I’m not one of those people who complain that the Onion is horrible these days, and it’s lost its edge, or whatnot. But I do have to say that this week’s issue is unusually funny, and reminded me strongly of why I became a fan in the first place.

The Rumsfeld article is the highlight, of course, but I also laughed hysterically at the crazy man with the advanced physics knowledge and the “Disinterest Group” article - especially that picture.

Great stuff!
