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.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content 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!

Lol. I've lied during lie detector tests and still passed.

Hoping our FBI officials are capable of doing the same.

It'd be funnier if they passed while being as sarcastic as possible just to mess with him

I like to imagine that anyone who works at the FBI, and has the opportunity, would try lying at the polygraph for fun.

Of course, "lie detectors" are bunk.
