Pvt. Tom Scharpling, U.S. Army, 3rd Infantry

This is old, so maybe everyone knows about it already, but I just saw that The Onion borrowed our favorite host's name for an article on the military:

Hey, I thought it was funny.

Definitely not an accident - Tom was a contributing writer for The Onion.

I knew that.  I just thought it was funny that they gave him a shout-out like that.

The Onion also did a feature on a guy named Roger Dittman, who looks eerily similar to our Mr. Scharpling.

Ha!  Do you have a link to the article to which that photo corresponds?

I didn't know he wrote for the Onion.  Is here anything he can't do?  I suggest that no, there is not.

He's totally making the "area man" face, too.
