find your way over to Buzzfeed news, which to me at least, would suggest their news section is of secondary importance and isn't the main component of...
