This is my favorite Onion piece. It reminds me of how much BS is posted on community based web forums.

Open-Minded Man Grimly Realizes How Much Life He's Wasted Listening To Bulls**t

"Jesus Christ," said Richman, taking in the overwhelming volume of useless crap he's actively listened to over the years. "My whole life I've made a concerted effort to give people a fair shake and understand different points of view because I felt that everyone had something valuable to offer, but it turns out most of what they had to offer was complete bulls**t."

"Seriously," Richman added, "what have I gained from treating everyone's opinion with respect? Nothing. Absolutely nothing."

Too bad the Onion Network TV series seemed to flop. I thought it would be a fun way to watch the news.

Could be, but when I say "clueless", it's that they have no idea that the onion is a fake paper. You have to admit, they do a great job sometimes of making something fake sound real.
