why is gq sent to me

a month ago, i receive a copy of GQ magazine in the mail.
it is addressed to me by name, at my address. the cover
features justin bieber. i think: "they're just sending it to
me hoping i'll like it and subscribe, and, well, good luck
with that"

then another copy showed up again, just now, and i'm rather
confused: should i check my credit card statements for fraud
or something? or is this just a superbly dumb waste of money
trying to sell me on something i'll never, ever buy?

the first issues are free, bill comes later

we always talked about prank ordering stuff to people,
when we were kids; never did tho

was juuust old enough to order 2600, download phrack,
modify a radio shack tone dialer to be a red box and have it
work precisely once before they digitized everything.
i remember, my friend and i were looking at each other,
like... shit? really? did that work? did that really just
happen? then there was no conversation; we just left very
quickly. we'd never pulled this shit off before and what if
burly men from the phone company show up? obviously silly in
retrospect, but 16 years old, you know...

then dave wright, aka not breathing, kind of my weird
internet older brother for many years... he says: you might
enjoy longmont potion castle. and, indeed, i did, and my
aforementioned friend became almost obsessed with the guy.
he texted me once, "i'm on a business trip to colorodo and
i've made a pilgrimage to the corner of simms and oak"

that, in fact, we managed to dox him pretty thoroughly. i
have a name, phone number, address. latter two probably
years out of date... but, hey, we can prank call him
now, and... uhhh... we just never had the stones. that, in
fact, you could shove a knife up my anus and i would not
tell you any of it. the man is a national treasure and i
utterly refuse to be the one that ruins it.

but my friend and i, we actually got into a spat a few times
-- longmont potion castle was, like, weird, surrealistic.
calling someone at 3am repeatedly and then they scream at
you, that's funny for a bit, but, like, alright man, i
actually want to do nice prank calls? if that makes sense?
or at least surreal instead of obnoxious

we also hung out with the Phone Losers of America for a bit.
another level, there. they'd talk about stuff like "pick a
day you're not busy, pick someone who sucks, walk through
the phonebook and make an appointment with everyone, every
plumber, electrician on that day. and show up with popcorn
and perhaps a camera"

however, we would do this to each other on a small, nice
scale

i mean chances are it wont work or backfire horribly,
but just picturing some asshole trying to plead their case
to handy man after handy man is hilarious. plus the pranked
would have to be at home. not so easy to find out in advance
and stealthily.

a quintuplet of jehovah's witnesses show up at your door in
the pooring rain as you're tripping on acid.

you apologized so much for them coming out here on a night
like this; immature friends and you're so sorry. inwardly,
you're quite mad, but you also really do feel bad for the
poor buggers in the pouring rain for nothing and

but then the ranking witness declares... NBD. however, do
you know anyone else that needs... help

in your current condition, you find this to be so,
incredibly unsettling. like: do you know anyone who is
currently in a vulnerable state?
it's suddenly clear as
a bell; their whole business model

it's such a deeply unsettling, haunting moment. not the
overall incident; but the italics on help. you're a
bit shredded in the minutes after but soon enough you have
it together enough again to call him up and yell at him, you
asshole, you bastard

he laughs the whole time
