I read cracked as a comic book growing up in elementary school (yes that dates me) and now have found this website thanks to other members here. Very funny site. They also have a quite impressive social network thing going on. I have seen some sites get say 100 likes from facebook and I would be impressed. They get thousands of likes on FB for their articles. It also appears some get hundreds of diggs because they are really that funny. Check out this one with 1800 FB likes, though only read if you are one of the 12 million people that play WOW http://www.cracked.com/blog/8-questions-every-wow-fan-apparently-needs-answered/
I also would spend many an hour wasting away on this website. Funny, interesting, some laugh out loud, sometimes interesting... After a few years away ive just had a look. OMG what a waste of space. VERY poorly written articles, very poor choice of topics, bland, pathetic, and clearly under he control of the most self-hating anti-west wokista on the planet. The jokes are not funny. The 99% of stolen comments from other sites are all woke BS, the bitter self-hate of the owners comes through loud and clear. No one is clapping. No one is offering investments or phone numbers for dating. Soon this site will be another lesson in unchecked childish entitlement.

Used to be my favourite site to waste time on. I honestly don't know what happened. They fired everyone funny and just kept one briandead person to collect "funny" tweets to post. So essentially they just steal other people's jokes now, which aren't even good. To cap it off the site is such garbage it doesn't even load for like 2 minutes.
You ran a great site into the ground just put it out of its misery already.
Saw an article about Robin Williams not getting the part of hagrid because as an American they wanted an all UK cast. They couldn't help but try and take a swipe at jk Rowling, who "smoothly transitioned from adored children's author to abhorred tranphobe". This greatly took away from the actual story of the article, the author came across as a petty child with a thesaurus. Sad really but looking at other reviews, that's cracked these days
If you like vast generalizations which are unsupported by tangible evidence then you will LOVE this podcast! Also I find the social insights of the elitist, 20 something, male extremely valuable! I mean if there's one thing lacking in our society its more forums for young men, such as these, to express commentary on getting drunk at Rutgers or their hazy experiences at Burning Man. Thanks for keeping the pedestrians informed Cracked.com!
Cracked.com could have been great. It has lots of great articles, lots of giggles, and some semi-verifiable info. (hey, its no worse there than Wikipedia) But regardless the computer or device I use, the website never displays reliably. Always freezing up. If it worked it'd be a 5 star.

The articles on Cracked are both funny and informative. That's an addictive combination that can turn you into a victim of missing time! I've learned about so many off-the-wall facts and events from this awesome little time-killer. I liken the experience to hitting the "Random Article" button on Wikipedia, but more entertaining. The writers are awesome! My only possible gripe is that I'm not interested in every topic that's written about. This is really not a gripe. It's just a matter of opinion and taste, but I have to say something bad because I have an overload of karma that's been overheating my heart...
Before I became a Cracked loyalist, I only used my internet subscription for erotic entertainment. Now, I get sarcastic short stories on current events to amuse me also. Seriously, This is a worthwhile good time to read. I check it, and yahoo news daily.
I used to love this website. The articles were funny and informative. Now half the articles are political and the articles that are not have some political jabs thrown in (all one sided)
Also the store part is all sales final (cannot return defective or unsatisfactory products)
Too bad it has gone to s***. I used to read everyday, but after about 6 months of being mostly crap, it is off my saved bookmarks.
The moderators on the forums are basically self righteous fascists but that's not that uncommon so I'll only ding them a little for that even if it's a huge annoyance to me. It's slightly more annoying with them in particular since they like to act as though they are the ministers of what is acceptable on the very edge of political and social discourse. Otherwise it's a great comedy site. Maybe the best.
Once upon a time cracked was a good site, now they have stopped giving damned about people or facts. It is easy to be entertaining if you just make $#*! up, especially if you don't give a $#*! about the anything or anyone.
Cracked - Subjective humor blog/college-like and Maddoxesque humor - A variety of subject matter in the topics that are ranked, often pertaining to pop culture or current events. Very entertaining at times and typically somewhat witty. The website is mostly popular for its top "X" blog posts.
I read Cracked magazine during the late 80's and early 90's. It was a great satirical magazine with articles like "Shut-ups" and spoofs on innocent brand name characters from mainstream.
After the magazine failed, they built a website around 2005. It was fairly innocent with it's satire poking fun at movies and character flaws. Then in 2016 Donald Trump won the Republican primaries and it seemed like marxists like George Soros bought the website and now all the articles are about destroying Trump at any cost.
I don't mind jokes about politicians and Donald Trump certainly is no exception now but the writing is not even funny. It is vial and gross with no thought given to any alternative opinions. Where were all these comedians for the last 10 years?
I have been a long time fan and reader of cracked, over 10 years actually. Be it a good laugh, a genuinely interesting read or citing statistic sources to support or challenge my thoughts. I always appreciated the contributions of the comics/writers.
These times are sadly gone.
I encourage people to visit cracked and enjoy their old content but be prepared to fight through the SJW agenda minefield to find it.
It's difficult to rank this site. There's a wide range of authors, some interested in the truth and some not. Some funny and some just gross, sensational, stupid, or sexist. Overall, though, this is one of my favorite infotainment sites, because some of the authors do a great job of humorously telling you really interesting (even sometimes important!) information. Beware, though, because some flat out misrepresent the truth to make something look shocking or funny, or just to fit their topic.
So, for some authors, I give an enthusiastic 5 stars! For others, 3-4 stars. And for some: 1 star.
Used to love cracked and read it every day till they decided they didn't want to make america great again like the rest of the united states.
You lost cracked. Get over it.
When you decide to keep politics out of your posts and actually make them funny again I'll think about comming back.
Oh and by the way Trump 2020
This is a comedy site. I wouldn't ever go to it to actually look up "facts". Also it's a certain kind of comedy that appeals to certain people. For example, those who are easily offended by profanity shouldn't read it. Personally, I find it entertaining. There is a way you can sign up to actually submit your own articles, but the last time I tried it, they had done such a poor job of explaining the process that I gave up on it. They might've improved it since though.
DO NOT GO TO THIS SITE! It almost cost me my job... and my life. You don't understand, you just want to read one, but one more won't hurt. Oh, look, this one is related to the one I just read. Oh, look, its 5a.m., well, I'm not going to work today cause, shuks, I just spent all night enjoying life, damn. Seriously, when I first found this site, I posted an article on my FB page. I got one comment that scared me, so true, "hey! You just found the 'im never gunna do work again page.'" Ya, true dat.
Used to be really funny, now it's just occasionally interesting trivia and mostly far left propaganda. I can forgive the stupidity but not the lack of anything resembling comedy.
I bought some cheap jewelry from their store. I received the wrong items. I've been bugging their "support heroes" almost daily for either the right item or a refund, with zero help.
When I wish to not use a service anymore I feel I should be able to DELETE my account. Right now the only way to sort of get rid of your Cracked account is to manually remove ALL content and then deactivate it. This is ridiculous. The service should have one big red 'DELETE PROFILE' button which wipes out the entire profile and all associated content. Cracked doesn't give me enough information to delete my profile. Other services have this feature.
The site has some very funny articles it's true but it's marred by a few writers click-baiting people mostly with generalizations, liberal gate-keeping just antagonizing their readers for anger clicks. When every page has something about how games are sexist men are Terrible or or at the least clueless sexist idiots... it gets old. I have seen the results three little brothers and they come to their sister for advice over the last two years two of them have become nervous of even saying hello to a girl because thats "assault" or rude or "assuming she's there to be interacted with by them". Meanwhile my other brother has become a red pill jerk to counteract it because he needs somewhere where his basic want to have a girlfriend and flirt isn't seen as evil. If he can't go to the liberal leaning sites he'll go elsewhere. Unfortunately he picked the "alpha" crazies over at the red pill. It's not just cracked don't get me wrong a but when they can't even go to a curated humor site where can they go?
I'm considered center left in Europe and flaming liberal in the u. S and they've managed to irk me. If your reading this and any of the stuff about my brothers rings true to you then remember the fact that you realize that their is a boundary and that shes a person means they aren't talking about you. :)
Keep an open mind when you visit, very diverse forum activity and lots, I mean lots of funny stuff. Clearly one of my favorite sites.
This restaurant sucks the buns are cold everything falls into peace's not in a good way the water was bland I would not recommend this place
Witty humor and information merged into one. I never thought I'd like something like this site as I was the "boring" guy before I knew about Cracked... A bit of a warning though: when you start reading articles from Cracked, you'll become ignorant of the time.
A funny website filled with funny videos, pics, articles, and a whole bunch of other funny stuff. Cracked.com, celebrating 50 years of humor.
