Got me too. I literally said WTF before I noticed.
the onion is getting really good at “getting” me. they had me again with this article!
That’s because reality has caught up with their ridiculousness.
Fuck. They got me too here.
Jesus, ate The Onion again. Right at the edge of believably.
In the 90s, the headlines were absurdist satire, and the point was to laugh at people who could fall for it being a real news publication.
Things like “Woman wins powerball lottery. Buys state of Montana.”

Why would you bring that condimental abomination into this friendly discussion?

*female voters.
“women” is a noun, not an adjective. Writing “women voters” is just as bad as writing “voting females”
The phrase “women voters” is grammatically correct. It’s a compound noun phrase where “women” serves as an attributive noun modifying “voters.” This construction is common in English (like “student athletes” or “senior citizens”) and is used to specify a subgroup of voters.
