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.”

Comments 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!

How did they get an office in the department of motor vehicles

They didn't, they're just in the Delaware/Maryland/Virginia area.

DMV stands for D.C./Maryland/Virginia in that context and refers to the D.C. metropolitan area.

What you're thinking of is the Eastern Shore peninsula, which is called Delmarva and is made up of parts of those three states.
