America's finest news source. I've recently become a huge fan of this awesome show/newspaper. Anyone else into the Onion? What are some of your favorite stories?

I think it's pretty funny. I mainly like the sports section. A recent story said that if you remove statistics for performance enhancing drugs, then Craig Counsell is the all time home run leader with 35 home runs.

I like '98 Homosexual-Recruitment Drive Nearing Goal | The Onion - America's Finest News Source (http://www.theonion.com/content/node/28970), especially since Fred Phelps thought it was real and used it as proof homosexuals have an agenda to take over.
I watch The Onion on YouTube a lot. I'm a fan of 'Multiple Stab Wounds May Be Harmful' (their studies on primates lead us to believe it is if you're curious) and 'Ninja Parade Slips By Town Unnoticed Once Again'.
One of my friends is always linking videos on MSN :D
