The Onion was such a much needed resource in those horrible days immediately following the tragedy. It helped a lot to keep me sane, at least.
One of the best I remember is a cover pic of celebrities with the caption “Nation yearns to care about useless shit again” or something to that effect. It was so great…I don’t see it in the links above, but it is the one I still remember to this day.
Great post, OP. Thanks!
Edit: here it is!
