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!

Sounds like something straight outta Florida Man.
But it being Tejas is close enough.

Don't you dare compare Texas to Florida! We're nowhere near their levels of crazy.

I used to work at a major fast food restaurant with a drive-thru. My coworker sold weed through that drive-thru.

My stepfather knew a guy who delivered pizzas and the people who wanted him to deliver weed with the pizza requested him specifically. Dude made enough as a pizza delivery guy that he was able to buy a hella fancy sports car. Tbh, the idea was gold and I'm happy he was successful lol.

This is pedantic but it annoys me every time I hear someone say it, let alone see it in writing: amphetamine can be plural; methamphetamine never is. Meth is an amphetamine, technically a substituted amphetamine, one of several such amphetamines.

Would you like the Large MethDouble combo or just the meth?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago

Okay but you're probably going to want more.

You are articulating more like a shroom user

Sorry, what's the action you want corrected?

I don't want to look like a idiot if I ever buy no no drugs.

Please trust me when I say that buying meth, if you never have, is dumber than anything I was talking about.

That said, the fine folk distributing meth aren't exactly the shiniest crystals in the batch.
