    One less magazine that I have to read at BigBoxOfBooks while drinking my frozen coffee drink. How is Bust doing?

    I watched the vid the first time around and had to use some serious solvents to clear that out. I'm not venturing into the transcripts.


    But I admire your ambition!

    I thought Blender was just an excuse to get singers into pose in very little clothing, like top 40's Maxim? Did anyone actually pay for that magazine? I went to a show two years ago and suddenly found it appearing in my mailbox long thereafter.

    It had its hits and misses. It was just so dated by the time it hit stands- that was a major problem.

    I can only assume that the "undisclosed reasons" for which editor Jim Kaminsky is leaving Maxim are that:


    1) Maxim is an awful, terrible magazine


    and


    2) Maxim is an awful, terrible magazine

    This is a bummer, because I always really enjoyed Blender. I thought it was the Gawker of music magazines--the writing was sharp and snarky and there were a few good recurring features.

    @TheHonJudgeSmails: it's the Jezebel writers who are down with the date rape, not the commenters. I think the commenters are luke warm about it.

    @FracturedAcetabulum: Here's the quote on Moe Tcazik and sexual regret:


    Moe: "I guess, I like, regret being date raped"


    Moe: "It seems like in terms of bad sexual experiences, that you have, the worst ones are in, always seem to be in countries where sex is not accepted. That is the good thing about New York, I've never has any problems with anyone here."


    Moe: "I guess third guy, I ever had sex with, date raped me, and I got very mad at him, but I wasn't gonna fucking like turn him in to the police and fucking go through shit..


    Lizz interrupts: "Why not, you see that's the problem, why not, I am just curious?"


    Moe: Because it was a load of trouble and I had better things to do, like drinking more."


    God I forgot how bad this thing was:
