you seem like the kind of dork whose brain literally explodes when you read this sentence

If I had a nickel for every time someone went on tirade subthread about David's use of newspaper headline syntax…
This time it's really weird because there's hardly even anything nonstandard here. It's the same structure as in sentences like "Take Toyota Prius for a test drive, win free movie tickets"; "Buy a six pack of Sandels beer, get a free beer mug" or "Fuck bitches, get money".
literally unreadable

the most ordinary newspaper headline I could find: the San Francisco Chronicle’s front page where the title is “INVASION!” in the biggest font they could justify (pun intended) and the subtitle is “Allies pouring into Northern France!” because it’s a headline about the Nazi killing parts of world war 2 I like and recommendMe casually posting infohazards (bri*ish sports tabloids) capable of causing severe physical harm to average Lemmy user:
brinish sports tabloids? yeah who knows what those salty fuckers undersea get up to, so slippery!
