The Onion, everyone's favourite satirical newspaper, hit the headlines this week when North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un was named the winner of their 'Sexiest Man Alive' award and Chinese news agency China People's Daily took them at face value, publishing a glowing 55 page online spread on the news.
The Onion has quite a history of its cutting satire being taken seriously but this gem from 2008 is probably a little too out there to be taken seriously by anyone.

It is still hilarious though...
