You haven't heard these stories before; the only time I can recall the Onion making their backroom process transparent is the funniest segment of the comedy documentary The Aristocrats.

If you haven't seen it, this C-Span program is worth watching:

I haven't seen it for 10 years (when I briefly lived in a garage in Ocean Shores, the only time I've ever had cable) but I remember it being great.
