About This Book:

Title: The Onion Ad Nauseam: Fanfare for the Area Man Complete News Archives

Synopsis
The sharply witty free newspaper the Onion gathers a complete rundown of a year's worth of fake headlines ("Unemployed Man Getting Really Good At Unemployment"), tales of gangsta office finance from Herbert Kornfeld in the accounts receivable department at Midstate Office Supply ("Keepin' It Real In Tha Midstate Crib"), and sundry dispatches from the environs inhabited by the life form known as "Area Man" in their annual ONION AD NAUSEAM compendium. In over 700 pages of statistical non-sequiturs, hilarious think pieces, and pure satire, the Onion editors expertly skewer all aspects of American life, from mass-market consumerism to those vitally important media debates that are forgotten almost as soon as they're raised. A much-needed antidote to somber times, FANFARE FOR THE AREA MAN upholds the Onion tradition of satire in the face of adversity, mediocrity, and political dread.
