my onion horoscope has informed me that malevolent stars will be sending a speeding bus hurtling toward me. good to get a heads up on that.

do you guys have the onion in newspaper dispensers where you live? we've got a ton of them. the onion totally helps get me through the week.

you cannot fathom the mysteries of the human heart, so just sit back and enjoy their chewy texture and meaty savor.

Pfft, I wish. My doses of The Onion come only when I get to the mall or a bookstore.. I just sit down and read the Hell out of those Archived issues.

My favorites, off the top of my head, are:

"Alzheimer's Patients Demand Cure For Pancakes"
"8-Year Old Told To Take It Like A Man"
"New Study Implies The Working Poor Are "F--ked"."

There was a really cool story about how Stephen Hawking invented a robotic exoskeleton that he wears to fight crime.  Onion = roxxorz.

***BAD LANGUAGE WARNING***
I haven't seen the actual Onion newspaper anywhere in my area, but my younger brother turned me on to the website several years back. He bought one of the first "best of" compilation books and the article you mentioned was in there. I remember when we first read it, we were both in tears from laughing so hard.

You always hate it when shows end with a big musical number, so you'll probably be pretty disappointed with what happens to the universe on Wednesday.

That explains why he was knocking at my door.... I told him he had the wrong guy(I'm not a pyromaniac).

I pointed him in the right direction though.

How about Scorpio?

I've never been a fan of The Onion myself...the headlines are often hilarious, but then when you read the actual article, it's just painfully dragging out the humorous concept of the headline into article-length.

Favorite Onion headline:

"Special Olympics T-Ball Stand Pitches Perfect Game"
