The Rules

  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.

Looking at the comments, Im so glad Im not the only one seeing a big sock with strap... lol.

I think it’s even worse than that. It’s just a gym sock with a slit cut down the middle to form the straps.

You could make one of these for like a dollar. And some spare time. Probably even cheaper if you already have an old gym sock laying around.
