I'm scared. If it can fool Andy Warhol it can fool me.
I had to look up if Warhol was killed by dingoes. For the also curious, he was not.
I'd heard that one day he almost walked into a room full of them. But it turns out he dingo in there.
A dingo ate my babby.
That actually happened and the media ridiculing the woman was a second tragedy.
I did not know that. Dang that was a messed up read. https://www.snopes.com/articles/366073/dingo-ate-my-baby-quote/
Also, the Snopes article doesn't mention it, but indigenous tribes had know dingos could and would take human babies, but mainstream media/authorities ignored them.
Yet, the false story will remained in the public consciousness thanks to totally not hack comedy writers.
You know that's a true story? Lady lost a kid. You're about to cross some fuckin' lines.
I guess almost half a century ago is too soon for some outrage addicts.
