Oh, I couldln’t get past this one: Ways to Teach Uninformed People. If only there were a way. Nobody would vote Republican OR watch Fox!
Elyse,
Good point. Then again, your example could also differentiate the difference between the uninformed and the misinformed. Thanks for stopping by and sharing.
Gotta love the Onion! Being the twisted individual that I am, I just had to go search out the story behind item 4. Hilarious – might just have to post that video! I’ll link back to you if I do
Izaak,
Oh my … an accompanying video would be a hoot. Meanwhile, I would be great to be at The Onion office for a day! Thanks for stopping by.
Hell, I’d be happy if their site would just accept my email subscription! What’s up with that?
Ha ha … but I’ve never subscribed as I just go there on my regular rounds.
The Onion is great–and thanks for posting these. I am torn between the Aunt Sally phone call and carefully weighing one side of an argument. The last one is especially intriguing because so many people seem to not even do that much, just watch the news and accept whatever is presented.
Patti,
This collection offers a variety. I like the group from the one side of argument to the anthropologist. Glad you found some amusement here. Thanks for visiting and commenting.
HI,
I couldn’t stop laughing after I read number 4, that just blew me away.
I noticed in the link to the photo, that a lot of the telephone numbers underneath was gone, it seems others were also impressed by the picture.
Mags,
The things robots can do simply continues to amaze me! Glad you enjoyed these and thanks for visiting.
The Onion has been having fun with Biden for a while. I remember them posting pics of him washing his t-top camaro in the whitehouse driveway.
Thanks, Frank
Guapo,
I remember that one too. As a matter of fact, here it is. http://www.theonion.com/articles/shirtless-biden-washes-trans-am-in-white-house-dri,2718/ Thanks for commenting.
i have a friend who posts headlines from the onion, and we laugh as others reply without realizing it’s just a joke. that’s the best.
Whenever I hear of young girls realizing how beautiful they are, I feel wonderful. Young girls really need to know their self worth and how beautiful they will always remain. Loved that frank
Kay,
Yes – but as long as they don’t use it to chastise others … but I know what you mean. Thanks for visiting.
LOl @ Biden Pins Up Guitar Lesson Flyer on White House Bulletin Board (and the picture was priceless)!
Spinny,
When I first saw that headline an pic last week I lost it … and thought, “Spinny will love this one.” The paper with tear-off numbers cracked me up. Thanks for stopping by.
