McSweeney's Internet Tendency: North Korea's Most Controversial Standup Comic Performs at The People's Shack of Laffs.

Another classic McSweeny’s post:

Oh, you guys are gonna love this. I read something about Dear Leader in the paper today. Really, you can look it up, this was actually in the paper today: “Dear Leader to Live for 200 Years.” Can you believe this? I didn’t make this up, this was actually printed! 200 years!? Everyone knows that Kim Jong Il is immortal and if he leaves the Earth he will do so on the gilded wings of a majestic dragon!

The Brocycolopedia - McSweeney's

More gold from McSweeney’s.  My personal favorite:

A Broseph Stalin is a broseph who so embodies the characteristics of a broseph that he is considered an ideal form of broseph. It is believed that a Broseph Stalin is so rare that only two men in history have ever been accurately referred to as such: the 20th century dictator Joseph Stalin, from whom the term received its namesake, and Charles Guiteau, the man who assassinated President James A. Garfield. However, there has been recent buzz in the brommunity that actor Wesley Snipes is perhaps a Broseph Stalin. Critics are quick to point out, however, that the nomination of Snipes is merely a token attempt to tear down the long-standing color barrier for Broseph Stalins.
