MAD Magazine is still around... and they're still on target !!!

[ailsagirl]

Here's their year-end issue... it's pretty obvious they share our disgust!!



I saw it on a newstand and leafed through it-- there's another page that
shows cartoon people (from New Orleans) all yelling, "WHERE'S W???"

1. I lost all my respect for MAD when they went color...

and started accepting ads.
Gaines is spinning in his grave.

5. No ads meant Gaines could print what he wanted.

Eight issues a year, every 40 days or so. Ensured a quality product.

Can you all imagine if Gaines was still around? Head-on collisions with the AFA, Focus on the Family, and every wannabe right-wing swiftboating operation on the continent. I guarantee Gaines would win.

4. Is "High Times" still around?

"Rampant" is doing well.

6. Yes

High Times is still around

7. They still get it right once in a while

That issue is worth getting.

8. No doubt MAD formed the mindset of many a DUer.

Everything smells like bullshit to me thanks to them.

9. Amen, tuvor!!

MAD has been around since I was young-- and that's been quite awhile now!!

Didn't Hilary Clinton say something awhile back comparing junior to Alfred
E. Newman? The repukes REALLY blew their stacks at that one!!

:rofl:

10. Hey, ailsagirl, Happy New Year!

I didn't realize you were the OP! :blush:

Don't know if you've seen this graphic yet; I noticed it only recently. Right up your alley, I'm hunching.



Hope you had a good holiday!

11. Hi Tuvor

Same to you!! Hope things are going well for you.
I'm still not tired of the rain, can you believe it?

:)

12. It helps when it's mild, so I'm especially happy!

Plus, I spent my first 30 years in Edmonton.

Weatherwise, anything different from that is a dream!
