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 will never understand this.

All you need to know is that people are having harmless fun

Unless one of the stick horses break, and they drag it out back and saw it into kindling

We don’t need to.

It’s people having fun.

I will never understand nfl football. Dudes in tights chasing other dudes in tights. Idiots dressing up in cosplay being stupid.

How many fans are going to downvote that? (And how many would make fun of me for the DnD cosplay at a con?)

Ideally, you need to be a girl under the age of 12 to understand this. However, if you are a parent of at least one such child you might gain this superpower through reverse inheritance.
