The Onion - I Appreciate the Muppets on a Much Deeper Level Than You

[tommytokyo]

A funny Muppet-Related article from The Onion

Hi. Long time lurker, first time poster. I'll preface this by saying The Onion is not intended for those under 18, but this is a very funny article that captures the feel of somebody as obsessed with Muppets as I am. Really insiderish and really funny.

Here's a new "editorial" on The Onion's website which involves the Muppets. Frankly, after a few months of searching out the CDs on eBay, buying the new action figures, and catching up on all the Muppet information I missed since my childhood; it hit a little too close to home:

Heh, good to see some fellow hardcore obsessed Muppet freaks out there. Star Wars, Star Trek, etc all have their freaks...JHC should be proud at all the Farscape freaks...but its good to see all around JHC freaks. Someone should point those obsessed Farscape fans toward a copy of the Muppet Show, and a few of the good movies.

Anyways, we need more folks like this writer!

Yeah, that makes me mad too. It seems like those auto-censors censor everything!

But it doesn't recognise either the Scots spellings or the Gaelic words...

That guy (though he is most probably a fictional character) is the resident geek editorialist. Here are some other articles by him:

LOL that was fantastic. I do love the Onion. The worst part is I actually told someone that they don't appreciate the Muppets on the same level as I do a month or two ago.

So sad. . . .
