The McSweeney's article is also linked to in the Sports Guy's intern's daily links.

are they supposed to have a team of crack plagiarism investigators to analyze every article that's submitted to them? i blame the author, not mcsweeneys.

Didn't the 5 year olds thing become something of an internet phenomenon and crop up in a bunch of different places? If so, couldn't one view this article as one man's answer to a now somewhat famous question rather than an attempt to rip off the concept?
