Ew. Just ew. Their editorials are hot garbage but probably THE worst part is their archaic subscription practice, which is an outright scam! Once subscribed there is no way to cancel it online, they don't even take email, you have to actually call them to cancel. And if you live outside of the US, well good luck finding the proper line.
Imagine owning a huge ass news corporation with their own mobile app, and yet they STILL don't give people the option to cancel their subscription via web or app. That's Wall Street Journal for ya.

Get the Wall Street Journalmug. A time that gets some people freaked out, as it's rumored to be cursed. By deductive reasoning, those who are scared most likely have normal sleep schedules.
Meanwhile when night owls see 3am, they just shrug and go back to doing their own thing.

Normal person at 3am: *loud creaky noise* Oh shit what was that?! Oh god it's 3:00 AM...
Me, a night owl, at 3am: *loud creaky noise* Meh. *goes back to playing Valorant*

Get the 3:00 AMmug. A word you say to convey that you are in a predicament. Basically the same thing as "in a pickle", but instead of pickle you say schnitzel.
I am in a real schnitzel right now, I can't decide whether to have schnitzel or chicken wings for dinner!

Get the Schnitzelmug. The way that most humans naturally self-learned to wipe their asses. If you don't, then you're weird.
The only possible reason for wiping front to back is if your parents harshly disciplined you about it, otherwise you'd be instinctively wiping back to front like any other normal human world.

Get the kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkmug. Dunno what everyone else here is on about. Khan Academy is a cool dude who makes useful math videos and probably does a better job at explaining stuff than your boring high school math teacher. Otherwise, why would you be watching him?
It's actually quite ironic if you think about it, a few years ago people are praising him as a better alternative to your crappy math teacher, now people are shitting on the dude that provides FREE math tutorials. Sure, he might take longer to explain things, but the fact that he takes his time, as well as having an optimistic tone of voice, means that he genuinely cares about you and the subject. Beats having some teacher who reads directly from the text with his unenthusiastic monotone voice.
P.S. To the person who's complaining about color switching, uhh seriously?? He does this to make it more easier to read, it's called color coding, duh.

People in 2014: Woooo thanks Khan Academy, you made me pass my AP calculus test!
People in 2020: Ughhh I hate Khan Academy, he makes math so tedious!
Me: lol

Get the Khan Academymug. The absolute worst of the worst clickbait news sites, basically the equivalent to McDonald's. Unlike other news sites, they did not earn their disgraceful reputation for being biased but rather for writing the most obnoxious, ridiculous, brain-dead articles that only attract those who have nothing better to read. Their entire site is psychologically designed to reel you in with a never-ending list of meaningless but mind-numbingly interesting facts and quizzes. The company is probably run by a bunch of greedy capitalist pigs that stop at nothing to get people to click on their articles.
Them: What's wrong with buzzfeed?? Y'all stupid if you think they have some political bias.
Me: Yeah......no. The pertinent problem with buzzfeed is not that they have any sort of media bias, but rather than they produce garbage clickbait articles that offer no value other than to stimulate our brain's dopamine reward system. They will capitalize on any topic if it's profitable, including politics. Basically Buzzfeed is like heroin, and I don't mean that in a good way.
