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!

Tide goes in, tide goes out. Never a miscommunication. You can't explain that. You can't explain why the tide goes in.

came here to post this hahaha. I still use "X does this, Y does that -- You can't explain that." sometimes. Just something about the hubris of ending it with pointing at the person and saying you can't explain that, I love it just as much today: https://youtu.be/NUeybwTMeWo?t=11

It's a blast from the past. Seemed like it was the turning point in his career. Circling the drain so to speak.

Yes I can. Tide goes in because tide goes out.

[–] khepri@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah ok mr smart guy, if that's why the tide goes in, then explain to me why tide go out, if you even can

Tide goes in, wash cycle begins, wash cycle ends, dirty water drains out.
