Yes, they're selling hilarity. It's The Onion, after all.
Yes, but it's funny because it's true. Even OpenBSD developers are
motivated by self interest...Ever wonder why the answers on misc@ are

Self interest is probably THE most basic instinct of any creature
anywhere
- it's how the species survives.
Kids learn, as they grow, to temper it and become more 'human', but it
remains the root of survival of the species.
