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

[–] [email protected] 63 points 1 month ago

why not both

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

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month 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

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

I can’t tell. Is this real???

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 month ago

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

Best onion article yet.

And yes it seems true too!

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. 🤣

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

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

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fuck no, dude doesn't deserve a cent.

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
