I’ve been a fan of the Onion for years, and I’m glad they’re keepin’ it up while everybody else is so wierded out right now.

I liked last week’s “Terrorists Surprised to Find Selves In Hell” That was just funny.

Amen to that.  
I still remember my first Onion reading. It was 1996 and there was a copy on top of the toliet at the co-op my girlfriend was living at in Ann Arbor. I immediately thought it was the funniest thing I’d ever seen. I haven’t missed an issue since.
