The Best of The Onion

The Onion is likely the funniest satire newspaper ever written. Here are eleven favorites:

11) Christ Returns to NBA This isn't quite on par with King Missle's "Jesus Was Way Cool", but the photo of him dunking is great.

10) Al Qaeda Also Fed Up With Ground Zero Construction Delays I was a bit skeptical of their new video segments, but they've had some winners. This one is hysterical.

9) Political Cartoon Even More Boring And Confusing Than Issue I love the ire professed in this one.

8) Weekly Radio Address: March 18, 2006: Domestic Security Really, the dude shoplifted from Target. That part is not a joke.

7) Coca-Cola Introduces New 30-Liter Size This article came up time and time again in my job in the CPG industry. Professor Edmund Tillerton really summed this move up well.

6) College Binge Drinking: What Do You Think? Daryl Woodley's response is just amazing. But they changed the photos on this! I swear to you in the original publication, Daryl had the same photo as Rich Durban in this one.

5) Fuck Everything, We're Doing Five Blades Another one that tied in very well to my job, it was only a matter of time until the Onion would be proven right here. Ah, to be living in simpler times with simpler razors.

4) Top Halloween Costumes, Women 18-34 I could have sworn they had "Sexy Corpse" on here, but I guess I remembered it wrong. Perhaps that should be added to the list.

3) Weekly Radio Address: January 28, 2006 "Listen to the terror."

2) I Look Back On My Boxing Career With Greebert A punch drunk fighter sums up his professional life. I about died laughing the first time I read this.

1) Bush: 'Our Long National Nightmare Of Peace And Prosperity Is Finally Over' Downright prophetic.
