This has been 10 comments you see every time someone shares a post from "The Onion" on social media, and the people who make them. Thank you.
I'm a weird subset of The Determined to Let You Know They're In On The Joke that brings up unrelated Onion articles. Like the one about Harry Potter books sparking a rise in Satanism among children, which I'm pretty sure is still being forwarded as real by The Easily Offended (and Also Gullible).
ReplyDeleteNext time try sharing content from something that is still remotely funny, unlike The Onion. The Beet, perhaps, or The Turnip. I personally recommend The Carrot.
