Not the Times

parody of the Los Angeles Times Web site had me laughing this morning, especially this story about the "creepy" Burger King mascot, complete with mugshot:

bkingmugshot.jpgFor months, he'd been sneaking into customers' homes at dawn, disrupting their slumber with offers of cholesterol-rich breakfast items.

"People were definitely creeped out," an LAPD spokesman said. "But there wasn't much we could do besides tell them to get a restraining order."

Then, three months ago, the frozen-faced mascot apparently snapped, leaving a trail of bodies, blood and curly fries. Police were baffled at first - crime scene tests indicated the killer's DNA consisted solely of polystyrene resins and Thousand Island dressing. h/t Fishbowl LA
