"I am very happy to be able to make this offer available to our viewers. And if you call now, we'll throw in an acre of ocean-front property in Arizona."
(In explanation to our readers, this parodies late night infomercials. Also, Arizona is a land-locked state.)

On the surface Mark seemed happy, but deep down he knew everybody was laughing at him.

And in other news:
Tree-huggers may mant to think twice about saving their precious greenery.
Yes, the plant looks harmless in this photo. But, in a terrible twist of fate, this man was mutilated right after the picture was taken.
Apparently, the white piece of paper is a signal of declaration of war in the plant's native tongue. The man struggled bravely, screaming like a girl, for around thirty seconds as horrified onlookers... looked on, horrified.
His family stated that he wouldn't have wanted to be viewed as a hero, and that all memorial contrubutions should go to some organization that cuts down trees, or possibly one that burns hippies.
Thank you for joining us, and remember: it's eleven o'clock, do you know where your children are?
