flewellynI think this is the funniest Onion News Network video ever. In fact, I think it's the funniest thing the Onion has ever done.
Unusual for a YouTube video, the comment thread is great. There were a number of literate people there making literary jokes. I saved a few highlights:

My flight was once redirected to Kafka due to a paperwork error. The x-ray screening machine carved my alleged crime on my back, and there was a giant cockroach going through my luggage. It was worse than George Orwell in Oceania, which at least gets things moving quickly.

I don't know, last time I travelled with Orwell Int. they said I was to get 3 coffee rations during my flight, but when I got on board, they insisted that my coffee ration had been RAISED to TWO. When I tried to explain the misunderstanding, they tied me to a table and electrocuted me until I agreed that the basic truths of mathematics did not exist.
Though, that was still slightly better than the Burroughs Airline, where I was impregnated by the manager who was a mutant crab monster.

I was at the Kierkegaard Hospital once and heard the doctors in the hall way discussing whether it would be acceptable to sacrifice their favorite patient to God even though doing so is unethical according to the social norm. I became so afraid I just jumped out of the window from the eighth floor but somehow landed safely on the ground.

Say what you want about it, it's still a hell of a lot better than Lovecraft Metropolitan.
My family hasn't stopped screaming since I picked them up from there.

Yeah - I asked if they served fish in the food court and got dozens of flat, cold stares.

The Doestoevsky hotel is at least better then the Satre Hotel in France. I swear, staying in the rooms there is like staying in Hell.

you can't blame the hotel for having bad roommates.
