I'm creating a sub where you share personal stories, BUT with a twist...
r/TheOnionIsYou
You know how The Onion seems to try to predict the future with satire. They take real elements of politics (that are already ridiculous as they are, frankly) and turns them into hilarious stories that are just far enough from reality to make you feel mostly safe, but close enough to unsettle you too.
This is not a political sub, but it takes that concept and applies it to people's personal lives. Write about your family, friends, and others in your life in fictional stories that are exaggerated but also plausible. Use it as wish fulfillment, as a way of processing anger or fear, or just for the fun of it!
Of course since it's real person fiction I do have some strict guidelines around what information you can share about the people you include in stories. I very strongly recommend you read the group description before posting anything.
Since no stories have been posted yet I'd love new members to write something as soon as they join! Especially as examples for when others join so they understand more easily what the concept is.
Also I've decided that people should not share real names at all in the stories, so please ignore that particular rule (I'll rewrite the rules later).
Can't wait to see what y'all create :)
