More than a few people have left comments on our Twitter posts related to the Iranian situation wondering if they weren't really articles by the satirical site, The Onion . Here are two that come to mind, Twitter Reschedules Maintenance To Allow Iranian Protests To Continue and Bush Advisor: Twitter Founders Should Get Nobel Peace Prize . Well, The Onion finally has one of its own . And as you might expect, it's good. The post is short, sweet and to the point. But the best parts are the fake quotes by Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey : "Twitter was intended to be a way for vacant, self-absorbed egotists to share their most banal and idiotic thoughts with anyone pathetic enough to read them," said a visibly confused Dorsey.
