Lark News is best described as the Christian Onion. Some stuff is funnier if you have spent much time in a church; but other stuff would be pretty funny to anyone who has spent any time in a club or organization or committee at work.

IMO, the funniest stuff lives on that line.
I agree that it could be true - except, of course, in my worship band where the bassist is a humble guy with much to be humble about.

Then, during [the song] 'False Idol,' a gold cow rose from the stage and [lead singer and songwriter] Jack [Rhineman] beat the **** out of it with his guitar.

"Actually, Jack writes a lot of songs about chicks," Rolen continued. "'Your Love,' 'When You Return,' 'I Confess'... I don't know if they're all about the same girl or lots of different ones, but one thing's for sure: Jack loves the p*ssy."
The Onion is great.
