Poll: The Onion: Best.Website.Ever.

[ajh93]

if you haven't already seen this:

http://www.theonion.com/articles/republicans-vote-to-repeal-obamabacked-bill-that-w,19025/#enlarge

this is so dead on it's scary.

 

[The Cheezy One]

Apart from the Eascapist obviously *cough*
Although I will admit they are very good

 

[DustyDrB]

Well, I agree. Discussion: What's your favorite Onion article?

Mine:

Spoiler: Zombie Nutritionist Recommends All-Brain Diet

This one. [http://www.theonion.com/articles/zombie-nutritionist-recommends-allbrain-diet,1391/]

The main site isn't where I spend most of my time, though.
The AV club [http://www.avclub.com/] is my favorite source for finding good music, books, and I enjoy their TV show reviews (the reviews for Heroes were hilarious in their brutal negativity). They've got good writers all over the place there.

 

[Fanta Grape]

While I usually find the onion pretty boring (really well written, just not that interesting to me) this is GOLD.

 

[icyneesan]

What do you mean, the Escapist Magazine is the best website ever. Ha-ha-ha-ha
help me
Ha-ha-ha. Long live the Escapist.

Also the poll isn't working

 

[Purple Shrimp]

I usually like the Onion but anti-Republican satire is pretty stale by this point

 

[Thaluikhain]

Eh...sorta funny, but not great.

 

[Kamunt]

My personal favorite would be this one [http://www.theonion.com/articles/man-who-enjoys-thing-informed-he-is-wrong,7057/]. And it applies to so many aspects of life, it hurts.
And boy, is that article spot-on.

 

[Hader]

Ah the Onion, too many good articles to name man.

One fairly recent one I am quite partial too though:
http://www.theonion.com/video/in-the-know-is-pundit-duncan-birch-a-worthless-idi,18591/

Edit: this is an Onion classic: http://www.theonion.com/video/sony-releases-new-stupid-piece-of-shit-that-doesnt,14309/

 

[badgersprite]

Heh. That is funny. My Dad would like that.

I have to say, I like them best when their comedy is dark and their satire is biting.

This [http://www.theonion.com/articles/more-americans-falling-for-get-rich-slowly-over-a,5101/] would have to be my one of my favourites.
