very disappointing.  Usually the onion is humorous, but all these jokes are either stale or esoteric.

worst of all, it's just one great big advertisement for the 7-11 Big Gulp.  And it doesn't even work well.  I clicked on the purple cup, then on "see my city's results" and it put me on top of San Angelo, Texas.  I live in 17601, nowhere near San Angelo.  Must be some glitch in the software.  Not what you want when spamming people with Big Gulp ads.
