A little while back, Mock told you about an Actual Headline from coosvalleynews.com.
She even took a screenshot in case someone changed it, because WTH?
That’s… interesting.
Worth noting, of course, that “Cumming” is a city… not a verb, in this case.

Yeeeeeah…
Not as inspiring as they meant it to be, is it?
As Twitchy pointed out, this isn’t the FIRST time the Pratt Tribune has raised some eyebrows with an unintentionally gross headline.
