Any difference between the printed or the online versions of "The Onion"?

Mr brother loves reading "The Onion" online, and we're thinking of getting him a subscription to the printed version for the holidays. However, is there any difference in the two versions, or would a printed version be redundant if he already reads it for free online?

Pretty similar sadly. It also comes like 3rd class so you get it a few weeks later.

It's only about 4 pages Onion and the rest from whatever city you get it out of. My sub was out of Madison.

I was such a follower I didnt mind getting the paper version too.

You might get him 'our dumb century' instead. Its fake front pages of the onion from 1900-2000. It's jawdroppingly briliant.

Or you could get a boxed set of the other compendiums. I found one for my cousin and one for my friend a few years ago for $18 new.

Onion also has some funny merchandise now too.

And the Jon Stewart America book is a few years old, but has the same sense of humor, as well as many similar writers.

You might look at McSweeneys too. It's a lot, lot, lot more literary and high-brow, but they do up the quarterlies in many different cool ways and the topics are always very unusual. It's like NPR but arty and much cooler.
