  • In early March 2024, a Facebook post from a page purporting to belong to the city of Kenosha, Wisconsin, went viral. The post, which had more than 1,600 comments and 5,400 shares as of this writing, advertised a supposed hole-filling initiative by the city: Do you have a hole that needs to be filled? The City of Kenosha takes public safety very seriously, which is why we're excited to launch our new #ShowUsYourHole public safety initiative. To participate, simply send us a picture of your hole, along with it's location and the tagline: "Come fill my hole" and we will dispatch our crews to service your hole in a prompt and professional manner. Your satisfaction is our priority. Many commenters were quite amused, with one of them spinning the metaphor further: "Does one get to choose who come out to fill my hole," she asked. "I don't want it done half a**ed." Others jumped on the chance to report failing infrastructure: "All of 24th Ave from 75th street to 71st street." Screenshots of the post were shared on other social media platforms including X, where one user added the caption: "I didn't realize Kenosha f***ed like that." Some Kenoshans may be disappointed to learn this was not a real initiative by the city's authorities, however. This story was not a factual recounting of real-life events. The Facebook page it originated on describes its output as being humorous or satirical in nature, and it includes the following disclaimer: False news, events and information for Kenosha Wisconsin and the surrounding area. THIS IS NOT REAL The city of Kenosha's official Facebook page had not been updated since September 2023. For background, here is why we sometimes write about satire/humor.
