What exactly are they protecting, do you suppose?

If now we post an excerpt and a link, will that make them happy?

For the life of me I can't understand how posting something on a web site is the equivalent of planting a rare flower and enclosing it with fencing - it is not as though we can pluck the petals.

Jim, you've had a long run, but it is beginning to look as though you have become a convenient target.

Most of the Onion's stuff is juvenile drivel, sort of a poor man's Mad magazine approach to "journalism."

I, for one, promise never to paste a complete Onion, I won't even proffer a single slice.

Onions make me cry, anyway.

They are not only not as funny, they're taking themselves too seriously.
