I guess it's more satirical news than "fake news" (I would consider the National Enquirer or Fox News to be actual fake news).
Bad phrasing on my part.

Polysics are the best vocoder-rocking band ever.

Second best "duh" moment of the year for this board (first being batreleaser downloading the eternal and reviewing it on here -- but it was actually a mislabeled copy of the destroyed room).

It's understandable, suchfriends.

When I first discovered TheOnion (about 2 years back) I took the video article I was watching seriously. It was about a porn starlet calling her co-star a "nigger" while he was fucking her. They included interviews with disappointed "fans" who were boycotting her videos :P

atsonicpark 08.11.2009 08:21 AM

Hah. I saw a Lex scene recently where the chick yelled "FUCK ME YOU FUCKING NIGGER!" and he started screaming and killing her asshole with his dick.

I laughed, I cried, I came.
