Clickhole is the best.
Here is, in my opinion, their best article:

And here is, in many other people’s opinion (its 2nd best for me), their best article:

Whaaaaaaaaaaat!
the daddy one was better. It reminded me of that podcast welcome to nightvale, where things sound normal at first and get progressively more disturbing. Feasting on mother's shattered China lol! I saved it
The second one was really good too. it reminds me of some of the better insult call-out threads here. If it had more horror in it I would have been convinced it was written by styg. -

Daddy’s Home is a very bizarre one for Clickhole because there’s pretty much no humor in it and it’s really straight up horror. Lol. A lot of Clickhole is really just absolute nonsense, but funny nonsense. The fat suit one is just a very well constructed giant insult, so yeah, it would work very well as a call out thread. Some of the Clickhole writers have gone on to write for SNL (however much that’s worth, but it’s worth a lot in the popular entertainment world). It used to be owned by The Onion but just got sold to Cards Against Humanity. They’ve been radio silent for the last few months since they were bought and I’m very worried CAH is going to screw it up because it’s seriously the funniest site on the planet.

I liked the onion, you introduced that to me too. Years back.
I thought the daddy one was hilarious though! I think the humor is just the bizarre aspect of it. But I love that stuff. I looked for where it gave the name of the writer but couldn't find it.
When they described him putting his skin robe over his, many, many ribs
I heard the whole thing in this guy's voice
Hopefully cah won't ruin it -

that’s a good voice for Daddy (no relation) because it’s a bit soulless and sounds like it’s bringing unapologetic death to anyone within earshot.
None of the writers’ names for Clickhole are published. Any of the names that they list as the “author” of the articles is just part of the schtick. So I don’t know how anyone there gets recognition - it must just be insider knowledge. Like, you would probably have to call Clickhole and ask them who wrote specific things and they probably wouldn’t tell you anyway unless you had a real reason to know. And we thought the TWD board was cliquey. -

Lol when I kept reading "daddy" i did think of dilf and daddy -this daddy is terrifying and I think even Brittany wouldn't go near him!
that is even worse than us!! But I kind of like it. From the pov of the writer it probably feels nice when thier story gets a bunch of hits, and positive feedback. No one can say it's just popular because they're popular -that's why Stephen king wrote a bunch of books under pennames after he got famous.
I figured it out, it's Stephen king -

Probably. That’s very commendable of him to use pen names. You can’t get honest feedback once you’re famous. That is actually the ultimate sock challenge - create a sock whose popularity surpasses your main account.

that's genius!
I heard a dragqueen named Sharon stone say that they picked that name because they wanted to become so famous that when you searched for Sharon stone they're come up first lol
I don't know. It felt related -

Don’t troll my Bee! She’s dead sexy and cool and you know it! I am the least sexy person on filmboards. I’m the house-mother of filmboards, very similar to Mrs. Garrett from the Facts of Life! And I take pride in that!
