  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

i think the biggest problem is that it's a less effective use of time, you could spend that time on something more productive, like building a better community, or improving support for marginalized groups, but no we're hear yelling about joe rogan being stupid instead.

At the end of the day, i just don't think it's very productive.

Says the person vehemently going through this thread defending the use of the word retard for the past thirty minutes. Why don’t you lead by example, then?
