Stop ๐Ÿ‘ Buying ๐Ÿ‘ New ๐Ÿ‘ Shit ๐Ÿ‘

Please do. But keep in mind, when I invariably get jump-scared by your infotainment system and crack my head on the car ceiling, I'm going to turn your revenue stream into my personal early retirement pension.

I mean fark.com is still kicking, last I checked. I feel like some of these old sites are the web equivalent of BIFL products.
