I'll tell you guys a funny story. So, the Onion has this site: http://clickhole.com http://clickhole.com Check it out, it's great parody. I actually go there.
So, the last time someone mentioned BuzzFeed - which I don't really go on, I don't recognize it or anything - I ended up opening it and opening Clickhole.com in adjacent tabs.
Now, since I don't read buzzfeed, I was then completely convinced it was clickhole. It had like articles like this (from the current front page, not what I was reading but they'll do):
-23 Ways You Know Your Obsession With Your Cat Is Getting Out Of Control
- The Definitive Ranking Of The Most Cringingly Great Dialogue In “Titanic”
and so forth. (The above are verbatim from the site right now.) But then I got to one, and I couldn't figure it out. (Just looking at the title.) I've actually found it just now, based on remembering a keyword. It was:
- "Muslim-Owned Shops In Birmingham Were Attacked With Guns And Hammers"
I was looking at it and looking at it, trying to figure out the "joke" (why guns and hammers.) It was like a pun I couldn't get. Like the Onion was too clever for me. After about a minute, I gave up. And I saw on the tabs that I was on an actual site, not clickhole. I had to just laugh and laugh. The reason I couldn't figure out the joke was that I was on buzzfeed, which isn't satire! I just couldn't stop laughing.
