It was the first full year under new management here at Warming Glow, and for all your complaining (“BRING BACK MATT!”), you’ll be heartened to know that nothing really changed around here in terms of what was most popular: Alison Brie GIFs, Breaking Bad, Louis C.K., 90’s Nostalgia, and PUPPIES. As we wind down publishing in 2012, on behalf of Danger, Josh, and myself, I’d just like to thank you all for (mostly) welcoming us, bringing your friends, giving us crap EVERY SINGLE DAY, hanging out in our television discussion posts, joining us for our celebrity Q&As, and generally being a really great, smart, and hilarious community to hang out with.
As we head into 2013, here’s one last stroll through the archives of 2012. Happy New Year, y’all.
