[QUOTE="Bunk, post: 5118581, member: 34238"] I'd agree that it's hit and miss, and that it's trying to ape The Onion. The bit I've bolded in the quote is a bit unfair, IMO. The Onion is one of the most popular sites on the internet. You'd imagine they have a rather sizable staff of researchers / interns, as well as established writers, and access to a huge pool of freelancers submitting stuff to them every day. There's no reason for The Onion not to be right on top of everything. Waterford Whispers is a handful of people, at most, and to be fair to them they publish something new every day, and although they don't always get it totally right, they publish very few articles that are utter shit. Wunderground is awful, mostly because the scene they parody is ridiculous enough in its own right. [/QUOTE]
