[phxflyguy]

lol... I love when I get a Brut Gift Set for Christmas. Goes right in the garbage.

[GTBurns48215]

@phxflyguy Ahh Brut, the official Cologne of the guys of the Jersey Shore. PROTIP: Brut has an effect on the ladies, it DRIVES THEM AWAY. and gives me the same reaction I had from the CS gas at the CBRN chamber at Ft Jackson.

[Melohalo]

My god I want I want a Doggie Coin Bank that barks when I put as coin in it.

[JustKita]

I have that tea kettle. It's actually made my life much easier. It's a pretty cool product.

[kkmkys]

I don't get anything on Christmas anymore...

[MisterAlexUk]

1:19 is just hilarious. The look on that guy's face when he lifts up that leftover kettle is priceless.

[xXdarKestjesteRxX]

onion news it fake

[MorroccoSurrogate]

An electrical tea kettle sounds convenient to me.

[meric2]

One time I got waterproof socks

[FourthDerivative]

That's.... that's so depressing.

[JoXDDFive]

[the men] XD lololol thats so fucking good XD

[JstnTime995]

Anyone notice this takes place in Akron Ohio? And that dudes name at 0:54 is 'Cavalieri'? Definitly a Lebron James reference...

[Ryuinfinity]

They're making fun of memory foam pillows, but those things are actually great. I can't live without mine!

[NinjaWhack]

Wow, and here I was thinking a box of peanut brittle and a framed picture of me and their mom would be the best...

[mouthlock]

@NinjaWhack: first genuinely funny thing I've read in comments for a long time :)

[Aaron2071]

I'm so glad my aunts don't do this xDDD My aunts give me computer games, clothes, etc. Never socks, though... Ugh, I would hate to get socks for christmas. :P

[PowerfulSplicer]

i funkin love socks

[jsunflyguy]

La-Z-Boy reports recline in stock.

[goliatmo]

wow, I bet some pretty bitter steph-children wrote this..

[geffrod]

I'll never forgot when my aunt gave me Playdough as a present when I was already really into the NES.

In my mind:

''Thanks, uh, for the Playdough. I've got to get back to playing Castlevania III''.

[naetoru99]

One time my mom bought be a game for the wii. I don't even own one.

[jetsam50000]

[RainbowManification]

[Willsturd4321]

[joshmosh79]

[nortenero]

"I wish I could see Becky's face when she opens this on Christmas morning, but I think she's going to be at her real dad's..." Man this guy sounds terrible... I feel sad for him...

[clhouse2]

"trying to attain the affection of children who do not and will not ever love them" thats some funny shit

[hitman287]

@clhouse2 that's why you never marry anyone with kids to many problems

[MissAshleynoelle]

[Mcheetah]

I already have the Ireland Coffee Table Book, the Plastico(tm) Desktop Organizer, the Cafe Style Hot Cocoa Mix, the Enchanted Ivy Rock Garden, the Soleus(tm) Air Remote Control Stand Tower Fan, the Rival(tm) Five Quart Crock Pot, and the Mini Origami Set.

[andrewbnkjv]

Christmas war room...Wonder if Santa sits in there with spiked cocoa

[demonlordeclipse]

i actually got a purple fleece robe from my aunt last year. i never used it i actually have no idea where it is or what happened to it.

[Suhrvivor]

That's Hilarious. Step dads Fighting over a tea kettle.

[michaeldotcom77]

lol at that seems like the perfect gift for my wife's kids

[Zidel333]

Not to be a dick, but a tea kettle IS NOT THE SAME as a tea pot. The first you brew water in, the second you brew tea in. K, my rant's done now. Excellent video as always Onion.

[mats098]

Woo! You tell em!

[sanarkhos]

I loved the bit about the tin cat with teabags in it

[Ultraliskojebca]

I wish I could get one here in Poland.

[racehellish]

LOL best ever.

[modemmack]

How can The Onion create sketches with such high production values. Were do they make their money. Very funny stuff though.

[CJMachinima]

the Onion is also a newspaper

[xmrwaffles2]

independant their allowed to make up stuff I love it.

[Pankakke]

Most news organizations, even satirical ones, receive a large amount of income from advertisements.

[nfwu]

"We can hardly keep them on the shelves"

(Lots of boxes of kettles behind him.)

[danieldeibler]

See, my step dad was smart. He got a seat in front of Target early on black friday. He was like 5th or 6th in line and hardly even had to run to get to the display case before all the kettles were gone. And now, lookie who's livin' it up in his dorm with a nice warm cup of earl gray tea. That's right, ME.

[jazzx251]

haha!

[TyrannoJack]

i swear, the onion, you guys are hilarious.

the cat shaped tea holder made me die. something my mother would love.

[MattieCooper]

ROFL~!!! C-L-A-S-S-I-C!

[waitingastar]

LMAO

Christmas war room

[Fuzzie45x]

roflcopter

[renderstand]

rolling-on-floor-laughing-copt­er? like helicopter?

[jsmallwood2007]

no like a rodney beating

[StopNWO11]

LMAO

[Duffman0]

soi soi soi soi soi soi

[GretchenDawntreader]

LOL this video is for everyone who ever got a meaningless compulsory gift from someone who felt societally boxed into a corner and forced to get you *something* so they found some random shit and wrapped it up.

In other words, this video is for damned near everyone.

[brandonbb13]

LOL at the end

"My wife's kids"

LOLOL

[1MinuteFlipDoc]

Onion news...too funny!

[janet444]

this would be perfect for my friands on the moon rofl rofl rofl dik

[AustinF12]

lmao i saw this on attack of the show

[thecheesypig]

attack of the show it way cool

[MentalMania]

Blah everyones got these in the UK.

How else do you boil water fast with out having to put the cooker on?

[furnutx]

Erm that's not really the point is it?

[thecheesypig]

well its not hard to turn it on...

[MentalMania]

Yeeah but it's wel slow nest to the kettle

[NestorV]

I have to say, I hope I get the kettle from my aunt or the Plastico Desktop organizer. They look cool.

[flashtirade]

This would be perfect for my several cousins overseas whose names/faces I can't remember.

[Zant5976]

oh lol.

[RationalEmotive]

I queued for the iPhone, PS3, WoW Wrath of the Lich King, most of the Harry Potter volumes, all of the Lord of the Rings pre-premiers and all these weeks away from work waiting for some shitty gadget were well-spent!

[cageguard]

perfect gift for my nephew in college, which i think he is, lol

a tea kettle, i like tea but unless ur a goth kid i doubt you want flavorless herbal teas.

[theraVen27]

btw La-Z-Boy has moved it's operations to mexico.

Don't buy La-Z-Boy.

[janteigen]

"That sounds like the perfect gift for my wifes kids..."

[TheSofox]

I really wish they'd release the full image for the "Top 10 gifts for young people you barely know."

[ArielMimoh]

This makes me laugh so hard. I'm Scottish and we live on electric kettles for all our British tea needs, and my American flatmate claimed she had never seen an electric kettle before she came to stay with us last year. (Apparently she boiled her kettle on a stove) Americans have advanced technology? I think NOT!!!!! :)

[Ealgian]

lol! I'd never heard of an electric tea kettle either

[nonew3]

I'm an American, and I've been using an electric tea kettle for years! I'm surprised that so many Americans have never heard of them. I use it to boil water for my tea, my instant coffee, and my instant oatmeal. I can't imagine life without my it.

[texxs01]

That's a "high Quality" vid? Dude, that sux . . .

[musicpaxx]

Well it's not HD so we can't complain....

[UserNameForYeeTube]

"Texas Instruments releases calculator capable of spelling 8 new dirty words" \o/

[SymAmineC8H11N]

fuck you!

[Infinitesimalism]

Senate Majority Harry Reid: "I have to masturbate like 3 times before I can get any decent legislating done." XD

Funny thing is I need to masturbate only once before I can even begin to care about legislation.

[kipolem53]

Funny thing is I need to masturbate a thousand times before anything in goverment interests me.

[maurora27]

The best thing about watching TheOnion videos is reading the comments left by idiots who think it's real.

[didles123]

Most of you don't see the underlying joke satire here. It's mocking stepdads since their adopted children won't ever love them.

[sinnersavedbygrace7]

I love how Mike quietly comments, "that looks like a great gift for my wife's kids"

[erigirl08]

dito...... i love how they stay so straight faced as if they really mean it. i love the onion!!!!!

[purepinoii]

ahahah funny shit

[mitenzouki]

But,but, but I'm not over 50 and I would love one of these.

[GeatMaster]

ya, I'm 17 and i'd love one of those.

[graffnameseed]

ya that cat with the assorted tea bags look great wooo....

[mitenzouki]

:D at least it isn't the USB toaster

[graffnameseed]

or that lame singing bass thing

[mitenzouki]

On and odd side note, I bought one of those for my stepdad this year.

[graffnameseed]

yuppp i love teabags!

[Deathgroin]

KitTin lol

[VINCEBONO]

I wonder what their budget is

[zionofwestern]

Poor estranged step-dads.

[sushimax]

HA, I got a ceramic shaped cat filled with tea bags one year when I was like 13, viva la festivus!

[DarkHourFilms]

wow sum people are so pathadic at the christmas season , like serious its a freaking kettle why fight over it, theres like 100s of different types of them out there and just cuase you don't get them the PERFECT one doesn't mean there goin to hate you and if they do well their just fucking stupid!!

[BoxcuttaMK2]

lol dude you know this is a joke new show right?

[jediKnightreviews]

HI, were from planet earth, can you join us? J/K i think you missed the overall joke. just watch it a couple times and you will get it.

[Sykosis310]

you do realize this is a fake news show, right?

[cmurph17f]

yeah they're so pathadic

[artc27]

this is a joke new fyi

[DarkHourFilms]

I know its a joke im just saying there are people who fight for stupid shit like this though

[zaga0408]

WHO THE FUCK WOULD WANT THAT?!

P.S. The police report was classic.

[lPernaLongAl]

:O

-

[omgWTFn00b]

LOL That's so true... I have an aunt that desperately tries to get in touch with me and connect but it just doesn't work. I like her and all, but it's just really awkward cause I see her like maybe 3 times a year.

dark
