    Kelly's editorial cartoons are among my favorite parts of The Onion.

    Most recent.


    This one's awesome.

    Ha!

    Hillary Clinton Launches Intimidating New Fragrance Line

    CHAPPAQUA, NY—Unveiling a bold scent described by its manufacturer as "steely, bracing, and curt, with notes of patent leather, sandalwood, and wool serge," Secretary of State Hillary Clinton launched her own line of soaps, eaux de toilette, and body splashes Thursday. The new fragrance, called "Authorité," was designed to evoke the olfactory equivalent of sensible shoes clicking purposefully down a marble-tiled hallway. "Our distinguished parfumeurs—and, more importantly, Madame Secretary—have created exactly the right tone, a scent that brooks no argument," spokesperson Etienne Falbaum said. "This is a controlled, competent, and, above all, patient essence that makes men sit up, take notice, and not speak until spoken to." Advertising inserts scented with Authorité will be featured in upcoming editions of Elle, The Economist, and The New York Review of Books.

    Vindictive Movie Studio Threatens To Make 'Coyote Ugly' Sequel

    Zaiff emphasized that even the most discerning movie fans will have little choice but to watch the new film.

    "And for all you snobby fucks who say you wouldn't come within a mile of this fucking movie, we've got plans for you, too," Zaiff said. "You're not safe from this shit-show. Who's your favorite actor? Frank Langella? Malkovich? How about John-fucking-Malkovich? We'll dangle so much money in front of his face he'll sell out faster than a five-dollar whore."

    "Just try us," Zaiff continued. "I swear to God, I will personally dig up Stanley Kubrick's rotting corpse and attach him to this project myself if I have to."
    Read the whole thing. You won't be sorry.

    the last line is powerful. and it's actually even more relevant in retrospective.

    There was a time a couple years back that I stopped rading The Onion because it was a little too spot-on about the depressing state of the world, and basically every article was making me cry.

    That's awesome.

    Reminds me of the time one of my favorite modern-day theologians said "I'm pretty sure than when Jesus said to 'love your enemies,' he meant 'don't kill them.'"

    Libertarian Reluctantly Calls Fire Department

    CHEYENNE, WY—After attempting to contain a living-room blaze started by a cigarette, card-carrying Libertarian Trent Jacobs reluctantly called the Cheyenne Fire Department Monday. "Although the community would do better to rely on an efficient, free-market fire-fighting service, the fact is that expensive, unnecessary public fire departments do exist," Jacobs said. "Also, my house was burning down." Jacobs did not offer to pay firefighters for their service.

    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Um... dude... The Onion just went to 11.

    Along with a perfectly funny article; New Netpix Service Sends Unlimited Photographs For Monthly Fee, they have actually set up a Netpix website.

    Must. See.

    EDIT: I signed up, just to see what would happen.

    Wow. Those are hardcore lengths. Hilarious though. "Great" pictures of national landmarks.
