Well this is a little janky but it could work. Let me just click on new replies....

The “claim your account” thing never worked for me - it seemed like it did, but when I tried to actually post a comment, it wanted me to login, which I tried to do and nothing happened and oh god fuck everything

Seeing the AV Club up there on that top bar along with the other Gawker sites chills me to the bone.

I'm having fun repeatedly clicking the button, though. It's like one of those clicker games!
