The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...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!

Rogue*. I'm not usually that guy, but this particular typo makes me see red.

I know what you mean, except for me it makes me see rouge ever since I spent some time in France.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, that is indeed the joke I was making.

This is all very funny because despite your not being aware of it, the french word for red is rouge!
