Gotta love that mention of "The Next Bill Gates?" It's been over a decade and sadly we haven't heard of Episoft. It's fine and dandy to build your own computer using old parts, and you can't knock them for ambition, but the way he talks about phoenixes rising from ashes is just awesome. You can expect a lot from a slow news day in Maine.

A viral audio clip from Tik Tok is to blame for starting this whole "Ok Boomer" movement. Yes, apparently an old dude in a baseball cap made a clip of himself calling out the younger generations for having Peter Pan syndrome, and never wanting to grow up. This resulted in countless angry folks from Generation Z responding with, "Ok Boomer." From there, a movement was born. And apparently there's even some merch in the mix.
We're not established journalists, but we think most of us could do a better job than these facepalm inducing headlines. It's too bad so much journalism is online now and can just be edited later. We miss stuff like these magazine layout fails. Sometimes news dumbness is on the reader's side, like these people who didn't understand satire.
With the proper context, satire news websites are incredibly enjoyable sources of entertainment. But if you aren't inclined to get the joke, or just have no idea that what you're reading is supposed to be a joke, you can look pretty damn stupid. There are too many instances of times people didn't understand satire.

Jason Gudasz's car was damaged by a falling wall, and was asked by multiple news networks to retell the story. He cut all of his appearances together into this short humorous video.
Mr. Broccoli really missed his opportunity to capitalize on having a platform to discuss climate change. Instead we just watch a moron use the platform to roleplay a vegetable. Yikes.

Twitter users are reacting to the news that McDonald's will be introducing their first plant-based burger called the "PLT." The big catch here that vegans are already pointing out with sizable frustration is that the burgers will still be prepared on the same grill that meat is, which kind of defeats the point. McDonald's goes and tries to do something for the vegans, and they're still mad!
Whether it's just not understanding what proper sources are, poor reading comprehension, or just not wanting to get the joke, some folks out there have a really hard time understanding what satire is. At first, reading these are kinda funny, then after a while it gets sorta sad to see it all.
After all the hype and the buildup, "Storm Area 51" is here. People actually showed up. Not only that, but we've got Kyles out there already photobombing live news broadcasts with legendary "Naruto Runs." So, with an event of such amazingly ridiculous proportions, we had to round up some of our favorite tweets from the madness.
