Well shit, an Onion article made me cry

The Mars Rover article remains my favourite.

The Onion doesn't have to be funny all the time.

I didn't LOL at the bye-bye box story but it did amuse my butt.

I think "Bye Bye Box" would make a great electro rock band name. I would not go see them but I would do blow with their girlfriends, if they provided it.

This isn't funny at all. It's disturbing. Fucked up. Mean and unfunny.

If this horseshit indicates the general quality of the Onion nowadays they should pack it in.

Life...life...I know it's got its ups and downs.

I've been reading the Onion for at least a decade now, and it's always had articles like that. The "Ugly Girl Killed" one gets me whenever I read it.

At least they could have made the article a comment on the war by having "Daddy" get killed over in Iraq or something. Terminal cancer jokes usually don't win anybody over, although I thought this article was a funny jab at the "power" of positive thinking.

I hardly ever read an entire Onion article anymore. There's nothing wrong with it, I just feel like I know where every story is going. I did get a kick out of this one about Bill Walsh. But no one thinks what I find funny is funny.

I thought this was amazing, mostly for the reasons that everyone else hated it.

Counterpoint:

I am a Dad and I thought the article was hilarious. The Onion gets some things wrong but sometimes, like this one, they really hit it out of the park much like the headline right after 9/11 I believe it was "Holy Shit!."
