What is Digg?93 Comments
- Sornos, on 09/08/2008, -4/+69What makes the Onion so amazing is that it's always believable. There's always a moment of doubt when you're not sure whether it's a parody or not. Good stuff.
- alapoet, on 09/07/2008, -8/+59OK, I don't care who you are. That right there is FUNNY.
- Mpwns, on 09/08/2008, -2/+36it may be from the onion but there is some truth to this.
- parent, on 09/08/2008, -3/+35holy crap, i just read the whole thing before i closed out to comment, and noticed it was from the onion, .....its 1am, goodnight
- happytedium, on 09/08/2008, -0/+19What's sad is sometimes there are headlines on digg where I'm sure it must be an Onion article, and it turns out to be real. *sigh*
- nullx42, on 09/08/2008, -0/+17The only point when I have that feeling is when it'ts on digg, I read the title and I'm like "lol wut?"
Then when i see the little onion logo on the tab, I know its not serious. - roosh, on 09/08/2008, -0/+14Ripped straight from the Freakanomics chapter "Why Do Drug Dealers Still Live With Their Moms?"
- tinybubs, on 09/08/2008, -2/+14There goes my next career move. I guess I'll have to get another "real job".
- seanof, on 09/08/2008, -1/+12The funny thing is it's probably more accurate then the stereotypes.
- XxpokemasterxX, on 09/08/2008, -6/+14at first i thought this was real
- TitanX7, on 09/08/2008, -2/+10Dear God this freaked me out. I didn't check the damn source and was completed appalled as to the stupidity of the reporter who posted this article before the man's case was done (as the article implies). I spent 15 minutes attempting to find one of cop's contacts with concern for his life; finally, I checked the article again and discovered that it was from the Onion. Too damn ***** convincing, tone it down a little would you!
- bakagaigin, on 09/08/2008, -1/+9me too, I had no idea...
- charm803, on 09/08/2008, -1/+8I read the title and thought "yeah, I bet."
Damn you, Onion! - FiP0, on 09/08/2008, -0/+7The Onion ?
Judging by the title, I thought we were discussing Steven Levitt's work on crack economics ... :)
(If you don't know what I'm talking about : http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/steven_levitt_a ... ) - TorstenSK, on 09/08/2008, -0/+6I know it unnecessary, but I gotta throw it in as well -
I did the same thing and it's almost 3AM and I feel retarded
I can only hope the work I recently finished isn't ***** - socokoolaid, on 09/08/2008, -1/+6Pimping ain't easy!
- Endemoniada, on 09/08/2008, -2/+7I'm confused... Since when does The Onion write factual, actual news articles?
- FriniK, on 09/08/2008, -0/+5hes doin it all wrong ...
he should be the one making the stuff..then he can go sit in his hot tub with his pimp hos - xNarrowSoulx, on 09/08/2008, -0/+5Yet another case of The Onion where I have faith in the media again until I notice the border at the top of the page...
- troche17, on 09/08/2008, -0/+5As did I....
- Princeamor, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4*****! I read the whole thing before realizing it was fake too lol 3am
- DonCreech, on 09/08/2008, -0/+4Knowing the weight of a gram by feel is crucial.

Moment of doubt brought to you by The Onion. And it's even dated 2001. - Gabberwok, on 09/08/2008, -4/+7It's hard out here for a pimp.
- synystar, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3I love it when I see headlines that I'm sure are Onion but the link takes me to an AP article, or CNN, et al. Life truly is stranger than fiction sometimes. They've done a great job for many years. I've convinced more than a few friends that something absolutely unbelievable was surely true thanks to the Onion. I can be an *****.
- jftitan, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3wow... I didn't read the article at all, I just fell asleep at the keyboard because its 3am here... good morning!
- 0tis, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3^^Arrest this man. He knows too much.
- Zippo, on 09/08/2008, -0/+3God dammit, Onion, you actually had me with this one!
- BR5490U812, on 09/08/2008, -1/+3dugg for the onion telling it how it is.
- infiniphunk, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2oh this happens in real life too. That's why its funny.
- asskicker32, on 09/08/2008, -4/+6welcome to my world...
- ganymede2010, on 09/08/2008, -1/+3"It's hard out there for a pimp! When your trying to make the money for rent!"
- BlaqReaper, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2Sir, you're doing it wrong. Let me help...
Interview of the undercover cop!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU. - logload, on 09/08/2008, -2/+4aww.. it's from the onion... that's no fun.
oh well. funny - buttermouth, on 09/08/2008, -1/+3You might be a redneck if...you start quoting Larry the cable guy.
- Iztikeit, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Cocaine dealers use very precise digital scales.
- lukis100, on 09/08/2008, -2/+4lame
- smohan123, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2@Zippo, yeah me too. :(
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2Wow I thought it was real until I read the comments about it being from Onion. I was going to say "isn't it ironic that he is undercover yet it's on the internet."
- sayssimon, on 09/08/2008, -0/+2damn i didn't realize it was from the onion until now. biaathc
- Halsfield, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1re-weighing stuff can start beef
- Jeelzebub, on 09/09/2008, -0/+1I have to say, that is the best quote I've read in like...ever.
- Mpwns, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1since people started waking up and noticed the onion was already on tv.
- inactive, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1http://www.minipocketscale.com/
- trafficlight, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1Don't say that ever again. Larry the cable guy is NOT funny and will never be funny.
I had a friend who said this a lot. They got throatpunched. - bryanwebster, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1lol same here!
- buttermouth, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1period fail
- apoupada, on 09/09/2008, -0/+1I thought I was reading a real article, but couldn't understand why they would put the guy's real name and picture in it, then I saw the URL, I feel like such a douche.
- BerryZilla, on 09/08/2008, -1/+2A check? You can't even afford your damn house.
- danthemanhan, on 09/08/2008, -0/+1this reminds me of the morning show on my favorite station here in Vancouver. One of the host's went out to east Hastings to see if a man in a beaver suit could buy heroin (on-air) . you're god-damn right he can...and can also get arrested for it.
