Spaceman Spiff Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Hey, where's LaParkaMarka's post?
Dobbs 3K Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 OK, so sue me, but that was funny. http://www.theonion.com/content/node/42767
Mole Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Okay I read the title of the article and I'm not reading it.
treble Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Guyz, sign my on-line petition to get the Onion kicked off the internet. Thanx.
Placebo Effect Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 That's why I don't like The Onion. The idea behind the article is humorous, but nothing in the actual article is. People who are offended by this kind of stuff need to step back and realize that they didn't even know Eddie.
Golgo 13 Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 So when do we rename the folder "Frivolous Eddie Guerrero Shit"
LaParkaMarka Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Spaceman Spiff usurped the first post. I'll be back Spiff...I'll be back.
Hoff Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 That's why I don't like The Onion. The idea behind the article is humorous, but nothing in the actual article is. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> THANK YOU. I've been reading the Onion for years, and every now and then they hit on a winner, but mostly it's like they had good ideas and then just gave up.
The Czech Republic Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Yeah this would've been a better picture with a caption, and nothing else. Just the premise on its own would've been effective. Atomsk, you stole my line.
Guest Ste The Man Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 This is my first post on this site, I found it by searching for marks for fun, then i searched marks are idiots, then smarks and I found this. That Eddie story is on the other forum I usually go on. The story is stupid. Does anyone ever use wrestleview.com forums???
areacode212 Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 Yeah, what Placebo Effect said. Funny idea, but the article was just way too long. It would've been better as one of those "News in Brief" pieces. These days, I think the writing in the Onion A.V. Club is funnier than in the main paper.
The Czech Republic Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 This is my first post on this site, I found it by searching for marks for fun, then i searched marks are idiots, then smarks and I found this. That's unusual, one would think you'd find this place under "idiots"
Gary Floyd Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 I gotta agree. The headline is funny, but the article itself isn't that funny. Granted, I think The Onion is hit and miss: When it hits, it really hits, but when it misses, it really misses. This one was a miss.
Hoff Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 These days, I think the writing in the Onion A.V. Club is funnier than in the main paper. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I do too, but not for the reasons they would like.
Mystery Eskimo Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 How did they manage to write so much with so few jokes? Seems almost like a talent in itself.
Guest JMA Posted November 18, 2005 Report Posted November 18, 2005 I gotta agree. The headline is funny, but the article itself isn't that funny. Granted, I think The Onion is hit and miss: When it hits, it really hits, but when it misses, it really misses. This one was a miss. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have pretty much the same view.
