I don't know why but I cringed at the mistake here but our acronym is "CU" but we are not Colorado University. We are the University of Colorado at Boulder.
Yep good old Republic of Boulder. Home of Hippies, internet start-ups, the Onion, and of course the masses of WoW playing college students.
Although it sounds like to me the guy went "Oh crap, my thesis is due tomorrow and I have a raid in 10 minutes...wait a minute now there's an idea!" (And plus it's in the Colorado Daily, I mean, who reads that anyway?)

Actually, the home of the Onion is UW, as in the University of Wisconsin - Madison. It was started there in 1988, and it's still its home.
I don't think the Onion has any affiliation at all with CU, but more power to the students of CU who read the Onion.

My mistake, didn't mean to imply the onion was founded in boulder, but the fact that there is an official "the onion" office less than a block from campus, and that the paper is always readily available around campus. That and "the onion" tends to have more "real news" than the Colorado Daily did, at least when I went there that paper was a joke.
