fake

When this woman asked a parody customer service Facebook account to get back into her game, they made sure to make her experience as strange as possible. Not sure if this woman was in on it from the start, just playing along, or if she was just super desperate to get back to playing her casino game. Either way, the things you can do with a fake customer service account are absolutely wonderful.

There are more than a few satire websites out there, and there's a lot of softheaded nincompoops who believe it. Sometimes reading a joke headline can be confusing for a person who lacks critical thinking skills. Often they get angry because they don't understand what's going on. Sometimes, even more distressingly, they think that the headline is good news and share it with their friends. It's fun to laugh at their confusion, but eventually it just kind of gets sad.

We're not going to lie. We'd definitely be interested in buying some of these. "Fake products" and all, these are pretty great. Also, if you thought you knew what fear was you hadn't seen Kermit with teeth yet. Good luck getting to sleep tonight. 

Before reacting to a headline, always check the source and make sure that you're not alerting everyone on your feed to the fact that you didn't understand an obvious joke. The Onion has been around for decades, but people still get duped by their joke headlines, like all the time.

It's almost always a bad idea to lie to a doctor. Like, if you're in the hospital for a legit reason, it's always a better option to actually tell them what happened to you. And if you're in a doctors office for a totally illegitimate reason. idk what to say, man. Anyway with that out of the way, here's some juicy times people lied to doctors and faked illness for various reasons. If you want even more of a sad thrill, here are doctors telling stories of their most dangerously stupid patients.

Every time we post one of these it makes us think that there are no legitimate reviews out there. Does anyone every just have a good sandwich anymore? Is it all just angry liars with an axe to grind? Anyway, it sounds like whoever's idea it was to open a diner next to a diner is bound to be a few sandwiches short of, well, a diner.

We humans love to see justice served to those who deserve it. Right? I can personally say that there's nothing more satisfying than seeing online liars get caught. Did they really think they'd get away with it? It almost makes you feel like there are actual repercussions for dishonesty in this world. Here are some times people got called out for their falsehoods, large and petty, and it's pretty damn satisfying. 

None of these "facts" are true. They're basically a fun exercise in how things can sound true if you make up some context and throw in some names and dates. They sure sound like they're real though. You may even find some stuff that you've been mistakenly telling people for years. We take no responsibility if you end up repeating these as the truth at a party. That's on you, doofus.

Just when you think people can't stoop low enough, they respond seriously to an Onion article. Is it a lack of critical thinking skills? Poor reading comprehension? Zero sense of humor? Bogus knowledge of the real world and an inability to distinguish between fact from fiction? Okay, yeah it's probably a combination of all of these. Anyway if you liked these then here's more times people assumed The Onion was trying to be a reputable News source.

Oh hell yeah, nothing like the long con. This is some Jim Halpert level office pranking, right here.

Whether it's to complain about a restaurant, falsify a new story, or just to get likes, people are out there lying like it's their job. Thankfully, there's also people on the internet who feel compelled to call those people out and prove them wrong. Sweet, sweet Justice.

Just goes to show that people will react to a ridiculous headline before reading the source. One of these even came from a site called "Not Really News." It's almost as if there is nothing The Onion can put out that SOMEONE won't think is real.

People will go to the greatest lengths for the dumbest reasons. Faced with that much in real medical bills, her Dad could've said a lot more than he did.
