It's a lie. This Government backed “news service” hides us the fact that this is a Tribble.

This far from Klingon space?

Funny. Friend saw a tiny black poof ball on the highway, thought, "that might not be a poof ball," pulled over, and it was a tiny kitten. Now he's a meatball that likes to munch feet.

Now he’s a meatball that likes to munch feet.

Are you sure your friend wasn't just hiding that before?

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 3 points 7 months ago

Uhh... The cat munches the feet, not the friend. I mean, I don't know that the friend doesnt munch feet, but the cat certainly does.

Why is this a news story?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 19 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nothing else happened in Manchester that day? 🤷

[–] Patches@sh.itjust.works 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Alternatively something very very bad happened, and this story was published to cover it up.

Maybe Manchester City are finally being held accountable for their years of systematic financial doping?

How light are "hoglets"? Because I'd think a living creature would weigh a bit more than a hat bobble.
