        I think this site also had a really funny article about an alpha male that touched a tampon and ended up in an ER.

      Honest question. At what point do people proclaim this? Did you read the article or did you internally respond before checking the source?

        No. You read the headline, and react. Just the same as any other article. Then you see the community posted, laugh, and reply “ate the onion”.

        See in the 90s, the whole point of the onion (the actual original paper distributed onion newsletter) was to grab peoples attention and fool them into thinking it’s a real headline.

        Thats what happened here. I believed it was a legit headline. Thus, I ate the onion.

        Technically, the power source for his vehicle does have an exhaust port that occasionally puts out methane gas.

      That was addressed at the end of the article.

      At press time, Governor DeSantis banned reruns of “The Flintstones” after learning the family was having a “gay old time” in every episode.

      Yeah, it’s sadly believable. Ron is that much of a culture war stoking prick.

    People who thought this was real - don’t feel bad, it’s a reference to Florida’s REAL “Don’t Say Gay” law, enacted in 2023, that bans the word from public schools.

      It’s not as common now but I’ve met somebody who’s first name is Gay.

      Who’s that guy over there? Well that’s Homosexual Smith; the heterosexual.

        I knew a woman whose first name was Gay but she always went by her middle name.

        Actually Homosexual Smith sounds like a famous frontiersman or maybe an Old West preacher.
