America's Finest News Satire

Once in awhile, we like to feature a classic as The Funny Site of the Day. It's a time to revisit an old favorite and a special opportunity to introduce a treat to the flood of new surfers entering the Net every day.

For my money (mostly in pennies), "The Onion" is the supreme comedy site (well, after the one you're reading, silly). In articles such as "Insane Clown Posse Gets Ride To Concert From Mom," "Lab Rabbit Strongly Recommends Cover Girl Waterproof Mascara For Sensitive Eyes," "Area Homosexual Thinks He's Still In The Closet," "CIA: Syria Harboring More Than 15 Million Known Arabs," and "Chimp Study On Human-Evasion Response To Feces-Hurling Nearly Complete," "The Onion" has it all in the guise of outrageous -- at times, ruthless -- newspaper satire. If this one doesn't make you howl, start feeling for your pulse.

Not intended for persons under 18, there's a categorized archive and a new issue most Wednesdays.
