While a little more racist then I'm used to the Onion being, it's an interesting bit of satire/glimpse of the future.

Glad to find another disciple of the Onion. It never fails to put a smile on my face.

For the uninitiated, the Onion is a spoof.

The first thing I thought of when I saw the first photo: those pilings are SMALL....then noticed they were HOLLOW. My building is only 5 stories high and our pilings are twice as thick and solid......
