The satirical news outlet The Onion is anything but conventional, so it shouldn’t be too surprising to see that the staff of the humorous publication is looking to make friends with people living in the residential high-rise next door to their office. More specifically, The Onion staff really want access to their neighbors’ pool deck so they can test their poop emoji floaty in it.
Do you know somebody who lives at 757 N. Orleans in Chicago? We need a place to test our poop emoji float! https://t.co/LUPs7d1ZIF

It’s apparently not a prank either. The Onion is serious about this, and have even published an ad in the Craigslist classifieds.
It looks like it didn’t take long to find some friends next door. According to Laura Browning, the managing editor at the A.V. Club, it looks like two residents have responded to their plea.
