DUDE… In my freshman year at Texas A&M I took a radio class that gave us studio time. This was live ClearChannel radio for my entire town. When I ran out of stuff to say, I would go on Fark and start reading the news.

You are the first person I’ve ever heard mention this site, since 2006. Crazy nostalgia right now!

Nice! Fark still exists but I only look at it a couple times a year now. It's like if there was a single reddit sub or lemmy community called "Miscellaneous". Weird Fark memory - for photoshop contests I made a hobby of putting Wil Wheaton into images.
