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:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...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!

For a moment I thought he would have expressed concern about the effects of such a battery on the fragile ecosystem and the endangered species in it. But no, all he did is combine his ignorance about electricity and sharks to formulate this moronic thought.
He mentioned his "relationship with MIT" as well just before spewing out that gem. Was that really him trying to sound smart?
His uncle John Trump was a professor at MIT. Somehow that makes him a genius and gives him a relationship to MIT.
I also have a physicist relative connected to a prestigious institution and I'm a moron.
I mean he inherited everything he owns. He must be thinking that knowledge works the same way.
Ironically, by being aware that you are a moron, you are no longer a moron.
Well I'm sure as hell not a physicist. I didn't even finish college.
Edit: How did I manage to bring that up twice in one thread?
It you were a physicist, you could read minds and tell the future!
... or is that those doctors?
I know someone who saw Neil Armstrong once,which pretty much makes me the moon.
