The Onion, the only news satire website that should be made required reading in every school, has pulled off a major coup -- they've plucked a real reporter, Suzanne Sena, from Fox News and added her to their Onion News Network, according to Media Bistro. 

You can see Sena's first video here and judge for yourself how different news satire really is from the actual news.

Neil Patrick Harris is a self-deprecating legend. Sure, he started his career in a somewhat self-serious role as the titular character of the child genius-becomes doctor drama Doogie Howser MD, but Harris found a second wind in his career mocking Doogie Hoswer AND himself in Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle (and its sequel). Well, now the prince of self-mockery has taken the next logical step and joined Twitter. And the results are FANTASTIC!

Here are some sample tweets:

My first tweet, peeps. I apologize in advance for my slow learning curve. Nice to (sort of) meet you. It's amazing how quickly 140 charac

(The joke being that Twitter only allows 140 characters per "tweet" and Neil, in his amazement of that 140 character limit, ran out of characters and cut off himself mid-sentence).

(The joke there? What if a well-spoken, well-educated actor wrote like a 12-year-old girl texting away on her first cell phone?)

The popular (and profane) Twitter account Shit My Dad Says is now being turned into a CBS sitcom (and a book!), according to The Hollywood Reporter.

If you're not familiar with Justin Halpern's truly hilarious twitter account, you don't know what you're missing -- the 29-year-old (formerly) down-on-his-luck writer transcribes funny, crazy, weird and just plain wild stuff his 73-year-old father says and posts it onto his twitter account.

At 140 characters (or less), Halpern gives us glimpses of his cantankerous (but loving) father. His father's loving (but often biting) words to his son have proved resonant -- the account has over 700,000 followers and Halpern has a book and TV deal.

This is not unprecedented. The blog Stuff White People Like was turned into a best-selling book and its creator, Christian Lander, has appeared on TV several times.

My question for Shit My Dad Says is this -- what's the show's censor-friendly new title going to be?

Sure, fashion, music and movies from the 1980s might be in style right now. But no one wants to do those crazy '80s aerobic workouts. Especially none called "The Body Flex Daily Workout". Because while we'd love to shed pounds doing as little work as possible, I think we've learned in the last 20 or so years that sticking our tongues out is not gonna cut it as a replacement for the elliptical.

The Wildlife Conservation Society has a really, really cute video up right now of a snow leopard playing with a jack-o'-lantern at the Central Park Zoo.

This video is the kind of thing best enjoyed on the Internet because while it's adorable, I really wouldn't want a snow leopard messing around with a pumpkin on my front lawn. That would be terrifying.

The message board b3ta.com has a great post where they challenge their readers to create movie poster mashups. My favorites include the Yellow Submarine/Das Boot (pictured above) and this Peter Pan/Pulp Fiction mashup. Tinkerbell is a bad girl!

English Russia has a pretty wonderful gallery of a ridiculous "plane bar" that's been erected in Russia. I'd totally go there to grab a drink if I wasn't scared the whole thing was going to fall apart. Yikes!

Here's my caption: "Halloween costume? You kidding me? The monster won't let me out of the cage to go to the bathroom, let alone put on a costume!"

Ultimate Guitar put together this pretty funny list of the Top 10 Creepiest Album Covers. My favorite choice is the cover to the Herbie Mann album Push Push:

It's midnight and you've just returned home from a long day at work. You open the door to your bedroom and all you see is this naked guy, standing there waiting for you in the dark, holding a flute.

That really IS creepy.
