We don't want to come at people too harshly for getting wooshed by ambiguous jokes or falling for a fake headline that sounds like it could be totally real, but everyone should know what The Onion is by now. Most satirical news publications these days have the words satire, or fake, or not real news written somewhere to make the joke totally fool-proof. Well, never underestimate a fool. Despite how long The Onion has been around (since 1988, that's almost a quarter of a decade!), people still fall prey to its deadpan yet ridiculous headlines. It makes us question their intelligence. But hey, we do that all the time to post people who decide to post stuff online. Since this kind of stupidity occurs fairly regularly, we've got a bunch of great examples of times people fell for satire and 'ate the onion,' so to speak. Big ups to stupid people. You make us laugh.
