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.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, ableist, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Fair enough, it looked like you were implying it was a trick you're passing on to others.

Obviously it doesn't matter either way and I can't prove or disprove what you're claiming now.

Yeah I'm suggesting they say that if needed, but lie convincingly.

Right, and I'm suggesting it's one of the older tricks in the book that only dumb/lazy cops would fall for.
