An old favourite: New Heart Device Allows Cheney To Experience Love quote:"The vice president broke free from the straps that secured him to the bed and lurched at me as he customarily does following a heart procedure," said Reiner. "But instead of trying to strangle me, he wrapped his arms around me in a hug." quote:Attending a Monday evening GOP fundraiser at the Washington Convention Center, Cheney was accompanied by David Gillian, 6, a young boy he had previously crippled, and by a small fawn who had followed him to the event. ![]()

They put an oldie up on their front page: Activist Judge Cancels Christmas I had forgotten how funny this one was, and how good of a parody it is on the 'war on Christmas' horseshit. The Onion posted:"Why did the bad man take away Christmas?" 5-year-old Danny Dover said. "I made a card for my mommy out of paper and glue, and now I can't give it to her."

Has the War on Christmas™ been waging for over 7 years now? Time flies when you're hating freedom. They've been posting a lot of old Christmas articles today. It's fun. Religious Cousin Ruins Family's Christmas quote:The trouble began for the Langans in early December, when the family was contacted by Krueger, who explained that she was in the Montoursville area for a six-week Bible-study program and looking for a place to spend the holidays. The Langans, who readily welcomed the visiting cousin into their home, were unaware that she had spent a majority of her adult life attending various "personal enrichment programs," converting to a conservative synod of the Lutheran church and gradually alienating all non-Christian members of her social circle. As always, the last line is the best line.

Maybe it says more about me than theonion, but I remember reading this at work when I was doing a traineeship at a roofing company.

Making it Easter in the first place probably would have been better though, yeah.

Jerry Manderbilt posted:America Ends Love Affair With McKayla Maroney After Finding Out She’s 16 The comments on the Onion's Facebook posting for this recently are pretty much as you'd expect. But it DID lead to the Jessica Milly account posting this story: Man Knows Unsettling Amount About Nationwide Age-Of-Consent Laws Which was pretty accurate.

Where does the Onion get their photos for their articles? Do they use stock images or do they take specific photos for each thing? I'm curious because I wonder whether the girl in articles like this know what their photo will forever be associated with.

I'm curious because I wonder whether the girl in articles like this know what their photo will forever be associated with. Can't find where I read it but they take the pictures themselves and they generally use regular people who either have interesting faces (American Voices) or good generic faces that can be photoshopped for different articles.
