Talk:Our Dumb Century
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Too bad it's not for real. Reading the excerpts on The Onion web page, I thought it was for a while. I was very impressed, thinking this must have been one of the most radical and independent publications of all time. I was quite surprised it was not widely recognized as such. But then it started to look too good to be true and I came here to check...
- Too bad what's not for real? The book? Because the book is sitting about three feet away from me right now, and if I'm operating on the assumption that the input of my senses constitutes reality, which is admittedly a big assumption, then I must come to the conclusion that the book is real. Either that or I'm hallucinating it, and have had false memories implanted of me reading it for some inexplicable reason. Or do you mean it's too bad that the events chronicled in the book aren't for real? Well, that would be... interesting, yes. 68.33.44.208 03:03, 14 August 2005 (UTC)
- I think he actually thought that The Onion was actually printed from 1900 through 2000, which in and of itself is _incredibly_ funny!!!!! Family Guy Guy 01:42, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Headline formatting, etc.
So even though this talk page obviously isn't used much, I'm going to ask a question. The headlines in this article are written in all caps, which is obnoxious and incorrect, as far as I'm aware. Even though headlines are sometimes written in all caps in the newspaper itself, I think when they are reproduced they're supposed to be formatted standardly. So does anyone care is I change them to regular? --Natalie 00:09, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
