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!

It looks fine, I just feel like I am missing a layer of the joke

Sometimes people don't pay attention to the community a post is in.

See, I was thinking that, even in the context of a group of threads about real life headlines that are so absurd that they sound satirical, this person was letting us know they don’t want to read about celebrity gossip.

Apparently it's unpopular to point that out.
