Tyler in Maxim

christ, maxim and blender...why don't they ever put shit about chuck in respectable magazines like rolling stone?

who was #? the term-ah-nae-tah?
fuck Maxim. it's like Playboy, except they don't nipples. they had an article in there once about the top 64 rules that men should never break, and they were all about the sanctity of football and always putting yourself above women to prove your manliness. this may sound strange coming from, supposedly, a man, but fuck all that uber-masculine compensation bullshit.

I'm thinking maybe another "Men's Magazine" isn't what we need...

very clever, which is hard to do, being clever by semi-quoting Chuck on a Chuck site.
how's that working out for you? being clever?
that line is sig worthy, my friend.

it was indeed clever.

i'd like to see more just plain good magazines, that aren't for men or women or skateboarders or anything else...just a well-written magazine on a variety of subjects.

agreed, insomnomaniac
you know what mag.i like, even though many of the articles are geared towards people with good hearts and happy smiles, neither of which i have: Reader's Digest. even though you have to wade thorugh sappy shit geared to convince people that they're not worthless vessels of resentment and bile, you find some pretty blatantly honest articles in there; stuff on general health, world travels, etc, and there's all those Word Power things that make you think a lot harder than Are You A Jealous Girlfriend quizzes and stupid shit like that.
National Geographic, too. i used to love the hell out of that magazine. i can't remember the last time i read a popular modern magazine and either learned something or felt challenged to do so.
i have no subscriptions to anything.

i actually find rolling stone closest to the ideal. sometimes i get pissed off about seeing ppl like christina aguilera on their cover, but their writers are so goddamned good. i esp. like their political and news pieces. often the best in the business, even though they're a music mag.

mother jones is another one that's pretty good, but very political.

i have read a few great pieces and a lot of good ones in RD but in general it has a heavy conservative bias that i don't appreciate. they also tend to publish mass-hysteria pieces pretty blithely, you know, the "Your Kid is On Drugs and Could Be the Next D.C. Sniper!!!" stuff.

[i]Discover[/i] is a great magazine, actually. Incredibly fascinating science stories but understandable to ppl like me who are retarded in science and math.

I tend to find myself reading so-called "men's" magazines like [i]Esquire[/i] and [i]GQ[/i] and [i]Details[/i] because unlike women's magazines, these magazines:

1) manage not to insult the intelligence of its entire target audience on a regular basis
2) put celebrities I actually want to read about on the cover
3) contain pictures of gorgeous men, which are strangely lacking in women's magazines supposedly geared toward straight girls.

true.
i dunno, i guess i grew up on RD.
actually, now that i think about it, i can't think of any magazines that i think are worth more than the pictures and the occasional mildly entertaining article.
to me, a magazines sole purpose is to have something to read so you don't feel uncomfortable when you end up in the living room of somebody you just met, or when you're at a doctor's office, or something......

...and yet whenever i end up in the dr.'s office, there's only golf digest to read, which is pretty much the only printed material in english-- even including cereal boxes, shampoo bottles, grocery store circulars, [i]Seventeen[/i], [i]Better Homes and Gardens[/i], [i]Muscle Mania[/i], Danielle Steele novels, and instruction manuals--that I absolutely won't read, even if I'm bored.

Being clever is just not working out for me.

izen and i are clever enough for everyone today.

word

"you need to realise that you are stupid and that you are one day going to die"

oh yeah? well take this, conctantly-quoting-Chuck newbie:
"you are not your signed Chuck book."

No im much more than that. I'm 6 signed books and signed fake vomit. pffft as if id just be merley one singed book. give this newbie who thinks hes been a chuck fan longer than chucks been writting some credit.

plus i look sexy with a red tie and brown jacket.

hehe, he called you a newbie, how can he know?
sobre=bores=sober, hehe

amen, nightrious. i fucking hate hate hate football fans, goddam idiots, "my team lost" & "our team is doing bad" & what you said, "we need to work on defense."
morons.......

Stuff and Maxim are great magazines... and not just because of the women (who are nice) but there is a variety of subjects in there.... military stuff, serial killers, and various other things... It's a Men Humor Mag more or less....
