"If you're going to draft anybody, you're going to draft the Dungeon & Dragons freaks reacting stuff in the forest."

"But they don't actually have any weapons"

"That's not true. They have wands, Bags of holding...."

Class!

A GREAT day, indeed.

Yeah, I loved the piece about the long overdue arrest of a 'whore-wife' who used sex to extract room and board and grocery money from her own husband for years on end.

Bloody predator, lived off the poor sucker for years.:gundge:

We need more of this kind of hard hitting journalism where the writers are not afraid to call a spade a spade, and happily expose stories the main stream media are too chicken shit to touch. They tell important stories, like the incident with the whore-wife and the previously innocent children who took to satanism after reading Harry Potter (dont say people didnt try to warn you this could happen), not to mention the incident where that harlot of Satan, JK Rawlings turned up drunk to a book signing. These things are more common than we think and reading about it can help solve real life issues that many of us are effected by.

More people should read The Onion which is why the video news is great, not everyone who wants to read the news wants it in a text format so hopefully it'll encourage more readers.:)
