#120 I Hate The Onion

Phantom Penguin

on Dec. 16, 2007

For those of you who don't know The Onion is kind of a fake newspaper/website that parodies real stories and sometimes makes some up. Around this time of the year news stations and other channels broadcast messeges from the troops overseas saying happy holidays to their loved ones. The Onion I guess thought this was fucking hilarious and decided to make a video lampooning this. Having the 'soldiers' carryingh signs saying "help me" while giving emotionless remarks like "everything is fine over here".

heres one of many of the videos:

And no they are not real. If troops said anything like that, we would be thrown in jail.
