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.”

Comments 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!

Just gonna throw this out there.

You can buy googly eyes in bulk on amazon. about 5 bucks for 2,000 in assorted sizes. Self adhesive, even.

FYI, a kitchen cupboard full of cans is an excellent target for these. It's amazingly off putting to hope the cupboard have have the contents staring back at you in silent judgement.

Extra kudos if you manage to get a friend/relative without them realising you're a suspect.

I certainly cannot confirm or deny its veracity….

Not at all….

while we're at it you can also legally buy traffic cones

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

remember, folks, if you don't obey in advance, you can get cool shit.

like golden traffic cones.

(which was added after people were doing traffic cones on statues and Glasgow just gave up and gave in.) (Non-serious issue, with a serious reminder,)
