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!

Its a joke to them. The same way that r/TheDonald started out as a joke, the same way that lemmygrad is a 'joke'.

Can't say I've found any of it super funny lately.

I assure you, Lemmygrad aren't in any way a joke, those fuckers write absolute treatsies for comments all of time.
