The Modern Rogue has been around for some time now. It features the dude from Scam School. You know, the YT dude with spiky hair that used to do little bar tricks for free drinks. I thought that was neat back in the day.

Re: Cracked is crumbling
From what I remember from reading discussions about him, the real reason was much more boring. Apparently 'David' is the most common first name in the world and 'Wong' is the most common surname but he claims you'll never find someone with both names.ChangeTheChunnel wrote: ↑Mon Oct 08, 2018 4:08 pmThere was an interview he did years ago where he was asked about his pen name.

Not only is he extremely wrong, there are people with that name who are more accomplished than him.Keith Chegwin wrote: ↑Wed Oct 10, 2018 9:25 pmFrom what I remember from reading discussions about him, the real reason was much more boring.

Although I wouldn't put it past him for the real reason to have been to get a little of those "diversity" hiring points, like Ward Churchill. Asian obviously isn't worth as much as Native American or black, but in an office of liberal arts shitlibs who feel their workplace is "too white", the kind of place Cracked absolutely was, it'll get the job done nicely.
Re: Cracked is crumbling
I've heard all the stuff about Wong being a white guy with a fake Asian name for years. Nobody on his side ever pulls out the "cultural appropriation" card ever, so chances are it's not gonna stick.
If Wong gets SJWd out it's gonna be because he's a sex pest or a wife beater like his butt buddies Sargent and Cheese. How can you have a staff full of people like that and not know unless you're in on it yourself? Plus, his article "10 Ways Society Teaches Men to Hate Women" reads like a Evangelical preacher giving a sermon about how the devil tempts everyone into gay sex when it's pretty clear it's just him.

Re: Cracked is crumbling
He admitted it years ago with John Cheese (where they basically swapped ethnicity names). The difference being that he started virtue signaling long before it was cool in an attempt to bury himself as a target way down the list. It also helps that he sucks as a writer, so there isn't as much of a reward to take him down.
...and still: Spoony did nothing.
Re: Cracked is crumbling
All of them suck as writers. At least Wong wrote an actual book that I think sold reasonably well. Well enough to make a crappy indie movie anyway. What do the rest of them have?Tony Schiavone wrote: ↑Wed Oct 17, 2018 3:48 pmHe admitted it years ago with John Cheese (where they basically swapped ethnicity names).

Re: Cracked is crumbling
I was re-reading some of my favorite Seanbaby articles when I noticed most of the profanity has been censored since I was last on Cracked. Like blowjob was censored as b*****b and it took me a really long time to figure out that was the intended word. It isn't just his articles, either. Or maybe the censorship has always been here and I'm just imagining things. Either way it's stupid.
Re: Cracked is crumbling
Censoring words on the internet it stupid. Even the normalfags on Fagbook are fairly profane. We're not Hollywood TV shows trying to pretend we aren't degenerate, theres no point in hiding how people speak anymore.
