A witness said is a man eating a detached leg. The detached leg came from a person hit by a train near the Wasco Amtrak station earlier that morning.

Atleast there was no murder

[-] ThisMachinePostsHog@hexbear.net 56 points 8 months ago

Mf really went, "Ooh, free leg!"

[-] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

It would have been free lunch if it wasn’t for those pesky ~~kids~~ cannibalism laws.

[-] huf@hexbear.net 19 points 8 months ago

never mind cannibalism, he was arrested for "taking evidence from the scene" :D

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

I showed this to one of my friends and all he said was "Well was it cooked?"

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 10 points 8 months ago

don't keep us in suspense

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 37 points 8 months ago

Construction workers were working outside a train station until they saw a horrifying site of a man eating a human leg.

I know journalism is dead, but they could at least pretend to care about literacy. Maybe this is how they prove their articles aren't written by bots?

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

god there are so many typos in that story.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 23 points 8 months ago

Kind of makes me feel better about my own writing tbh. At least mine isn't this bad.

[-] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

It's like a 4th grader writing a book report.

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 22 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

These typos actually prove the article isn't written by a bot but rather by a dumbass who doesn't care to check the red-marked words

A human dumbass

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago

doesn't care to check the red-marked words

spellcorrect is a fucking cop i will never listen to it

[-] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

I once lost a point on an essay because I secondguessed myself due to one of those red lines. It was still an A, but I'll never forgive the machines for that.

[-] Dolores@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

they are LIARS, disingenuous perfidious machines that do not UNDERSTAND prose

[-] DayOfDoom@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

Modstold me they'll give me to this man as food if I make another problematic Yu-Gi-Oh post.

[-] GinAndJuche@hexbear.net 16 points 8 months ago

C/Urbanism doesn’t fuck around, look at they had a train do this guy.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 13 points 8 months ago

I liked Yugioh before you needed a magnifying glass and half an hour discussion to work out what the cards actually do.

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 4 points 8 months ago

yu gi oh was at it's best in that abridged for youtube format

[-] SSJ2Marx@hexbear.net 2 points 8 months ago

YGOTAS is still being made and still consistently funny.

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 8 months ago

It taught me that capitalists will screw the rules, because they have money.

[-] SSJ2Marx@hexbear.net 2 points 8 months ago

Magic makes things a lot more playable by having a dictionary of key words. They're a pain to learn at first but it makes the game so consistent in comparison to YGO.

How was the leg detached??

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 37 points 8 months ago
[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 23 points 8 months ago

Tankies be coping that their precious trains have resulted in another fatality. Cars will reign supreme forever, nobody ever gets hurt by them.

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago

I actually live right near where this happened lmao

[-] jack@hexbear.net 16 points 8 months ago

You just couldn't help yourself, had to get a bite

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago

Folks is eating a random leg you find on the train tracks "freegan"?

(This is not a dig at vegans and is only 90% a joke)

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Freeganism is an ideology of limited participation in the conventional economy and minimal consumption of resources, particularly through recovering wasted goods like food. The word "freegan" is a portmanteau of "free" and "vegan". While vegans avoid buying, consuming, using, and wearing animal products as an act of protest against animal exploitation, freegans—at least in theory—avoid buying anything as an act of protest against the food system in general.

I don't think so, under that definition you would have to normally be able to buy human legs in order to abstain from it as a protest.

[-] Formerlyfarman@hexbear.net 1 points 8 months ago

But by eating the leg you are abstaining from buying other foodstuffs.

[-] JohnBrownNote@hexbear.net 3 points 8 months ago

would've been vegan straight up if he gotten her consent.

[-] seas_surround@hexbear.net 15 points 8 months ago

could you describe your family crest to me sir

[-] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

How is it like to like in California? Is it more commiefornia or capitalfornia? I'm guessing the latter.

[-] RNAi@hexbear.net 7 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Stop doxxing yourself so much

[-] Nakoichi@hexbear.net 7 points 8 months ago

I have said this about like 10 different cities in Cali that are all hundreds of miles apart lol.

Peoplewithseriousmentalhealthissues be houngry

[-] ksynwa@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 8 months ago

At this moment, investigators haven't said who the leg belongs to, or who was hurt in the train crash, but sources said one person is dead.

Investigative journalism

[-] TechnoUnionTypeBeat@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

On top of the obvious typo in the first paragraph

It's a horrifying sight, which shouldn't have passed any quality check before publishing

[-] vertexarray@hexbear.net 18 points 8 months ago

So, how many stray limbs has this guy eaten and gotten away with

[-] LENINSGHOSTFACEKILLA@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago

What's wrong with this form of cannibalism? At least the person didn't have to kill the guy for his 🍗
