I want to fly a helicopter, not look at a bunch of crazy dials!

I don't think I want to be around this guy when he's flying.

A DEPRESSION is when YOU are out of work.
A RECOVERY is when all the H-1B's are out of work."

them to put Americans out of work, visit the following

Can someone please explain the purpose of the onion to me? Is it
strictly humor, or just to see the "other perspective" of some things? I
don't get it. Does that guy really fly, or is he just an underpaid
reporter that had to turn in something funny by Friday, and thought of
"something funny" when he saw the local news helicopter on his way to
work? Is it even a real person, or is the onion comprised of whatever
funny thing may come along? Again, I just don't get it.

The Onion is satire

If the rest of the headlines on "The Onion" don't give you a clue then
you're probably too clueless to operate a helo to begin with.
