Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

We really need a term opposite to "eat the onion".

I really shat the yam on that one.

I don't know. I think the opposite of an onion would be an orange not a yam.

Well the opposite of eat would be barf, so, "horked the orange"?

Edit: a word

I thought horking was snorting. Huh. I wonder whether that’s ever led to communication issues.
