twitter A Parenting Segment Youll Never See on TVThe notion that Facebook and Twitter provide ideal, Webby ways to stalk our kids isn’t exactly a new joke. But the good people at The Onion manage to milk some fresh humor out of it in the video below, which plays almost verbatim like a cheesy segment on the “Today” show.

Well, verbatim, except for all the cursing and the fact that the show’s resident “e-mom” refers to her son’s girlfriend as “trampy” and “a slut.”

If you need a laugh, it’s worth a look. And no, it’s probably NSFW, unless your workplace is laid-back, awesome and totally encouraging of Twitter jokes.
