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!

Tourism is weird. I'm Australian and had no idea where the Cadbury factory is in Australia, now I do. Would I take my daughter to the Cadbury factory? Probably not, would I take her to the worlds largest chocolate fountain, where theres also a design your own chocolate bar studio, yeah I would.

I'm probably not going to Tasmania just for that, but if we went down for something else would I extend our trip for a day or two... yeah, I would.

I was so disappointed when they discontinued factory tours because people couldn't keep their fucking hands to themselves when walking past the chocolate machines.

Did they never watch or read Charlie and the Chocolate factory?

Even Charlie got up to no good at one point. Everyone thinks they're the Charlie and won't get in any serious trouble for their antics.
