We have mixed feelings about the Onion News Network, but this video might tip the scales in satire's favor. A friend put it best: "cringeworthy." Our favorite line — "There are so few Home Depots in Iraq I can only imagine how horrible it must be to live there." Just press play. Then dial up Home Depot and ask if they need a good lawyer to sue some layers off the Onion.

Home Depot Honors Fallen Soldier By Giving His Mom Free Power Drill

Ever since Maxim founder Felix Dennis claimed in a Times of London interview that he once killed a man, he's had to face up to the news that he might be facing a criminal investigation.

According to Ginny Dougary, who interviewed him for the Times:

"What sane person - a magazine publisher, no less, even if he were on medication, would tell a journalist (of all people) on the record, even after drinking a number of bottles of excellent wine, that he has killed a man? Dennis is such good company and a wonderful host that it feels bad- mannered to repeat his astonishing claim, but if this was a strange flight of fantasy - and in vino it's not always a case of veritas - to pretend that you have killed someone, is a very questionable form of either humour or braggadocio."

We don't know whether Dennis' odd claim is true... but we can offer up something else: Felix Dennis reading the poem "Never Go Back."

It seems like sound advice for him right now.

New York Post writer Mandy Stadtmiller is a longtime favorite of ours. That's why we're happy to see that the paper has recruited her to do original video content.

In the clip above, Stadtmiller travels to an S&M club to, as the NYP puts it:

"Talk to fetish lovers who they say are misunderstood."

A little sensationalist? Yeah, probably. But still amusing. A New York Post reporter on a "pleasure swing" alongside goofy looking goths? God bless.

And plays some Green Day...

We mentioned last week that Gawker Media was moving to a new office. So cheers to the intrepid reader who just sent us this YouTube photomontage of scenes from the old Gawker office set to Green Day.

Now back to our usual programming.

So film critic Leonard Maltin has been hosting his own show, Secret's Out, on cable network ReelzChannel for a while now. When the network finally inked a deal with Time Warner Cable to appear in the New York market, they decided the smartest thing to do would be a publicity stunt:

Release a list of Leonard Maltin's 15 Greatest New York Scenes in Movie History.

And like the craven bastards we are, we went along with it. The 15 greatest scenes (with video) after the jump.
