I love the News In Briefs at The Onion. Having worked with voice recognition software before, this one made me laugh out loud:

Voice Recognition Software Yelled At
NEW YORK—Fidelity Financial Services' Gwen Watson, 33, shouted angrily at her IBM ViaVoice Pro USB voice-recognition software, sources close to the human-resources administrator reported Monday. "No, not Gary Friedman! Barry Friedman, you stupid computer. BARRY!" Watson was heard to scream from her cubicle. "Jesus Christ, I could've typed it in a hundredth of the time." After another minute of yelling, Watson was further incensed upon looking at her screen, which read, "Barely Freedman you God ram plucking pizza ship."

Something else that made me laugh/cringe was the Personal of the Day. Stargazer4 says: "The five items I can't live without: "Subtext, vodka drinks, cinema, sun, philosophy."

Subtext? What the fuck? Christ, no wonder he can't get a date in person. My list would be Water, Food, Sleep, Shelter, and LiveJournal. But subtext? Jesus. What an idiot.

I can't live without The Onion. My favorite topic search is religion. But just the other day I logged onto CNN and one headline read "Pope says God told him to stay" and I swore I had logged onto The Onion. I have to limit my time reading it when at work because it causes me to laugh out loud uncontrollably.

God save The Onion!
