I've been contributing for Cracked for the last few months and my first article finally went up on the front page last Thursday so check it out and let me know what you think.
http://www.cracked.com/article_17048_8-awesome-cars-they-wont-let-you-buy.html
I have two other articles that I've finished waiting for their turn to be run, so if you enjoyed this last one, keep an eye out for more from me in the future.

Thanks for the praise everyone, I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Yea, they pay $50 per article, but they are extremely selective and every finished article that appears on the site has had to go through a long pitch process before they accept the idea and allow you to write it for them.
They just put up my second article today that I wrote last month and you can see it on the front page, or find it here: http://www.cracked.com/article_17066_6-dream-jobs-that-would-actually-suck.html

Yeah, when I saw it I was thinking "I wonder if Pandajuice wrote this"
I was right!

Didn't realize you wrote those. They're both really damned good, and it's nice to see a writer on cracked not trying to fall back on the word "fuck" for a joke each time.

I'd read them right now but I have an assload of threads to go through, and usually when I go on Cracked I stay there all day.

Yeah, just noticed that one this morning, and was about to post in this topic. It's your best so far, and definitely one of the better ones on the site. They need some better writers who don't resort to ending paragraphs with the phrase "fucking _______" to get humor.

Here's just a little topic page I made for Cracked that they picked up and featured the other day. The topic pages are kind of like Cracked's humorous version of wikipedia. I have two other full articles in the works that I'll post here in case any of you guys are interested.

That has to be the most oddly specific topic ever, though extremely entertaining.
