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:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...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!

I once set oil on fire while making stovetop popcorn while drunk. This knowledge likely saved my house.

Here's another good one with some slo-mo action. You can see it's just a normal pot and what looks to be a single coffee mug full of water. The resulting fireball is massive.

Yeah, this one is even scarier.
