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:

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!

It's true, the fact that we never drew and quartered this guy does seem like a failure of our responsibilities

Looks hungry

Edit: lawyers, is saying this illegal?

We need to start feeding him better.

I ANAL but typically getting charged requires a credible threat.

Credible threats have specific details and a plan, date, or similar. You have neither, you could most likely say much more and still be okay legally. The mods tend to be anal about such things, which is their right but is pretty lame.

Oh that's cool

I am not a lawyer, no it is not, but I will represent you as if it were all true.

We really, and I mean really, need to bring this motherfucker back. I can already sense the rich collectively shitting their pants worldwide on the mere mention of it.

Looks cool for stickers.

This but unironically. It's like these fucks are begging us to just start storming headquarters at this point. Taunting us.

They know they can run and hide from us longer than we can actually try to hunt them down. The cops, lawyers, judges and yachts will protect them

Gotta wait for the clusterfuck they've brought down on us to affect their servants. Think drivers, chefs, bodyguards watching their families drown in flood waters or starve/dehydrate to death.

Would you spend your life protecting the assholes who killed everyone you love?

It’s better late than never

He's right. Just not in the way he means.
