The Truth Is Indeed Stranger Than Fiction
I can see it now. A new headline at The Onion. Something like, "Chinese Man Takes Onion Seriously". Pretty funny, eh? I can hear a few of you laughing already. The article would go on, in typical satirical style, to talk about about how a man in China mistakenly took an Onion article for real and reported about it on their evening news. Doubled over yet? Sides hurting from laughter? Here's the kicker. It actually happened. Amazing, isn't it? Some of this stuff just writes itself.
