Once in a while the Onion comes up with a real gem like this one.

Sure it's the Onion, but in this case, it's dead on true.

The Onion is a national treasure.

BEHOLD!!!:

"resting his feet on a coffee table cluttered with unpaid bills, crusted cereal bowls, and bongwater-stained Frederic Bastiat, F.A. Hayek, and Ludwig von Mises pamphlets."

With a little sleight of hand, I've turned it into a LIBERTINES' apartment.

If only this book were true!

"The history of society is the inexorable history of class struggle," said sixth-year undergraduate Kirk Dorff, 23, resting his feet on a coffee table cluttered with unpaid bills, crusted cereal bowls, and bongwater-stained socialist pamphlets.

ROFLOL! Especially w/ the photo of the kitchen sink!

Reminds me of what we face every few months or so. HRP

At the end of my sophomore year, I was indoctrinated during a school trip to the most western part of Virginia in the Appalachian mountains and became a Socialist.  (Mind you the year before I just turned 18 in time to vote for Ronald Reagan's second term!)

In my junior year, I moved out of the dorm and into a small, 3 bedroom house with 2 other guys from the dorm.

We really did try this exact experiment!

However, it quickly disintegrated along the lines as described in this article.  Eventually, I wound up cleaning the bathroom most of the year since if I didn't, it would have been taken over by crud.  I hoarded my food and kept clean dishes and flatware in my room.

Perhaps it was because I was an only child that made me think this would work but I can tell you now, I became a rabid conservative after that experience.

Needless to say, none of us were roommates the next year!

[El Sordo]

Funny.

An instant classic, one of their best. I also thought last week's lobster commentary was a gem.

This isn't a perfect analogy - but it fits for those fictional socialists.

Looked like a pretty expensive guitiar(sp) in the back ground! Was that a capitalist present? Ah Dah! heheheheh
