It’s an excellent article, but humour is subjective and it isn’t in my personal top ten. Made me laugh out loud, though.

I thought it was good. Just sent the link to a friend.

I need to bookmark the Onion again…I used to read it all the time on the last computer I used but I seemed ot have forgotten about it (yeah I know, how could I?).

That got an audible chuckle out of me.

The Onion is pretty funny, but I have to kind of be in the mood to be amused by them.

I just know with all the political stuff that has to come out now this article would be lost in the shuffel.

The photo of the truck with “Eat 'em up Fuckers!” on the side and the caption.

I’m sorry, it’s killing me.

Yeah, I liked the caption to go with the delivery lorry; "Frito-Lay delivery people drop off a “bunch of bullshit to some pricks somewhere.” 😛

Heh. Yea, I gotta admit that’s one of the funnier Onion articles I’ve ever read.

That is hilarious. I have a friend that works in our district, and she IS one of those people.

I sent her the link, and will await her somewhat caustic, yet probably damn funny reply.
