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, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Watch the Trial of Tim Heidecker and then clips from Alex’s trial and it’s spot on. If the Trial of Tim Heidecker hadn’t came out first, you would have sworn it was a parody of Alex.

To be honest, I still can't tell the difference.

Probably because those two links are exactly the same. (Happens to the best of us.)

Fixed. Darn phone crashes when I change tabs.
