The story feels a little different with the actual picture

Lmao that's the grin of a person who has no regrets
Did she at least get dressed before the mugshot?
Doesn't look like it. Idk if their policy is to give standard issue before or after the mugshot. Not that it makes it right, but I could see someone thinking "hurr says on the paper they don't get nuffin!" When the person who wrote that likely wasn't thinking about nude mugshots.
I'm not trying to be witty or doing this for comedic purposes, but Jesus Christ... I've only ever seen this meme. I've never looked into the article. That being said it is slightly hilarious that the author decided to add that bit about never seeing someone naked before and then "strange erotic sensations".
It makes more sense when you look at the rest of site. It's a "satire" news site. It's not a real story.
I thought "That doesn't sound like something a real journalist would write", and sure enough... Scroll down to the bottom, and you find
Who would even believe:
That's straight up erotic fan fiction. lol
Yeah I got to that point and was a little disappointed tbh, I wanted this to be true lol
Their motto at the top, "News you can count on to let you down"
Damn, I missed that too haha
It seemed fake when they said two young men on bicycles. That’s more Morman style. In my experience JWs are an older, very conservative looking lady with a “FML” child in tow carrying copies of The Watchtower.
I once had a roommate who was a JW, and after he moved out we kept getting JW missionaries at our door for weeks afterwards. It was just like you described. They take a child with them to deter people from being rude.
Am I the only one completely exhausted with "satire" news? We have enough misinformation as it is, and now we know how dangerous it can be. It's not funny anymore.
When it's done well, it's great. I love The Onion. The problem is people writing stories that look like real news and then pretending that it's satire.
It’s one thing when the site is obviously satire but they’re clearly trying to appear as a real news site. It’s so unnecessary
It's necessary to get them clicks.
So you're saying I shouldn't purchase this Jehovah's witnesses costume?
Well, the Witnesses got what they want because THANK GOD
This makes me want to watch Orgazmo again.
It's also not a real news story, so there's that.
Knew something was wrong when it mentioned bicycles. That's not really a JW thing, though maybe some are doing it since I left.
This makes more sense. Thank you.
Every article these days feels like it was written by AI trained on nothing but Christian centrists.
The hover-text on the picture is "VMAGIC". Whoever was responsible for that must've had one hell of a giggle.
