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, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

The first returns were all about the same thing as this post, but I clicked a Reddit link to see what they said about it, and the first zillion comments were all about ad blockers, and all of them getting their zingers in ("I ain't raw dogging it on your website"). I scrolled for a while and gave up, without ever getting to a post about the subject. I figured next up was a bunch of puns.

A brief reminder of why I don't miss Reddit.
