This morning I saw on the news a report that plastic surgeries have decreased during the pandemic, with one major exception: butt implants are up 22%.

But do let Facebook checkers stand in the way.

I posted this fakery to FB as part of my personal "Everything you read is a lie" public service campaign.

Same with me. Just do as I do, and give a thumbs up anyway to encourage those who cannot distinguish good from mediocre humor. With practice, maybe they'll be as good as me one day.

As a Ubuntu fanboy user, the actual steps are more like:

I saw an ad that said: «Radio on sale, 2$, volume stuck on full.»

I thought, "I can't turn that down."

A slightly closer translation would be "I won't be vaccinated, I won't let them put harmful things in my body", which brings out the full anti-vaxx conspiracy theory nuttiness that's being lampooned.
