God bless the goddamn Onion

but i still find them very funny

to be honest i cant really think of many sources of comedy which dont use tired old formulas, or rather come up with totally new and hilarious joke formats every time....

I was laughing at this until the very end. That last joke seems unusually mean-spirited for the Onion.

um, the christopher reeve snipe was hardly cricket.

True. I guess that somehow escaped me when I first read it.

I don't get why everybody's blaming the puppy for not being Socialist Realism or somethink.

Ha.

I also really love that every so often there will be an editorial cartoon about the cartoonist's ex-wife.

maybe its crossing the streams too much but if Tim could get Roy Larue involved that would be perfect

apparently Alex Jones has spent the last couple days posting Tim & Eric clips and freaking out about them, suffice to say it's been worth it already

so is this a done deal? Or could a judge put the kybosh on it?

i think it still needs approval

“Marina Abramović“

huh?!?

xp took me a second to realize the joke wasn't supposed to be racism

Abramović is a Pizzagate deep cut!

What?!? How do these people even know who she is?

she was mentioned in one of Tony Podesta’s emails (he’s a collector/patron of contemporary art). look up “spirit cooking”

^^^ in the Clinton emails

Some Believe Marina Abramovic Is the Satanic Ringleader of a Global Political Conspiracy. That’s Ludicrous. But Here’s What They Get Right

https://news.artnet.com/art-world/marina-abramovic-new-world-order-explainer-1838223

Abramović first became the object of the fascination of the online right during the final days of the 2016 election, when the Wikileaks dump of emails from Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta revealed a reference to a “Spirit Cooking” dinner with the artist.

Tony Podesta was asking his brother if he would like to come to the event. John never replied. But old footage of an obscure ’90s Marina Abramović performance called “Spirit Cooking” containing pig-blood graffiti and occult slogans certainly looked spooky.

Out of Shadows rehashes all this, but also views Abramović’s role as extending far beyond evil dinner parties. Indeed, the major smoking gun it finds is the fact that Abramović tutored Lady Gaga in performance art back in 2013—thus making Gaga’s flamboyant stage shows Satanist by extension. One performance-art exercise, in which Gaga was told to enter the woods, strip, and then find her way home, is said to be suspiciously similar to CIA mind-control exercises.

Mind boggling.

Oh god yes

Man, it hurts my throat to hear him talk like that

https://theonion.com/trump-requests-1-2-trillion-to-have

WASHINGTON—Declaring the financial allocation a matter of utmost urgency, President Donald Trump on Monday requested $1.2 trillion to have. “I’m calling upon Congress today to immediately provide me with $1.2 trillion in funding that I currently do not possess but which I will possess once it is given to me,” said Trump, acknowledging that he had previously asked for just $900 billion but was now requesting more so that he would have more. “Even as we speak, I do not have this money, and the only way for me to get it is through swift budgetary action. I’ve gone too long without $1.2 trillion that I’d very much like to have so I can spend it on things I want. It is also possible I’ll want to have more money at a later date, and I will request it then.” At press time, the Senate passed the $1.2 trillion spending measure mostly along party lines, with Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) joining all Republicans in support.

1. Elmo will likely be the first trillionaire by current schedule
2. Some of that $ comes through his exploitation of US govt contracts and information
3. He must therefore be susceptible to direct targeting by Trump Inc (which includes the entire executive branch)
4. Trump is a failure cuck and total weakling if he does not use the entire power of the nation and of his office of president both to enrich himself to being the first trillionaire, and to ruin elmo enough to prevent elmo’s trillion.

this objective— this wonderful, glittering, civilization-defining achievement of domination— should belong to one person only.

The Onion is an American digital media company and newspaper organization that publishes satirical articles on international, national, and local news.
