Today sees the release of The Onion Movie on DVD, and YBNBY has five copies to giveaway to US-based readers.
I was going to write a paragraph here about how much I love The Onion, and how much it inspired me to start this site, but all of that seems a little obvious, no? If you live under a rock, and have no idea what I'm talking about, just take it as read that if you like YBNBY, you'll probably love this movie. And now you can enter to win a free copy. (Man, I love giving shit away)
There are two easy steps to entering for a chance to win a DVD:
1. Register for our site, if you haven't already done so. This enables you to comment on any story without moderation (and saves us a LOT of work). We have to approve all registrations, but I'll make sure I'm on top of doing that today.
2. Once you've registered, sign in and leave a comment on this post.
And that's it. At the end of the week, I'll randomly pick five registered members, and drop them an email to get their mailing addresses, and the DVD's will be in the mail.
In the meantime, check out this clip of featured pop sensation, Melissa Cherry, who definitely seems like our kind of girl. Whoever could accuse such a sweetheart of being overtly sexual? Her new album "Come with Me" hits shops soon. I know I'll be encouraging my daughter to buy it.

This is awesome. I love the smell of The Onion in the morning. ;) What a wonderful prize to display proudly in one's home DVD collection.
The Onion is great, and I'm sure the DVD will be brilliant. However, not paying money for it might be even more brilliant...
I'm leaving a comment.
Thanks for the contest... love the print Onion (and the website), but I have no idea what to expect from the movie!

I've heard it has many layers, and will make you cry.
I remember my friends talking about the Onion when it was a simple publication distributed on paper at the University of Wisconsin, Madison. It's been fun to see it grow and evolve since they took the net by storm.
I've been wanting to see this movie and was so excited to see that you are giving away copies I had to comment. I have my match lit and am hoping you pick me.
comment comment comment =)
Pick Me!
Yes, I believe I would like to win one of these....
remember, there are 3 types of people in the world.. those who count and those who can't.

I tried to create an account and it turns out I have an account already. Bizarre. Sorry for posting anon all this time and causing more workload.
Man, I love it when you give free shit away!
I like my chances.
yeeeeeeeeeee-HAWWWWW
Hey that even made me create an account.
Have a hell of a day!
pretty please...
Oooh... exciting!
too tired to be witty, just leaving a comment for now.
One of my favorite Onion memories...when the foreign press picked up the story from the Onion about how Congress wanted a retractable roof just like the football stadiums had...(yes, it might have been urban legend that they believed it)--further "proof" how selfish Americans are...
My most recent favorite story was about Tyler Hansbrough hanging in for another year to take the coolest Philosophy class ever at UNC...
loved the print edition, love the web site more--no waiting a week for new stories and no icky newsprint on my fingers!
just registered to enter this contest... I'm excited for an Onion movie, too. It seemed like they were running dry on ideas, but I've always found something to laugh about.
I'm gonna ask you a simple question and I want you to listen to me:
Who's the big winner here tonight at the casino? Huh? Mikey, that's who.
Mikey's the big winner. Mikey wins.
Random, I like random!
OK, I am officially upgraded from lurker to registered. I love free stuff. Someday I will repay the world for all the free stuff I have accumulated. But today, I would love a copy of the Onion movie.
Random is my favorite number!
I love The Onions latest video about the Blockbuster Video museum...simply hilarious! p.s. May I have/win one of the dvds? :)
YAY!
Local man wins DVD in contest.
As much as I would like to win, I have questions about the process.
Will my screen name and other's be put in a black bag and taken for a ride in a van without windows?
Will the said bag be questioned mercilessly for hours with out food or water?
Will it be subject to "water boarding?"
Will it eventually be dumped by some large civil project where the homeless person sleeping near by will pick it up, give it a jacket because it’s cold and then teach it to live on the street?
Will this black bag of names eventually remember its true purpose in life and return to its creator for a final showdown?
Will there be kungfoo ninja fighting with orangutans and dwarves?
Will I ever cease my rambling tangent and thus quit reveling my inner boredom and angst at the trivial pursuit of doldrums which has consumed my life (at least since I woke this morning) causing me to post run on sentences on a blog for millions all over the world to see?
Will there be an exciting twist ending like in M. Nights "The Penis"?
Must have onion
I'll never be able to look at my wifes CareBear the same!
Please pick me. I love my onion with caramel sauce on top.
I hate you and everything you stand for. Please give me a DVD. Thank you.
I wish to win this prize. Please pick me.
Regards,
Hillary for Pres...oops, too late. May I still win the DVD?
Onions make me cry.
I can bawl on forever if I'm chopping onions.
But I really want to cry tears of some good ass laughs watching the Onion Movie. I hear the hypocrisies of the world can do that to you.
On yeah when I was little, like 5- I was proposed with an onion ring from some kid I hardly knew. We just met and played for 1 afternoon. The onion ring lasted just as long as the relationship. I gobbled it and enjoyed every last morsel. Ymmmmm.
i wanna win, its teh greatest movie of all time, but i cant find it anywhere
