{{website}}
'''''The Duffel Blog''''' is what happen when ''[[The Onion]]'' is written by a bunch of guys trying to take the piss out of the United States Armed Forces, often in the most [[Deadpan Snarker|dry, deadpan manner ever]].

Like ''[[The Onion]]'' it's possible to mistake this site for a real news site, but even a quick scan of some of the articles should raise some red flags of [[parody]], and even reading one of them will quickly reveal they are about as serious as [[Encyclopedia Dramatica]].
