I'm 99% sure Hiddles is a marketing tool developed with a finely-tuned, complex algorithm designed to sell... I don't know, panties? Sex toys? Shakespeare boxed sets?

Did you possibly mean THIS ONE?
I have tickets to see him in Hamlet in exactly 364 days. Third row.
I'll go when they have a golden retriever named Tom Hiddleston.
Ahaha, some of them are trying to claim to me that "mean" stuff gets said on those sites too. Y'all, it is one thing to have someone call you an asshat for thinking Johnny Football is not the next Tim Tebow, it is entirely another to be responded to with rape threats or rape gifs, and have folks choosing usernames of…
Oh, fuck off with this. If I were getting repeatedly harassed at my workplace, my employer would take measures to ensure the harassers were removed and prevented from returning. I'm not a delicate, wilting flower that needs to be protected, but I'm also not some ragdoll that you get to toss around whenever you feel…
Don't even, dude.
I know. It's honestly disturbing. It's unsettling to be victimized by his commenting system just as a commenter, but to be victimized by it as an employee? I feel like there's a degree of deliberate cruelty involved.
I was working here when we got rid of the banhammer. I knew what would follow, voiced my opinion, nothing. But worse than that was getting rid of the pink approval process. A few years ago you had to be let in by someone. That was key to keeping out spammers (which is also a problem around here) & assholes that like…
This is the first time in years that I've actively wanted to link someone to goatse. Thank you for giving me back a piece of my childhood.
This lack of action is the most naked look we've had yet of Nick Denton's sociopathy.
I'll be frank: I've been doing a lot of the behind the scenes complaining about this from my end because that's the only thing I can do. As some of you might know, I started out as a mod and worked my way up. I've seen a lot of shit, even with the old system in place (and not just from one site - I modded all the…
Was the trollpatrol also responsible for reporting posts for disemvoweling? God, I miss that, too. Or should I say: Gd mss tht.
I think they've actually gotten one or two good tips out of burners, to be honest. But it seems a lot of chaff for so little wheat, you know?
If there is even the slightest chance that some whistle-blower will wander into one of the Gawker sites and leave a tip that leads to Denton being interviewed on the morning shows, increasing page views and ad dollars, and being fêted by the media elites (while swearing he'll never sell Gawker), NOTHING will change.
In NO OTHER PROFESSIONAL INDUSTRY is it acceptable to let your workers be subjected to repeated, targeted pornography and violence. I have NEVER worked a job staffed by the kind of people who would stand idly by — it would be one fat lawsuit after another up everyone's asshole and an HR nightmare, to boot.
