SUMMARY HAIKU:
No words can really
do The Onion justice. I
strive to write that well.
It's hard to say how I got sidetracked from visiting The Onion's website.
But suddenly, I returned to the fictional news website week and I'm hooked again. It helps take the edge off work stress and real-life depressing news. But the real draw is the sharp wit with which every story and column are written.
Take this commentary on fashion: This Gap Sweater is Fucking Awesome
Or this story: Future of Genteel Town In Jeopardy After Doily Factory Goes Out of Business
And of course, the always-entertaining columns by Herbert Kornfield, the gangsta accounts receivable supervisor at Midstate Office Supply, who hooked me 10 years ago with his column, Keep Your Fucking Shit Off My Desk.
Man, I love the Onion.

I adore Herbert Kornfeld. Also a big, big fan of the pathetically hilarious Jean Teasdale and the seemingly Downs Syndrome-afflicted Jim Anchower. (Really, look at his mug shot.)
Uh, it's me, Danielle.
