What Are Regular Sites You Like?

[LiddyRules]

With as much as the Internet has to offer, does anyone else find themselves stuck going to the same sites over and over again? It feels like there used to be a lot more I visited, and now it seems to grow increasingly limited either because sites change, shut down, start charging, or you lost them during a browser cleaning.

So let me throw this out there -- what are some sites you folks visit regularly?

And I'm not asking for certain categories or giving limitations, I'm just curious about regular haunts,

I got nothing. I used to read space.com somewhat regularly but how many times can you hear that we found another million galaxies.

dslreports.com (been going there longer than I've been coming here)

reddit.com

 

[crippledalbino]

I’m so boring. I go here, Twitter, slashfilm, sometimes I’ll kill some time on 4chan, I’ll play some games on kongregate. Used to do cnn for news and sports then sports got all wrapped up with bleacher report so I went to google news, but that shit changed a while ago and so I have no ‘news page’ that I visit. On my phone I’ll browse reddit.
I’ll get super bored and dream about getting into some long form article or some thread here that I never read but it usually doesn’t pan out.

A couple of the better tales on Adventure Rider.
POS Honda Pacific Coast that gets passed around to different riders all over the country.

[Sinn Fein]

I also watch alot of shit on Youtube, mostly music-related - live performances and such.

 

[Jacuzzi Billy]

Damn, this thread is just depressing.

 

[weeniewawa]

mostly weather sites and youtube.

road condition sites for the states I am in

calguns.org

and a couple of other gun sites unless I am kicked off of them

maybe the HAMB or other automotive forums

There is so much content there I usually stick to my regional forum, but there are usually like 2 or 3,000 people on there at any given time

Probably on of my favorite sites.
I've joined in on several rides over the years and all have been great fun full of interesting people.
BUTT ride in Texas I met a giant crane operator from Australia and a lawyer and custom stair builder from Alaska and a Canadian sailor heading on a solo trip to South America while the hosts were Texas tourism officials.
SLAP ride was a bunch of drunks from all walks including a redheaded glamazon chick that was a liter bike rider.

Great times.

Youtube reddit, various news sites from links like The Guardian, Mary sue, The Verge. I go everywhere from different links, but not a regular anywhere.

 

[LiddyRules]

I’ll get super bored and dream about getting into some long form article or some thread here that I never read but it usually doesn’t pan out.

There are so many long articles that I started, bookmarked, saved in a tab, etc. that I never got to go back to. Especially on the phone.

I got nothing. I used to read space.com somewhat regularly but how many times can you hear that we found another million galaxies.

That's part of it too. There's a learning curve with a lot of things where no matter how many times you read articles about a certain subject, you realize you're never going to make that leap beyond discussing it on a purely basic level.

I also watch alot of shit on Youtube, mostly music-related - live performances and such.

I have YouTube and Wackbag. There's nothing I've ever really been a fan of for that long like OnA where I built any kind of rapport with it's members. I'm on Reddit often but rarely comment. Diverging from leftist dogma gets you voted into obscurity. I tried commenting on the South Jersey forum about our dogshit Governor but everyone just loves him there.

Twitter is just about as dumb as Reddit.

 

[THE FEZ MAN]

Just wackbag and hugbook, if I see something of interest their I might research it, I do spend a lot of time on YouTube but rarely comment.
I also have a bad habit of going to amazon and reading the bad reviews on products, I often wonder about people who post bad comments, mainly what would satisfy them? You knowingly order a chink knock off tool or item, and it breaks 6 months later and you’re “outraged” really?

I was a lurker on here and the O&A subreddit from 2012 or so. The subreddit was good because of all the O&A content and people were actually talking about the show.

Wackbag was in the process of morphing into a film review and political board with most members becoming bored with or even anti O&A. At the time I preferred Reddit. It was endless Opie smashing, whereas, on here, everybody was already tired of that.

Then the sub got properly cancerous in 2015 or so. I realised that Opie, AntH and the majority of the fans were complete twats and stopped listening to them or talking about them.

The sub keeps growing though. When I was a regular, they had 11,000 subscribers. Now, they have nearly 27,000. #O&AAlwaysWinInTheEnd

 

[Jacuzzi Billy]

WWTDD shut down? I used to check it occasionally.

 

[Bobobie]

I'm listening to Anthony's show via RSS pretty infrequently now. I'm so backed up on shows that I just listen whatever is most current.

 

[BIV]

Lots of Youtube. I'm usually haunting a couple specific game message boards and discords, mostly Stellaris and Boundless right now.


Most of the sites I used to visit went so douchebag lefty that I can't stand them anymore.

 

[jnoble]

Joshreads.com

Its like MST3K for newspaper comic strips with reader participation in the comment section. Its one of the first things I look at when I get up in the morning and turn on my phone and gives me some great LOL's

 

[LiddyRules]

I use seriouseats.com for most of my recipes. Not only is it varied and informative, it puts the ungodly long, "why are you telling me about your grandmother?" narrative that all other recipe sites feel compelled to include on a completely different page from the actual recipe.
