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:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...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!

Technically OP is off topic, if one happens to be a pedantic asshole. Which I am.

It felt very good to upvote this one comment, for some strange reason. :p
Any other circumstances I'd be like screw that guy, but it scans so well right here....
I’ll try striking! That’s a good trick!
Can't wait for the Onion article covering this news!
But I'm guessing we will have to.
In solidarity.
Wait. Is it a joke or… I feel trapped into the Opposite Day loop here.
Wait, what? $44 milion in revenue? Thats peanuts for company this size, isn't it?
I'm assuming that's just revenue from The Onion, although the wording on it leaves much to be desired.
I used to love The Onion so much. Then the state of affairs got so bad that The crap coming out of the government was worse than the stuff they made up. I get PTSD tics now wearing that someone in the government is going to take notes.
Onion also got bought out a couple times. The new videos are low effort crap; nothing like the superb clips from 10-15 years ago, which is probably the best satire ever created.
I'm honestly kind of shocked they survived the Trump administration. Could you imagine trying to outbid the government for crazy during those years?
their tiktok videos are pretty good as it makes fun of the typical tiktok videos, but peak onion may never be reached again
The Onion Union. Say it 5 times fast.
Literally the Onion
Their picket signs are going to be next level
They should negotiate bonuses for writers who predict the future.
