Yeah, I’d be really pissed as well.
This is entertaining, but I seriously don’t understand how it’s appropriate for the World News community.
Did it not happen in the world?
That’s totally not the point. I’m questioning if it’s newsworthy and this community tends to be more for serious news.
There’s just more appropriate communities, like !nottheonion@lemmy.world, for example.
I took a dump after coffee this morning. I’m not an astronaut, so that happened in the world. Does that mean it’s newsworthy and should be reported on and posted in this community? (I’m insinuating this is more of a shitpost, if that’s not clear.)
“BREAKING NEWS: Man Takes Dump, Claims He is not an Astronaut!”
I’d read the article.
I’d read the headline and post something in the comments.
Look at all these folks with time to waste. I don’t even read the headlines. I go straight for the first comment, sorta look at it, and then comment. Like this.
“We now go live to the man’s rectum to see how its holding up after that dump!”
No, it happened in Italy.
I took a shit this morning, and I live in the world. Does that count? Should I make a post about that?
Maybe !offbeat@lemmy.ca would be more appropriate.

I did NOT expect the comments to be so divisive on this
It’s really not, the votes show that.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The proportion of Italian adults still living with their parents has long been high but one mother was forced to take drastic action after her two sons – both in their 40s – refused to abandon the comforts of the family home.
The woman, 75, from the northern city of Pavia, had grown weary of having to maintain her sons, 40 and 42, and on several occasions tried to convince them to find a more autonomous living arrangement, especially as each had a job.

In her ruling, Caterbi said that while the men still living at home was initially warranted due to the “obligation of the parent to provide maintenance”, it was no longer justifiable given the fact that they were over 40.

Although there has always been a culture in Italy of multiple generations living under one roof, the number of young adults staying longer in the family home has risen in recent years, mostly as a result of tough economic conditions and the lengthy amount of time it takes to find a stable job.
However, many are dismissed as bamboccioni (big babies), a term first used by an Italian politician in 2007 to mock adults still living with their parents and which suggests that some do it for the convenience of free room and board.

In one case, in 2020, Italy’s supreme court rejected the appeal of a 35-year-old part-time musician, who argued that his €20,000 (£17,400) income wasn’t enough to live off and he needed money from his parents.

The original article contains 428 words, the summary contains 268 words. Saved 37%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
First time I’ve seen the number of sentences skipped in these summaries, very nice! Gives a better idea of the whole article and if I’m missing out on a detail that was skipped
