User reviews

What a spleen splitter! I love #TheOnion and with this great extension I can now apply the same witty Onion humor to those news outlets that claim to be reporting actual news. The sad truth is many of @TheOnion articles blend right into those of @TheNewYorkTimes and @TheWashingtonPost. The confusion on readers faces is priceless!

Absolutely hilarious and brilliant. Great for anyone needing a witty pick-me-up when reading the news.
