kbordson 8 #4 August 20, 2008 OH COME ON!!! SNOPES for an Onion article?! WTF! It's the Onion... OF COURSE it's NOT real! The SNOPES page shoulda just said "It's the Onion." and left it at that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt I will ever convince you that I knew that this was fake from the beginning, but I was aware of that fact when I made the post. It is worth having you forever believe I was taken in by The Onion just to confirm that you'd believe I was really that thick. For the record, the very first time I ever became aware of The Onion was when I followed this link: http://www.theonion.com/content/node/28259 and, not knowing what they were about, gave it momentary credence. That was also the last time I believed an Onion story.Spirits fly on dangerous missions Imaginations on fire Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
colkikinit 0 #14 August 21, 2008 Quote believe I was taken in by The Onion just to confirm that you'd believe I was really that thick. Its not so far fetched, heck the GOP has convinced you ditto heads of much more outlandish things, and The Onion puts on a show that is FAR more plausible than what the RepublaFoxnewsicans put on the air. take a deep breath, relax and don't clinch your teeth together, it will all be over in a couple of minutes...
