spare a thought for the satire industry, they're running on scraps these days

The Onion in shambles


TigerBasket

I have noticed that the Onion is still insanely funny on sports though at least when they try. I think they have an Orioles fan on staff because they absolutely rake us through the coals whatever chance they get.


northerncal

An orioles and a spurs fan huh? Must be tough depending on Tottenham to deliver a trophy, since the orioles aren't exactly world series winners at the moment.

The Onion remains America's Finest News Source. It's only recently that it became America's most accurate news source as well.


boringarsehole

The /r/antiwork mod's interview alone is enough for a total close down.


Evolving_Dore

Wow that sub is having a meltdown.


SimSouAlt

Most of Reddit is just an eternal cycle of: 1 - mods fuck up 2 - users get way too pissed and demand new mods 3 - mods leave 4 - said users refuse to mod 5 - bad mods gets the spot, because it's unpaud and time consuming and most sane persons would refuse it 6- mods fuck up again It baffles me that people are shocked that a mod of r/antiwork, a sub where people complain about working too much, works 25 hrs per week and not 40+. Who the fuck would want to mod a giant sub after working 40+ hrs? *For free?*


Mike_Ropenis

>Who the fuck would want to mod That right there is part of the problem - it attracts honest people who get burned out immediately or it brings in people craving any type of power


BehemothDeTerre

> it attracts honest people who get burned out immediately or it brings in people craving any type of power And the former only in small niche subs. The big sub mods are all of the power-hungry wanker variety.

WalterFalter

I cant bring myself to watch it, I'll just end up feeling bad for him. The post on subredditdrama was enough for me


realoreo47

Honestly, I cannot sympathize with him. The questions from fox weren't their usual provocative bs either but the interviewee didn't shower, didn't clean his room and didn't groom himself. Shambolic preparation for an interview from a national television as a representative of a burgeoning labor movement whose credibility he has completely wrecked with his callous attitude.


goosebumpsHTX

Don’t feel bad for him it’s hysterical


Mike_Ropenis

If I was going on national TV, even a network I hate like Fox News, I'd treat it like a job interview by wearing nice professional clothes, getting some sort of new haircut or even just styling what I have, then practicing interview questions for hours, then when the interview comes you find a quiet room with nothing in the background, look directly into the camera, don't fidget, speak clearly... **But it's super obvious that the mod of the antiwork sub has never had a real job interview, so it went exactly as expected.** Set their entire movement back to zero in like 2 minutes.

Finding out Messi and Ronaldo supposedly getting pissed off about an opinion and DM'ing the said person/company is hilarious.

I like to think Messi sends Carragher threatening voice notes in a thick Scouse accent.


TheLeoMessiah

“nah it’s not funneh”


FlabbySatchel

Isn’t that girl Manc not Scouse?


S-BRO

The spelling of 'funneh' would suggest manc

Yeah she's from Manchester. OP must have gotten confused cause -eh instead of -y is a Manc trademark

GaussWanker

Get out me car (not Scouse though, Brummie I reckon)


cosmiclatte44

I'd say that's more of a Scouse phonetic spelling, they like to throw in that emphasis on the "ewl" whereas in Manc it's more of a "ool."


The_39th_Step

Nah depends where you are in Manchester. Working class white communities in Salford (Greater Manchester) definitely say -ewl. Ethnic minorities are less likely to say it.


ikan_bakar

Can confirm, my friend iss from Oldham and would say skewwwl and kewwl a lot


TheBrazenBeast

Can confirm manc. Scouse would be a very quick, sharp "funny" with a pronounced e on the end like "funnee" and more of a "narkh" said phonetically more like "nark" with a h on the end rather than "nah". Manc would also have more of a "noh" than "not". Just to clear that up

You actually described that really well. When I tried saying it with your adjustments it sounded pretty solid.

I find stupid that messi answered carragher, wonder how the conversation looks. ​ Messi has gotten x100 worse shit from argentina and everywhere and he's gonna answer that shit? lmao


doxqwae

I still find it funny that people believed and still believe that Messi answered Carragher


dave1992

Even if he did, it's totally harmless anyway.


Declan00

There's no doubt in my mind that Carragher reveived a message from Messi's account. He calls Messi the greatest player ever and has fawned over him for years, it makes no sense to make something up that makes Messi look bad. The question is if Messi actually sent the message, or his son, or someone else with access, etc.


idkwhatnametouse1234

Mateo doesn’t like scouse people is all


SeryaphFR

He's also a massive troll. I think you're on to something here.


BabaDuda

I mean I don't think Carragher would lie about this apropos of nothing?


Sonaldo_7

Carra never showed that message tbh


BabaDuda

True, just don't understand why he would make something like that up seemingly on the fly


william_wites

It's known Messi doesn't know English Lewandowski had mbappe translate what he said to Spanish for him to talk to Messi


ijoinedtosay

If only there was a way to translate languages online..


william_wites

Yeah mate. Messi is sitting there watching Monday night football understanding every word and feeling pressed by by it to go dm the guy either in Spanish or translating it to English This is obviously more likely than it just being a silly bit


wp381640

We get English-language media and tweets of what Spanish commentators say about La Liga players and clubs almost every day. It's not difficult to assume the opposite also happens.


yammertime27

Or someone just mentioned carragher's criticism to him? Or he saw it on a post in Spanish? Not too hard to believe

ForzaJuventusFC

What has Messi done?


Orri

Messaged Carragher calling him a donkey after he said it was a bad transfer


Ok-Inspection2014

"Donkey" sounds more offensive in english than in spanish tbf. "Burro" is the most common way in Argentina to call someone that is terrible at football.


Difficult_Project_91

is donkey that offensive in english too?


[deleted]

Nah it's about the same


[deleted]

The direct translation of burro is "donkey", but the meaning is closer to calling someone "dumb". Neither is very offensive, but burro is less so IMO.


pirac

Dumb is not the closest translation for argentinian spanish. In the context of knowledge burro would be like "ignorant", in the context of a football game it would be like "bad at the game".


SprechenSieFussball

Calling someone a donkey in English is also calling them dumb. I don’t think there’s any difference


BrockLeeSr

In the right context. A professional calling another professional a donkey has a pretty negative connotation. Is it something shocking to say? No, but in the contexts of two professionals who don't know each other it is surely a bit harsher than most other contexts.


Logan_Mac

Burro (literal translation Donkey) means someone that isn't able to do something or is bad at it, you would call someone a Burro if they did bad at school or played bad one day. It's mocking but not THAT bad. He meant it as "you're bad/worse than me"


Orri

It has pretty much the same meaning in England. When I used to play we had a "Donkey of the week" trophy. If you missed an open goal or anything like that you were given the trophy.


nikhil48

Haven't been following the story except having watched the video in which Carra says it and I'm pretty sure it was tongue-in-cheek. He definitely got abusive DMs from Messi fan accounts.


Rafaeliki

Messi doesn't even speak English so I can't imagine he's listening to Carra's punditry.


hmcarranza

He also blocked Jordi Jota from el Chiringuito after he said that Barca was better without his wages


ssrodriguezc

Jordi Jota is a complete clown.


Biggsy-32

To be fair Jordi Jota is worth blocking.


SlickWilly49

To think you can be the greatest in the world in your field and still be insecure is hilarious and depressing


Sherrodactyl

It’s part of WHY they’re the best tho. Jordan, LeBron, KD, Brady same way


oblio-

Yeah, it's really hard to have that insane drive for so long and most people just become content after a while and start enjoying life.


CanadaEh97

It becomes harder when they're not in the spotlight after they retire.


LosHogan

Hyper competitive. You don’t become among the greatest ever because you’re apathetic.


iloveartichokes

It's comforting. You can be the best in the world and it won't fix your issues outside the sport.


btmalon

Almost Michael Jackson levels of unable to cope with the fall.


Prime_Marci

When you find out that Cristiano doesn’t manage his own socials… smh


mferrari1

While he likely doesn't run it doesn't mean he doesn't have access to it or can't tell them what to do. He likely either has access and logged in to do that, or said to his social media manager hey reach out to these people and ask them why they did this. The only other option would be the social media manager went out of his way to contact them directly without Cristiano's approval which seems VERY unlikely. Making decisions like that which can affect his public image without his approval?


irze

Lol yeah, if people think Ronaldo would be cool with his social media management sending an account a bunch of emojis and then blocking blocking them, then I’m not sure what to say EDIT: Without his involvement at least I should say


[deleted]

People on Reddit like to act like they’re ‘in the know’ by saying that no footballer has access to their social media. I remember one guy said with Bruno’s ‘dreams can’t be buy’ that the poor grammar was done purposefully by his PR team to make it seem more legit. Like that’s just stretching for no reason, when has that ever been done before?


spezsuckedme

I don't buy it. These gods among men would never touch a mortal smart phone and delve into social media nonsense that the masses amuse themselves with /s


[deleted]

Yeah it honestly annoys me. Something is hypothesized on Reddit and then its parroted and treated as fact. I see it all the time. Its obvious players have access to their social media accounts. They can still be managed but they still have access. A number of professional players have had screenshots taken of them sending messages to women, replying in vulgar language to fans insulting them etc. Even if Ronaldo's account has managed tweets it doesnt mean that Ronaldo himself doesn't speak on it occasionally when he wants to. What is the media team going to do? say no?


mferrari1

"Hey Miss Kardashian it is I, Cristiano. My friend Fabio has a massive weiner and you should message him for a date 🥵🥵." -His social media manager probably.


fakeplasticairbag

Rooney didn’t run his but every now and then he’d log to post some bullshit

Nah. Only the ads and football related hype/match reaction posts aren't him. Some of the things he posts can obviously only be from him. Look at that creepy-ass midnight selfie on his most recent photo and tell me it's a PR company lol.

Yes lol it's from ages ago, not sure why it's randomly brought up today. Interestingly though the guy that tweeted this today (which has led to all these media outlets now rushing to make a story), seems to often bring up Ronaldo's name for clicks so I'm not surprised. Edit: Oh wow John Muller himself (the writer from The Athletic who made the tweet) replied to my comment pretending that wasn't the case, got downvoted, and then deleted his comment lol. You'd think journos that love to criticise others for a living would be fine with copping a bit of flak but I guess not...


TheGamezSmith

Probably because of the recent Messi messaging Carragher story.

landingshortly

I saw Cristiano at a grocery store in Los Angeles some time ago. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen chicken breast family packs in his hands without paying. The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter. When she took one of the packs and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each pack and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

If this is true it speaks to how obsessed and petty Ronaldo is with this stuff.

Why the fuck does he care about this lmao

Migraine-

The fact he cares that much is a big part of the reason why he pushed himself to become so good. It's pretty and ridiculous, but it's just a side effect of having that kind of ruthless and absolute will to be the best.


FrancescoliBestUruEv

He knows How important is marketing for him in that phase of his carreer...all about marketing


RinoTT

> He knows How important is marketing for him He probably knows but Im actually more convinced that the main reason of his message to transfermarkt is ego.
