Unrelated to the content, how does a self respecting journalist start an article's title with "Omg"?
Like I feel dirty even giving them a click when I have no obligation to society, it's just depressing to see them presenting as a credible news source
Probably the same way we don't start them with "VERILY!" or "FORSOOTH!". Language evolves and makes old people mad. Tale as old as time.
Well, we should.
Raw Story is a fake news website, always has been.
Omg word using person uses word that you understood to communicate idea.
Get over yourself, mate
It's a quote, dumbass
Oh my god, is that what those funky-wunky little lines around Omg meant?
Before I just thought it was just a sensationalist garbage headline, I had no idea someone ACTUALLY said "Omg" in relation to the article, mind blown, thanks
Quote the quote!!!
The fact you lack respect for other living beings does not indicate that they necessarily lack respect for themselves.
