What is your most embarrassing "ate the onion" moment?
A few days ago I shared some news that the Eurovision song from Israel would be named "Your land is mine now" to later realize it was from an onion kind of website, lol.
I hope I'm not alone in this kind of f'up.

Is "ate the onion" a well known saying? I've never heard It before
I'm not sure how well known it might be, is when you take a The Onion article seriously.
It comes from the phrase "ate it up" (meaning to gullibly believe something) and The Onion, one of the most famous satirical 'news' outlets.
It means to believe a satirical news piece.
If you are unfamiliar with The Onion, a satirical news site, it would not make sense.
for australian prime ministers it is. at least, it is in recent history

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
I think there is a subreddit that is called that or similar.
I Can't comment as to the "erll" qualifier, but I have seen the expression used before inregards to not seeing the satire in a satire article.
EDIT: No edits. The above stays as it stands, purely out of spite.

Two mistakes in one 'word'.
But "erll" is fine? Not only are you a grammar/spelling nazi - You're bad at it.
