Forbin Posted April 29, 2010 The articles need to be edited down to half their length. This just highlights how amazing The Onion is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrobbs Posted April 29, 2010 Kind of Ok. Bit hamfisted and longwinded as mentioned above; the only reason I'm being so harsh is that they read remarkably similar to my own wincingly bad attempts at satire on The Spoof. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snooglebum Posted April 29, 2010 Kind of Ok. Bit hamfisted and longwinded as mentioned above; the only reason I'm being so harsh is that they read remarkably similar to my own wincingly bad attempts at satire on The Spoof.It does get kind of hamfisted after a while, but it definitely has potential.

Xeneth Posted May 3, 2010 ...here's a favorite. Some of the comments are funnier than the original copy- "Multiple scientific studies have demonstrated a clear correlation between a subject’s racism and their performance on counter-terrorism exercises. Subjects who made obscene or hateful comments at a rate of at least once a minute were four times as likely to be capable of seeing through walls and instantly aiming at the center of a target’s head."
