Biden To Honor Fallen Soldiers By Jumping Motorcycle Over Vietnam Memorial

quote:

"There's no better way to pay homage to our fallen brothers than by letting it rip, hitting that ramp at full loving blast, and flying through the sky high above the Vietnam Memorial," said Biden, noting that he also plans to execute a midair salute by placing his fingers around his mouth in a V shape and rapidly flicking his tongue.

Seriously, it's somehow become a mundane fact that man has walked on the goddamn moon. The moon!

This is not only my favorite Onion thing ever, it's exactly the way I feel people should basically react every time they look up and notice the moon in the sky. To just sit down and have to catch their breath as they try to come to terms with HOLY gently caress WE PUT MEN ON THE loving MOON!
