Honestly, does the Onion help? I feel like it shows things could be worse so what bad thing is happening right not is not as bad.

Oh this one was close to getting me
God dammit, this is the onion.
It's not even fine any longer... I mean, it is, but God dammit.
(to be fair, i'm drinking and glossed over "relocate" lol)
There are a lot of fake internet points to be had from creating a new "isittheonion" community! I would have 100% believed this one.
Same. It's frightening that I can actually see that headline being true.
The crack of his ass is big enough
BREAKING NEWS: TRUMP IS SOILING THE PANAMA CANAL TO THE BRIM
That's how he marks his territory.
I didnt blink an eye
Also, Google will rename Canada "USA's 51th state" and Groenland "This belongs to me"
"Economists have never thought of this!"
They hate this simple trick.
So the promised wall to Mexico is now a moat instead.

The Onion is jacking me up. I thought this was real for a few secs.

...finally, this morning after 250 years of continuous digging, mostly by illegally detained inmates, the Panama Canal is finally home! From the center of Limburg field in SanDiego, thru the Texan sun, past Louisiana and right thru Disney World Florida!
As Mexico and Panama reconstruction continues, some say it could have been easier to just dig here from the beginning. But who can forget the views from Yucatán 150 years ago? What about when the canal passed thru michoacan and you could just pull avocados growing on the sides of the canal... The north side actually. Am I right? Yes, it was difficult, but we did it!
