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!

I know people who know him. Allegedly, he lost a bet and had to change his legal name to that.

So close, you qualify for reddit 🥈*. Better luck next time.

Correct answer: "Deez-Nutz" ["missing: "-"].

The Midwest is full of Florida, they just blame it all on Ohio
