Great news and welcome back

Seems like a poor man's version of The Onion.

did you go to Texas? Texas Travesty is awesome.

Sara returning means nothing to me, since I don't live in state and can't swing by the south mall to check out the sun bathage.

BTW, yes, I do believe this is satire...

I write for the Travesty and I appreciate the compliment by calling it a poor man's Onion. I roam the boards from time to time, and thought this was timely enough to post.

The Travesty began in 1997 so that's probably why you've never heard of it. We have a new issue coming out Tuesday and we started a sports section just this year. Our most popular sports thing so far was this Greg Davis playbook


It is written by college students as opposed to professional comedians, so it's hit or miss, but for the most part it can be read with minimal harm to your cornea region.

Here's a link to our sports stuff if you feel so inclined:

(And yes, it's satire, emphasis on tire)

nosoupforyou, I appreciate the background. I'll try to check out the Travesty more often.

The Travesty has always been a fun read.

I recall having posted the "Colt and Shipley Pillow talk" a la the Texas Travesty here once. The thread was closed immediately as if it was an attack at the two.

It really was a very funny read.
