Terrible news: Bat Boy to die!

| | Comments (1)

Word just arrived that the Weekly World News, the best supermarket tabloid in the history of mankind, will cease publication in August.

Where else are you going to get news like this? What other publication followed the exploits of Bat Boy? Or the space alien who endorsed George W. Bush? Or the story about a kid built from spare parts? Or Zambonis being used to save the polar ice caps?

The Weekly World News makes waiting in line at the Giant tolerable. It has great advice columns, where the advisors give only bad advice, and, of course, the stylized ravings of Ed Anger, who was sort of like your pissed-off, boozed-up uncle.

The world will be a sadder place without the Weekly World News.

I see a resemblance between Argento and Bigfoot. Is there any relation there?
