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.

Quality post. I really did think I was reading an Onion headline.

And I have to admit, the first time I saw the guy in my neighborhood who bought one driving it around, I pointed and laughed too.

Wow! I skimmed through the article and legitimately thought it was an onion article until I read your comment.
