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!

We used to play "if you can convince me it's a word, it counts". I got a triple word score on zaxticuous and that shit got shut down. It means: Having the property or appearance of Zach Morris from Saved by the Bell.

The best Scrabble move I ever saw:

My brother: "Can you put down swear words?"

My mother: "No."

My brother: (Puts down SHIT) "Not a swear, just what I have to do." (Leaves to go to the bathroom.)
