| That district is in Northern Virgina and is part of the DC sprawl. There are a lot us in the rest of Virginia who don't consider that part of the state anymore, but part of DC. These are the same people that tried to get a statewide tax increase for more roads for them so they wouldn't have to face a local tax increase or toll roads. This nut suits them perfectly. |

| The majority of TheOnion's satires are about petty little things people argue over. This one is about the people who just act like a little word someone made up, needs to be evaluated very thoroughly and get all knitty gritty about some stupid word they shouldn't even care about. It is also a satire of people who laugh at others accidently making up words and then getting all upset over it. |
