What magazines do you buy? I buy i-D and The Face (which
has been shit for almost a year). I'm thinking of
subscribing to Vice. Does anyone here make fanzines?

its a cool counter culture type magazine that deals with
corporate image and boycotting and things.

very informative.

it's like those anti-smoking truth commercials, but for the
whole business world.

that was a bad way to describe it.

I don't subscribe to any magazines, but when I'm at an
airport/train station with nothing to read I tend to get
either Sound on Sound (Music Tech mag) or Jockey Slut
(Electronic and Hip Hop music magazine).

I tend to the offical Nintendo Gamecube and Playstation 2
magazines. And from time to time the ice hockey magazine
'Face Off'

i used to be a lot better when i was living in the DC area;
i could go to independently owned stores and support off
brands. but going to school in smalltown, USA i have no
choice but to shop at walmart. the best thing i can do is
only buy what i need and to spread messages through
conversation and writing. i eat at taco bell and subway once
in a while but i won't eat at mcdonald's. i know it's not a
huge difference since they're all monopolies (taco bell is
even owned by pepsi food), but subway is at least healthy
depending on what you get. i know a lot of people who are
better at living their ideals than i am but they almost all
live in cities or go to colleges that provide easy
alternatives to the norm.

hard to figure out...

nah, It's really funny when there's article on how to
impress girls and stuff, most of them don't make much sence
8op

They have some really funny stories and good articles in
them, plus I have a habit of looking at the laydeez and
thinking "Those are really nice pants"

FHM, Stuff, Maxim, etc. = all men's fantasies. in reality,
their advice doesn't even apply to, much less work for, most
readers. it's like a joke.. nice pictures though!

It was all a dream
I used to read Word Up magazine
Salt'n'Pepa and Heavy D up in the limousine
Hangin' pictures on my wall
Every Saturday Rap Attack, Mr. Magic, Marley Marl
I let my tape rock 'til my tape popped
Smokin' weed and bamboo, sippin' on private stock
Way back, when I had the red and black lumberjack
With the hat to match
Remember Rappin' Duke, duh-ha, duh-ha
You never thought that hip hop would take it this far
Now I'm in the limelight 'cause I rhyme tight
Time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade
Born sinner, the opposite of a winner
Remember when I used to eat sardines for dinner
Peace to Ron G, Brucey B, Kid Capri
Funkmaster Flex, Lovebug Starsky
I'm blowin' up like you thought I would
Call the crib, same number same hood
It's all good

And if you don't know, now you know

Magazine called Computer! Totaal is what I'm subscribed to.
It's about (guess what?) computers, software and latest
gadgets.

i am surprised no one has mentioned "Grooves Magazine"

an experimental electronic music magazine, and a good one at
that :D

I'm ashamed to admit I sometimes buy Rolling Stone. And I
often pick up Guitar World, Guitar Player, etc, to learn
some new songs and riffs.

The only reading material I pick up with regularity is The
Hockey News, though.

Electronic Gaming Monthly. I've bought this probably for 3
years straight, but I've never suscribed. I really should.

2004!

Yeah, I did the same thing for years, I bought Ultra Game
Players (the BEST magazine ever, just hilarious... I cried
when they went under), Game Pro and EGM all the time, but
never subscribed. I would have saved well over a billion
dollars.

I've tried to keep every video game magazine I've ever
bought dating back to 1989, I've still got hundreds.

I had a whole bunch dating back to late '95 (jeez '89 that's
a whole lot) including tips and tricks, gamepro, egm and i
threw them all out when i moved a year or so ago. It was
sad.
