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!

Anyone know if the Secret Service would show up if you threaten to boop someone right on the snoot?

I'll boop you on the snoot.

....and now we wait.

I had to laugh so hard while reading the article. What could go wrong?

For sure, these are not the best and brightest.

“[F]or a comment. This is ridiculous, for a comment,”

Yeah buddy. Not all comments are threats, and not all threats are comments, but your comments were both. If you need that explained, it's no wonder you are voting Trump.

I remember how worked up I could get when I was a child in the internet.

I used to write very poor emails absolutely livid whenever a videogame journalist would write a piece about how Nintendo should give up making consoles and just focus on games.

Were you also threatening Nintendo with your locked and loaded AR-15?

"Frank Lucio Carillo" I hope now that his name is out there that he doesn't get the same treatment that he gives to others.

Sounds like he should run for Congress. The Maggots would protect him
