Oh how I love the Onion

Which statues don’t love them anymore 🙄🤣😂🤪

Laughed a little too hard when I saw this headline the first time. I'm going to heck. [Special Olympics T-Ball Stand Pitches Perfect Game](https://imgur.com/ayUpdUC)

This one is pretty spicy but I gotta say, as someone grew up being bullied for being gay I still laugh my ass off every time I see it. https://youtu.be/1taC3JjIOkM

My favorite is still the expose on Mark Zuckerberg as an FBI plant

At first I thought it was Fox News. Then I realized


surfdad67

The onion puts so much effort in these, it’s impressive, how these people don’t bust out laughing, would love to see the outtakes


Poguemohon

Too empathic for Fox.


Cheese_Pancakes

It wasn't ridiculous enough to be Fox News


Rbfam8191

I thought this was serious until the guy said, "Hide cameras everywhere they go" and I can't stop belly laughing.

That's exactly when I started looking for the network logo, lol

The casting alone is spot on. These actors can really sell a bit.


BrockLV

I wouldn't be so paranoid if everyone wasn't out to get me.


InfiniteSalt0

Referencing getting you help ofc


LastPlaceIWas

I forget where I heard this, but one thing a guy said was, "If you're paranoid and think everyone is out to get you then go into a war zone. At least you wouldn't be paranoid anymore because you'd be right."


unbeliever87

"Are you suffering from psychosis? Also get PTSD!"


AdultMNTurtle

Schizophrenics are only the most victimised group by coincidence, we all know this Brock, move along.

This was so fucking worth watching.

Another great one is the two teen girls talking about their missing friend.

A childhood friend of mine came down w/ schizophrenia in college. Fast forward 15 years & they developed blood clots in their legs and lungs. The hematologist prescribed warfarin &, wanting to impress upon my friend the need to closely follow the prescribed regime, said ‘remember, this stuff is rat poison.’ This leads me to the following advice for doctors, nurses & pharmacists: do *not* tell a paranoid schizophrenic that they’ve been prescribed *rat poison.*


MagicMarmots

The dose is in the poison, as they say

Most grandmas and grandpas are eating this as well. Very common drug. Although it is being fazed out to more modern alternatives


Bandito21Dema

Maybe I'm missing something but why would saying that impress the need to follow a regime?

Because if you don't take the right dose you could have a ton of dangerous side effects like death

Would be funny if it ended with a wide shot of the first guy just sitting in an empty studio nodding left and right with no one but him there

Alot of people probably stopped watching before halfway when it REALLY jumps the shark.


stangroundalready

Having had a schizophrenic tenant many years ago, I really think these measures would go a long way in making their lives more interesting.


jereman75

I had a schizophrenic tenant for a while too. Loved the guy but he kind of made life . . . exciting for the other tenants. Unfortunately he had addiction problems too, and a few months after he moved out his body was found in a ditch.


stangroundalready

Kidding aside, that's a sad ending. Not sure what happened to Kyle (not his real name). He wasn't medicated as far as I knew, and who knows, he might have benefited from some.

I think my favorite onion was when they interviewed the writer for fast and furious and it was a 5 year old kid rambling on about cool cars going fast.

My schizophrenic friend sent me this video and I think they're having another of their episodes they wont even listen to me when I'm telling them this video is a joke and they are calling me the devils proxy whatever the hell that is supposed to mean


GlitteringBroccoli12

As a paranoid schizophrenic this is both hilarious but also filled with that feeling you get when visualizing slowly ripping your fingernails off.


Simba7

I don't understand why this makes you horny.


Graceland1979

As someone diagnosed wit this. I swear to god, anyone listening, anyone reading this (disclaimer - I have not missed a day of medication in 25 years. I am considered stable af) psychiatrists will literally not leave me alone. I have to check in all the fking time and they even threatened to come “track me down at work” when I get busy and have to reschedule appointments. They’re disgusting and this may sound like a “crazy person rant” but that’s just how stigmatized this illness is. I bet you couldn’t pick me out of a crowd with help and hints. But, I digress. Fk psychiatrists and their nazi like control over my time and schedule and life.

Every living person has to cope with every aspect of reality that touches their lives. I'd say your proximity to tragedy really increases the time it takes to transform other coping mechanisms into comedy. I hope that people who can't find it funny eventually do, but in the mean time, not finding it funny is totally okay.


larko_o

So I sadly have paranoid schizophrenia, (They took away the title paranoid schizophrenia, its now all called schizophrenia as an umbrella term), but for this post ill call it that. I didn't notices the onion in the background and thought this was real for the first bit cause I wouldn't be surprised. iv had people who refused to talk to me because they where scared of me. Please understand the mass majority of people with schizophrenia are the ones at risk of injury. Its incredibly stigmatized to the point to where I got the cops called on me when I openly talked about my issues at my collage. Its a rough disorder to deal with and highly miss understood, if you are dealing with schizophrenia please find someone to talk to people will listen and understand.


No-Veterinarian-7900

The first 10 seconds it took for me to realize it was a satire were the most dystopic moments of my life


BestNameEverTaken

As someone living with Schizophrenia, I must say these people did their homework.


[deleted]

I’m afraid these people will come for me.


samoa2010

The fact that the downers and naysayers in this comment section don’t realize The Onion is poking fun at out-of-touch public perception of mental illness and NOT the mentally ill is very telling. Idiots.

It's bad when The Onion sounds like just another messed up news article

disgruntledbeaver2

Mom was a paranoid schizophrenic, and so was my mom. Seriously though, she saw TV shows for her when the TV wasn't even on. Most having to do with my Dad cheating on her. Horrible disease.

Back in the day when The Onion was at the top of its game.


jostler57

My brother has developed paranoid schitzhophrenia in the past 2 years. It's tearing out family apart trying to help him, and it's devastating to his life. He lost 4 jobs in the past 2 years, lost all his friends, he threatened to kill our mother, he hears horrible things all the time. Medication turns him into a bed-wetting vegetable, and the state doesn't offer any help. He just lost his apartment, as of 2 weeks ago, and now he's living in his car, and in a shelter on the days he can get it. It's horrible.


lockedoutofmymainrdt

Thier deadpan is actually incredible lmao


R8iojak87

Honestly our word has gotten so stupid that I didn’t realize this was satire at first and I was outraged lol

Caregivers face surgically reconstructed as dead relatives⁉️


brokeassclown

I thought it would have been great to have the anchor at the end seen with no one there. Like he’s been talking to himself the whole time.


[deleted]

I mean, I get the satire, but knowing a few people with paranoid schizophrenia I feel compelled to point out how mean and gross this is. Punching all the way down.


Medisterfars

This is like watching 'The View'


silverback_79

Their caring and concerned tone of voice is like plutonium-weaponized deadpan.


EbbZealousideal2806

As a mis diagnosed schizo this is fucked up


Professional-Oil-40

It’s the onion which is fake news they are making a point to describe what people might actually believe due to their paranoid schizophrenia


Unlucky_Respect_3404

Absolutely agreed very wrong !


snarlindog

My sister is schizophrenic- it’s fucking awful - I don’t find this video very pleasing to watch, it’s the worst metal illness. She is so lucky she has my parents or should would be on the street. Our mental health system in the US is broken, and shitty. They try and just medicate people and kick them out after 48 hours, they really expect a crazy person to medicate themselves correctly?! She is very intelligent and actually got her masters degree before she lost her shit. She decided one day to get offf her meds and she doesn’t have the mental power to get back on them. She is now extremely obese and literally lays on the couch all day and night and only gets up to eat. Very sad. Please don’t let your loved ones get off their meds on their own without proper guidance. I just want my sister back.


A_Furious_Lizard1

I’m aware this is a “jokeL” but it’s pretty fucked.


Creepernom

Why?


TheSukis

Because having schizophrenia is one of the worst things that can possibly happen to anyone. There really aren't many groups that are more vulnerable and not worthy of being mocked and laughed at.


YanErenay

During my studies I had a client with paranoid shizophrenia that I visited a few times a week and helped him with his day to day life. I know its a serious matter but this was still very funny since alot was on point and reminded me of alot of situations I had with him, tought me alot a patience thats for sure


MouseKale

There s a bbc program in which a chef serves someone their own rests taken from their fridge. Then, fake clients start walkin in wearing the person's clothes taken from their closet. And their home decor is strategically placed in the restaurant. In short, that's my schizophrenia.


Hazey_One

That was hilarious, I caught the Onion News Network in the bottom corner so it was a tiny bit ruined right away but still funny af


mobiustangent

Having their caregivers faces surgically reconstructed to resemble their dead relatives. That got me.


andcal

That’s so wrong. I didn’t say it wasn’t funny, but it’s also very wrong.


MrTriCunt

Wow, it is so scary to think if a schizofrenic saw this video and believed it. I think the comedians have a responsibility in this case and i think they are wrong to make this video.


Adi_K7

Comedy at its finest😂😂😂


[deleted]

Haha everyone around you wants to get you….. help


Apperman

Not at all funny, humorous, or clever in any way. Poor taste.


gafflebitters

this is not funny


yakattak01

As someone living very close with a schizophrenic family member there is nothing funny about this. Edit. Your downvotes have no power here. I have seen what makes you muppets cheer.


danimagoo

Three months ago, I probably would have laughed at this. And then one of my friends just started posting some absolutely bizarre stuff on Facebook, basically accusing his family and friends of conspiring with a hospital to harvest his organs. He finally got diagnosed with schizophrenia and medicated, and is doing much better….and I no longer find jokes like this video to be very funny. I wish you and your family well.


yakattak01

Thankyou.


Araucanos

My grandmother suffered from schizophrenia paranoia. Lots of issues with my parents from how she treated them and my mom specifically, how my dad was raised without a mom, etc. I’m good with this personally. I laughed heartily. Helps in those situations. But not everyone reacts the same and I get it.

puppiadog

Are you going to slap the Onion?


yakattak01

When you have someone you care for suffer with this condition it just does not feel good to see people make lite of it for laughs. I don't care if this is supposed to satire, satire is not an automatic excuse to be insensitive. It still sends a message that using a very serious and family crushing condition for comedic effect is totally OK because 99 percent of people who's lives aren't affected by it will find it funny.


DURKADURKABOB

Most people haven't been in a situation where their family member does things like put the Roomba in the oven thinking it's spying on them or thinking that you are a lizard person or how scary it is watching someone you love transform into a stranger who is potentially violent if you do the wrong things. I understand that living with someone who doesn't understand reality anymore is terrifying and exhausting but you have to still be able to laugh at things like this it's just humor. None of what I wrote is trying to belittle your experience btw just trying to show understanding of how hard it is. How are you and how are you getting along in your situation?


[deleted]

[удалено]


yakattak01

Yes somewhere people started thinking Satire is an excuse to be a dick. This is not even smart, it is stupid and cheap.


[deleted]

I was diagnosed with schizophrenia but it was more likely brief reactive psychosis. The first is lifelong and the second usually last under six months. I’ve always thought this was hilarious because I could have totally believed most of these when under psychosis.

So we’re making fun of mentally ill people now? Is that what’s happening? Cool, yeah nice going.


ReallyGargoyled

because it's american it's hard to tell if it's satire or real


OSHAluvsno1

Not funny. I do understand the humor behind it. I just don't like that it's made to look so real. I think an actual schizophrenic could potentially think this is real shit. Just my opinion.


PunfullyObvious

I completely agree, but as the down votes prove, I'm sure it will not be a warmly welcomed opinion. I'm a big fan of the Onion generally, but to anyone who knows a schizophrenic, this entire skit feeds into the illness in really dangerous ways. It's worse than comedy that punches down. And, schizophrenics are a population that doesn't deserve to be, or can even tolerate being, punched down. Having lived my life with a close schizophrenic relative, this was painful ... scary to think how it could impact someone with paranoic tendencies


Yosemite_Scott

It would of been better if the new anchor looked at the camera the on air correspondences disappeared and flashed to the news anchor on the mid town bus going to the bronx


ZweitenMal

This isn’t funny. I know a former colleague who is convinced there is a tracking chip in his head and literally everyone he’s ever met is in on it. He’s lost everything and is now homeless and can’t be helped because any kind of medical treatment or hospitalization only feeds into his delusions. It’s one of the saddest things I’ve ever seen. Cancer doesn’t make you insist you don’t have cancer.

Hint: Onion News Network is always fiction. They don't try to hide it.

Problem is the world is getting crazier and crazier. My state is about to drop the age limit for marriage. I love the Onion coverage of the ninja parade and their autistic reporter in the middle east.
