The length of time I've seen people commenting this, makes me think they mean 'recently' on a geological scale.

Dammit, The Onion got me again. These headlines lately are too believable.

Well it would be bad if we began eating soap. Right?

[–] pythonoob@programming.dev 5 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Better than bleach... Right?

[–] hopesdead@startrek.website 1 points 12 hours ago

I’m no scientist, but I think so.
