This app takes a list of headlines from The Onion, builds a Markov Chain, and generates new article titles. Example:

"McDonald’s Now Offering Sainthood To Anyone In Character Costume"

This comes from the following real articles:

  • "McDonald’s Now Offering Bereavement Prices"
  • "Desperate Catholic Church Now Offering Sainthood To Anyone Who Regularly Attends Weekly Mass"
  • "Report: Most Parents Willing To Entrust Children To Anyone In Character Costume"

Greatest hits:
