I think invasion is too strong a term. Maybe, a special operation of antelopes?

You're a bunny, you're not even exotic meat.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Yeah, but they might have Mad Mad Bunny disease. You don't want none of them prions, dawg.

Tell that to my vet, she treats me as her "exotic pet"

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Probably delicious when cooked right. Never had antelope, but reindeer and moose are probably in the same pallpark and those are both good.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 month ago

One day Oversimplified will cover this on youtube. Just like the pig war and the emu war.

And he'll release it right after he covers vietnam. Which will be in approximately 90 years.

Everything is going according to plan!

The Daily Star is really more entertaining semi-fiction than news, but this is still Onion-worthy.

A lot of antelopes about to be mysteriously pushed out windows.
