Holy shit, I’m batting like a .500 for not eating the onion. Which would be good in baseball. But it’s pretty bad odds for me in this case.

Yeah, I totally ate the onion on this headline lol, it’s basically just saying the quiet part out loud, which he does all the time.

Those five seconds it took me to see that’s the onion weren’t as wild as you might expect. It felt like a normal statement.

I must say a small part of me is beginning to loathe the 50-50 on whether some of the US-related headlines are real or not

I also had to do a double take on the “news” source. Any Onion completely bat-shit insane creations now sound plausible when “Trump” is in the title.
