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.”

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!

This feels most like Breaking Bad where Walt’s actions cascade to two planes crashing over his house and the debris landing in his pool. Which I think we can all agree is generally not a poorly written show.

That’s fair. I loved Breaking Bad.

I was just picturing some scene with a lawyer sitting up at night at his home, going “How in the world am I going to prove my case against Boeing! I’ve got nothing and the trial is TOMORROW!” Just then, a Boeing emergency slide crashes into his window.
