Not The Onion

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!

Personally I LOVE having my time wasted!

Only if it's in fun and/or interesting ways, though, not waiting for some underpaid and overworked employee getting a key for the toilet paper safe or whatever.

I expect you like wasting time, not having your time wasted.

That's the difference between sitting around doing nothing and being forced to do nothing while you wait for something.

See, that right there is capitalist talk.

Time enjoyed is not time wasted unless you're Ebenezer Scrooge.

Hmm, good point. I sit corrected 😁
