Housing Bubble Realtor

Immune-Deficient Realtor Forced To Spend Entire Life In Housing Bubble



If you're not reading the Onion, you're missing out on some of the best, spot-on, satire around.

I remember the first time that I picked up a copy during my freshman year at UW. I had never heard about it and thought it was a real school newspaper. After a few minutes of confusion, I finally got the joke.

Created in 1988 in Madison, WI as a way to sell pizza coupons; The Onion is a free, weekly tabloid-style newspaper filled with hilaious spoof articles. The first half is fictional & the second half is a great entertainment section called the A/V Club.

My friend Nate's (whose blog I featured in this post) younger brother Peter Koechley is a writer and has a blog listing his contributions to each issue.

If you're new to the Onion & like what you see, here's a couple recommendations from Amazon to check out. They make for both great gifts, and great bathroom reading.

One more note. If you buy through these Amazon affiliate links, I'll donate all proceeds to KW Cares.

Hey Dustin, thanks for the reminder.
