I don't know if anyone's mentioned this yet - it doesn't seem as if they have - but I found this today. It's pretty funny, but, you know, it is the Onion.

Very funny.
But surely with the amount of female fans, it should be the other way round?
Lucky for us guys...

I have to say, the thing I like about The Onion is that they really research their subject before they do a satirical piece on it. It makes it so much funnier when they actually get the details right, even if the situation is fictional.

That is it! Thats what makes the Onion great! and its what makes those people out there who don't get the joke confused and make fools of themselves by thinking its a real news source, politicians religious groups and other lobbies have all quoted the Onion earnestly then ended up with major egg on their faces
GET A SENSE OF HUMOR! Loved the peice by the way

perhaps the writers of the Onion are fans as well which is why they know the details. If that is so, perhaps the watch farscape advertizing group can get some help from them on getting the word out about the Mini. Whether it be a satirical column or just a little baner somewhere on the page.

I think that sounds like a good idea, the publication is wide, and I know in NYC its extremely popular, might get people interested. We could petition the "AV Club" to do an article on FS!
