Damn, that was a very long and hard to read Maddox article. He's losing his charm. Or growing up, or something like that.

Even more likely, you're growing up.

Maddox was funny when I was 12. I'm 22 now.

This article is not intended to be funny.

Your reply is funny though. Very.

"I'm 22 now."

Priceless!

Being younger is hilarious!
I know, right? when I was 3 I didn't understand the hilarity of it all. But now I'm almost 7 and I know it all.
The older folks are going to get a good laugh at you.
That article was kind of serious. He still writes articles in his old school style http://thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=onions
He was here 10 years ago, he was the king then, he's still around in 2012 and he still rocks. Whichever way you want to look at it, 99% of the people dissing the quality of his work and noting how he's lost the magic don't have the talent to judge him anyway.
Yelling and swearing and saying "shitbitch" just isn't funny now that I'm not 13 any more.
