Have you visited boing boing in the last few years? It’s literal cancer.
- MerelyMortal 5y agoI used to visit it regularly until about a decade ago, but I felt too many of the posts were unnecessarily getting too political.
- MerelyMortal 5y agoI just checked out their website. It looks vastly different. It used to be mostly technical posts, and the logo even had a girl in overalls turning a wrench. The types of posts look like it has greatly changed over the years. I'm curious as to why I was downvoted. I understand why the other person was downvoted ("literal cancer"). Oh well.
- ramraj07 5y agoWhen I visited it last time, they tried to sell me a 100 dollar virus scanner app for my iPhone [1] so yeah I wasn’t exaggerating much. I’d much rather have Hodgkins Lymphoma than that site lol. https://boingboing.net/2021/09/19/clean-up-your-storage-on-your-apple-device-with-over-100-off-this-top-rated-app.html https://boingboing.net/2021/09/19/clean-up-your-storage-on-y...
- chrisweekly 5y agowtf is wrong with you. Do you know anyone with literal cancer? Use different words.
- ramraj07 5y agoLanguage evolves. Literal clearly doesn’t just mean what literal literally meant a few decades back. It’s especially poetic when you’re using it in jest. Get over it? Also who doesn’t know someone with cancer? 1 in 3 dies of it. Except for kids dying of brain cancer I don’t see what’s especially horrendous about it. As a matter of fact I’d much rather die of cancer than a brain aneurysm. Give me time to set my things in order?
