People believe the unbelievable. That’s because we were all born innocent. A blank slate. Some, however, remain a blank slate for life. The reason you’re not supposed to believe everything you read is because The Onion and The Babylon Bee exist. People who ate the onion don’t “get” these sites. Satire news isn’t supposed to be confusing. They’re supposed to be funny.
As the great Alec Baldwin said: “consider the source.” You don’t want to go through life no understanding a joke. You should go through life understanding jokes, and then telling the person who told it they’re racist. Yes. That’s the stuff.
Don’t be that guy. And by “that guy” I mean someone who ate the onion publicly.
