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!

Demanding sympathy is the height of pity.

Pathetic. Maybe figure out why no one has any sympathy for the guy.

I will not show them the single touch of sympathy or pity or anything. Why should I? People like that would not only never show me the slightest sympathy, but they would also go out of their way in order to fuck me over and waste my time and money and then act like any reaction other than cock sucking them is criminal violence.
