I'm not sure if this goes in "The Onion" or "Not The Onion".

[-] BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml 62 points 1 day ago

why not both

I feel like this is the one exception where this news belongs everywhere.

[-] KingOfTheCouch@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago

I posted in another thread already, but I found it amusing seeing the same news in both. 🤣

This is fucking hilarious. That Sandy Hook denier can get absolutely fucked.

Huh, never thought I'd be an Infowars listener, but then I also never thought Trump would be a two-term president. So I guess this is just a strange timeline.

I was thinking we were in the Darkest Timeline, but was confused because nobody is wearing evil eye patches or goatees

[-] KingOfTheCouch@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

It turns out eye patches and goatees are signs of good people.

Why would a reputable news source like The Onion want to tarnish its good reputation by buying a website famous for being full of lies that people believe?

Although I couldn’t picture it at the time that is exactly the kind of response I wanted to illicit. Thanks. Hope you enjoyed.

Well played! It took me a bit to both find this gif and learn how to post animated gifs to Lemmy. 🤣

[-] mos@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago

I can’t tell. Is this real???

[-] socphoenix@midwest.social 27 points 1 day ago

NBC news and cnn have also picked this up so appears to be real yes.

[-] Valmond@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Best onion article yet.

And yes it seems true too!

[-] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

Fucking incredible. As good as everything else has been bad.

Can't wait to see what they do with it.

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

Fuuuuuck I hope they hire Jones to parody himself. The irony might actually kill him.

[-] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 19 points 1 day ago

Fuck no, dude doesn't deserve a cent.

[-] _stranger_@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Ok better idea, claim that his name is an integral part of the business identity and sue him for his own name, then make AJ a character, like Bozo the clown.

I wanna know which powerful people jones pissed off because there's no way he'd get got this hard if it wasn't someone with a lot of pull

You don't mess around with Global Tetrahedron.
