LOL God bless the Onion. Their stuff is absurd, but due to truth sometimes being stranger than fiction, so often the story is constructed in such a way that it forces you to google it to confirm that it really didn't happen.
Loon- It's parody. The Onion is a faux news reporting site, generally with well done little articles of made up stuff. My current personal favorite was that Justin Bieber was actually a 51 year old man in disguise who was using the persona to get close to early-teenage girls.
