[Benjamin Plume]

The onion is classic, and has humor from the low-brow to the way above most folks' heads.

[Jimyanni]

This book is a collection of spoof, "Harvard Lampoon" style, irreverent "newspaper articles", poking fun at some standards of the newspaper trade. What is particularly amazing about this is that not only do they fill an entire book with spot-on parodies of headlines, but in most cases, they actually write the article that goes with the headlines, and remain just as spot-on in their parodies. (In a few cases, all we see is headlines with fake "see story on page xx" tags.) The one way in which their parodies are NOT perfect is that they are actually BETTER written and edited than real newspaper stories; I found NO typos in the entire book. So not only are they hilariously funny, they're also COMPETENT.

The Onion is always good for a few laughs. My buddy Lucas and I enjoyed reading these together.
