Is there a way to disable the giant paywall popup thing? You can just reload the page and stop it before it loads, but that's a pain and it doesn't work for videos.

My version of Firefox has a neat little thing that stops auto-reloading.

Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Accessibility > Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page.

It's a bit of a pain on forums but otherwise has saved me a ton of grief.

Is this on youtube or something because I saw this on my facebook feed 2 weeks ago and couldn't get the link to work. I googled it and couldn't get the link to work, this link doesn't work. I clicked on it from their website and the link doesn't work. It all just goes to a blank white page.
I wanna see this!

I came to the thread to post this, it's brutal and amazing. One of the tougher to read onion articles.

Oh man you're not even joking.

quote:

As frenzied convention-goers bandied the Marine’s body around the arena like a beach ball, the show continued on stage with Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) invoking scripture to scare a pregnant teenager out of having an abortion while a scale model of a Planned Parenthood clinic burned in the background.

Eliciting one of the biggest cheers of the night, House Speaker John Boehner then hog-tied an inner-city welfare recipient and backhanded him over and over until he promised to work harder and provide for his family instead of relying on government handouts.

There goes Romney, I guess.

I wish. If anything this just makes his supporters more adamant about voting for him. "He's gonna show those freeloaders what's what!"

Bigger Than Jesus

We would like to apologize for stating last week that The Onion is “bigger than Jesus.” What we meant to imply is that The Onion is more important and influential than Jesus, not that our newspaper is in any way physically larger than He was. We regret any confusion.

I didn't find the tweet funny but just seems kind of odd that they apologized over that when they have stuff like a photoshopped Google homepage about 9/11 and a "top ten cutest child soldiers" slide show.
