I bought a magazine package subscription a long time ago for a ridiculously low price, and I've been receiving a bunch of magazines for what seems like forever, one of them being Maxim.
I've thought it's been going downhill for a while now. It used to be a bunch of dumb humor with pictures of scantily clad women. Perfect. A bit sophomoric, but entertaining nonetheless. Now it is like a bad GQ rip-off that features jokes I was telling years ago, and "fashion" spreads of clothing either too hideous of hideously expensive to ever own.
But now they have crossed the line.
I just opened the latest issue and went straight to page 58 that was advertised on the cover as "The 99 best beers on earth."
On the first page of the article is "The Big Boys." OK, get a little bit of sucking up to your advertisers out of the way; I admit that MGD can have a place in the summer heat, and I won't turn one down at a BBQ at a friends house. What's on the next page?
"Canned Heat," featuring Gordon's Ale from Oscar Blues!! Great beer! Wait, in the same category as Busch light? And Coors Light!?!?? And Old Milwaukee!?!?!?!?!? WHAT THE ****?!?!
It goes on like that! A bunch of categories with cheap, crappy BMC and worse that I might drink if it is given to me for free. There are about five beers on the list I, and most of you, might consider buying for myself.
This whole damn list reads like "99 cheapest beers you can buy" with a few exceptions. I know this damn magazine is supposed to target the frat demographic, but GODDAMMIT (<--really, that's in the spell checker?) WHO THE **** THINKS THESE ARE 99 OF THE BEST BEERS?!?!?! THAT BASTARD NEEDS TO BE LYNCHED!!!!!!
At this point I have calmed down a bit and considered that I need a word to hurl at the people at Maxim. A word better than "****."
MEECROB YOU MAXIM!!!!!!! A THOUSAND MEECROBS ON YOU, YOUR FAMILIES, YOUR PETS, AND THE COUSINS OF YOUR PETS!!!!!!!!!! GO TAKE A FLYING **** AT A ROLLING DOUGHNUT, PISS ON YOUR MOTHERS, GO MASTURBATE WITH A CHEESE GRATER, AND DIE!!!!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
