Reading the Wikipedia entry for the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band, and, well, there’s this paragraph:
“This original lineup (centred on Stanshall, Slater, Wilkes, Brown, Parkinson, Jennings, saxophonist Claude Abbo and drummer Tom Hedge) soon imploded, however, after flatmates Stanshall, Slater and Parkinson had seriously overspent their Autumn Term's grant money on good food, clothing and musical instruments, which led to their unceremonious eviction in December by their landlord for non-payment of rent (and – thanks to Stanshall's failed attempt at making scrumpy in the bath – damage to the property).”

Work of art, that is.
A frame from the Topper, or the Beezer, or the Dandy, showing Beryl the Peril about to enjoy a slap-up tea of bangers, mash and peas (overcooked and yellowing – presumably Beryl’s mum left them on too long), while Minnie the Minx breaks the fourth wall, saying to readers “PSST! YOU LOT! IM GONNA HAVE A SHARE IN THIS BOOK WHILE BERYL’S BUSY.”

Also this:
Onion headline: Gaywads, Dorkwads Sign Historic Wad Accord Photo shows President Clinton clasping the handshake made by a gaywad in a purple sweater and a dorkwad in a blue T-shirt. Or maybe the one in the purple sweater is a dorkwad and the other one’s a gaywad. Still, all are wads now.

Not a headline, but an American Voices quote.
A quote from the American Voices slot in The Onion, as follows: “I doubt my getting fired from the Dairy Queen is a bellwether of recession, but it sure is a bellwether of I stuck my wang in the butterscotch.” Bob Bardaji • Cashier

Sorry, when you click through they’ve corrected it, but in the initial link it’s still there. Just thought it was very sloppy.
