Tasty News: LAST WEEK TONIGHT Offers Up An Alterntive to the Peeple App

Last Night John Oliver’s Last Week Tonight ended the episode with coverage of the most controversial app to enter the mobile market. Peeple has been described as “Yelp for Humans.” The only problem is that humans on the Internet are not always the best judges of one another. Just take a look at the comments on YouTube and you’ll solidify that point. As a substitute to the app, Oliver’s team came up with their own website that offers a way to let out all those criticisms and pent up frustrations without hurting each other’s feelings. Just click on screamintothevoid.com and watch your nasty words disappear into the black hole they were meant for. For those who simply can’t go on without an app that judges them, Oliver also offered up Peeble, that’s actor/director Mario Van Peebles giving rating photos of you ever so kindly. Once again, thank you Last Week Tonight for making it all better.

Mentions: FYI, snopes.com recently gave some pretty convincing evidence that Peeple was a hoax. If that’s indeed the case it was the greatest joke ever.
