    True story:

    I was reading the Onion on the subway once, and was reading an article with the headline '13 year olds' plan for entire afternoon is to smoke cigarettes." It had a picture of these young kids sitting inside a concrete tube at a playground.

    Anyhow, an old lady was sitting next to me, and I started to notice this look on her face, sneaking a read of the article and basically just looking really confused/dismayed/horrified. She 100% thought it was a real newspaper.
