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.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content 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!

That would be difficult given Blondie is a band and not a “she”.

I tell you one thing that really drives me nuts, is people who think that ~~Jethro Tull~~ Blondie is just a person in a band.

I knew Debbie’s grandma. It was important we knew that her granddaughter wasn’t named Blondie.

Its a quote from the movie Armageddon that sticks in my gray matter every time someone mentions Jethro Tull or a band that has a human sounding name that isn't named after a band member.
