]]> <![CDATA[Virginia Heffernan Finally Right, Onion News Network Loud and Shrill]]> I do think that she is being less offensive than you make her article out to be, and actually has good things to say about the onion.

But as someone from Madison, who has grown up reading it, the humor is just incredible. Not only do they make real issues a little less serious, but amusing, they manage to make trivial things seem trivial.

To this day it is still refreshing to read something that is what it is. Making fun of celebs, your next door neighbor, and your president. And the "columnists" are awesome!

RIP Kornfeld. Mourn ya till i join ya.

]]> <![CDATA[Virginia Heffernan Finally Right, Onion News Network Loud and Shrill]]> Ummmm... did you read the article? She's being a bit more nuanced than you let on (yes, I'm implying that you misled me, and I would like my pageview back, please).

]]> <![CDATA[Virginia Heffernan Finally Right, Onion News Network Loud and Shrill]]> I prefer the earlier Heffernan. She must have missed the wonderfully absurd ONN broadcast of a mock Congressional committee hearing on H.R. 766: New Technologies Initiative, where the convincingly disgruntled Rep. William Cummings (D-VA) insists on using various forms of the word "pronk" in his testimony supporting additional funding for nanotechnology. It's a scream:

Associate me further with the one known as Cannavale and you shall pay the ultimate price.

]]> <![CDATA[Virginia Heffernan Finally Right, Onion News Network Loud and Shrill]]> And so the mysterious "carnevale" strikes again.
I think I'm just gonna assume you're this dude. And since you're so pretty, you can get away with not knowing how to spell your own name!

]]> <![CDATA[Virginia Heffernan Finally Right, Onion News Network Loud and Shrill]]> Um, not to put too fine a point on it -- but I'm kinda too busy right now being ass raped by the disappearance of any concept of a middle class, any hope of receiving social security should I stay alive that long, the looming depression, the ongoing war and the speedily shrinking lifespan of my own demographic to be much worried about how funny ONN isn't. END (soapbox ranting) SCENE.

Tell all!
