Last Chance posted:Looks like this is a response to some of that controversial tweet business: That's a great response. I'm glad to see them joke about it. And here is a recent one that got the biggest guffaw out of me yet: Sonny Bono Foundation Prevents At-Risk Youths From Skiing Into Trees. I feel sort of bad about laughing at famous people dying stupid deaths, but it is too funny not to.

Wubbles posted:Fun times are over. I thought that this one was funny. The joke is that at that age, the significance of everything is blown way out of proportion. In addition to the Point/Counterpoint articles, I like the advice columns as well. Someone earlier posted the Ask An Elderly Black Woman As Depicted By A Sophomore Creative Writing Major, and some of the more bizarre have included Ask The Voice-Over From The Dukes Of Hazzard, Ask A Frat Brother Who Just Accidentally Drowned A Pledge During A Hazing Gone Horribly Awry, Ask A College Professor Having Trouble With The Audiovisual Equipment, and Ask A Man Who's Jowl-Deep In Phyllis Diller's Pussy. I also like the latest infographic: Dr. Seuss' Lesser-Known Titles. And here is a classic article: Lovecraftian School Board Member Wants Madness Added To Curriculum.

Der Spiegel just published an article titled Dolphins May be Dumber Than We Think. It immediately reminded me of an older article from The Onion titled Study: Dolphins Not So Intelligent On Land
