Hey, visitors to the mothership have been warning us about this for years!!

At least we're on the way up again.

"Experts predict that the penultimate catastrophe will occur at approximately 7:15 p.m. Thursday night, when the social networking tool Twitter will be used to communicate a series of ideas so banal they will instantaneously negate the three centuries of the Renaissance."

I love The Onion. Thanks for posting.

Probably some illiterate recommending Hip Hop.

Hmmm....7:15 Thursday night is about when RR goes up every week, EST.

Um ... isn't that about when I wrote & posted my Dolorean justification thread for *gasp* Laziness topic?!?!?

I'd like to nominate "Africa" by Toto.

If you liked Baconnaise and Jimmy Dean's Hot Dog On A Stick, you'll like Push Up Macaroni & Cheese, and Pizza with everything.

Remember in The Jerk when "Pizza in a cup" was a big joke?

This also probably didn't help.

I love The Onion. So many of their gags are so obvious once they've said it.
I liked the one this week about Obama's teleprompter conking out during family dinner.

Speaking of falling standards, Mrs Tin has been watching I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here, and how cruel is that show? We should have the theme for that on the desperation A list; if I ever get that desperate for attention, please shoot me.

Wifeswap was pretty demeaning I thought, but I've been thinking they could sorta combine wifeswap, wifemakeover and the dance ones and do a Strictly Come Poledancing.

Pardon me for sounding like a broken record but although I do find The Onion funny, the British equivalent is more my sort of humour:

News Biscuit
