I'm pretty desensitized to crazy internet poo poo at this point so I'm genuinely curious as to how a normal person would react to seeing that.

I think I read an interview with the Onion editors ages ago about how all the writers come up with headline titles for potential articles, and then write those articles based on which headlines were the funniest. It's probably a single person affair once something gets approved unless it's some special case.

I really dislike Starwipe for some reason. Maybe because The Onion and Clickhole set the bar so high? But I think that everything it does, Onion or AV Club do better.

It's neck-deep in Hollywood culture, and I don't think the people who care about that stuff and the people who like The Onion overlap much.

What percentage of that article do you think was prewritten and just waiting for a few key phrases to drop in?

“I’m fully aware that [x] is extremely vile and disturbing, but I want you to know that you’re really best saving your outrage and disgust for some thoughts I still haven’t verbalized yet, believe me,”
