God bless those folks at The Onion, a faux-newspaper satirizing culture and the news consistently funny since the 1990s when I first discovered them. They even had a TV show, ONION NEWS NETWORK, that was absolutely hilarious before IFC cancelled it.

So yes, an appreciation thread where I'll be occassionally posting Onion articles and headlines, contemporary and from the past. Like from Today:

"Royal Baby To Be Last Person On Earth To See Mother's Breasts"

My Yahoo used to have a feed for them, which was my only exposure (and it caught me off guard now and then!), but that hasn't worked in a while... ohwell



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

During the election, I saw people on both the left and right posting Onion headlines on their FB pages as real news stories.
