For anyone who enjoys the Onion, and I absolutely do, they might enjoy the following. I wrote and submitted this to the Onion a few months back - I'm pretty sure I'll never hear back from them since they have written, in very prominent type, and in a very prominent place on their contact information page, that they do not accept editorial submissions. Surely they didn't mean me.
God Cancels Reality In Favor Of Reality TV
Nov 15, 2006
Vatican City, Italy - According to a Vatican representative, speaking on behalf of the Almighty, reality will be canceled at the end of this season and will be replaced by reality TV. God, the release stated, has found that the multitude of reality TV shows being aired more than satisfied his experiment in creating mankind and then watching the ensuing trials and tribulations. “The shows created by the four major networks,” stated God, “in fact go well beyond even the most difficult vicissitudes that I could have dreamed up. Bravo Fox, NBC, CBS and ABC,” he concluded. The release further stated that the fate of mankind at the end of this season will be instant non-being, with the exception of a small percentage kept on to staff the various reality TV shows themselves. There was no word as to which network’s season end date God will adhere to.
