Well, I think it's really disturbing that people now are using these terms like 'alternative topics' and 'un-p.c.' to describe articles that make fun of minorities, women, the mentally retarded, an on and on, and applaud them for 'pushing the envelope'. Why does taking pictures of people puking constitute 'pushing the envelope'? They're selling a lifestyle that's a complete con. And I know, they're not the only ones. But basically, by selling this to young people, they're saying, 'Hey world, check it out, this whole generation is a bunch of fucking idiots, don't bother to take them seriously.' And to us it basically says 'Live like this 'cause all that matters is getting fucked up and boning chicks and laughing at people who look funny'.
Great message. Really cool!

the magazine is funny at times. I think the one guy is going too far acting like it is defining a generation or something. ease up. Also, biting the skaters styles is true, but I dont think I would want to lump myself in with any trends as far as fashion and other crap goes. Kinda makes you come off as a 15 year old girl.

haha... if that was directed at me, then just let me say that just because i notice style trends doesn't mean i participate in them... hell i've been wearing the same skate shirts for like ten years now. I just think it's funny that people think they're so original with some of this shit.

I know what you mean tfs, it was just a general statement, not really directed at anyone.

i love the magazine, it's brilliant, the writing, the comedy, and everything in between. i used to get it a lot when i worked in nyc but not anymore...fuck long island...

fashion is fashion is fashion...
fashion mags sell ad space. fashion like all industries has more than its fair share of wankers who believe their own hype. some can write. some can't. some are funny. some aren't. cultural tourism etc. vice might have the lead in the self awareness stakes for now. f*** - i'm boring myself here.
