John Dryden once wrote that good satire is not offensive since the wise enjoy it and the fool doesn’t recognize it. That it’s one thing to butcher and another to cut so keenly you decapitate while leaving the head in place. “The Onion” has been delivering wonderful parodies of mainstream journalism since 1988. Their work is a careful balance of realism, wit, irreverence, and humor. To complete this challenge, write an Onion-esque satirical news article or advertisement. 75 coins “cash” prize!

Satire Of A Wimpy Kid!

When I saw him, I knew I had to write a satire about him. Let me explain. Me and my siblings like to make satires! I mean we really like too.  

      I pulled my notebook out of my backpack and started to draw. 

      The hair I drew big and curly. When in reality, it was a flat comb-over. (The best for satirizing!) 

      The nose I drew big and pointy, (The best type!) when it seemed that theirs nose was one of a wii characters! 

       The feet are the best part of the WHOLE satire! People don't have big feet in real life, but trust me, they sure do in my satires! I made them so big a clown would be jealous!

       Now for the belly. When I satire people I add the biggest belly you can think of! So big that their shirt barely covers it! 

        Now for the universal MOLE ON THE CHEEK! It adds a great touch to the finishing look. You can never go wrong with adding a mole!

        And don't forget to make them sad!
