    What a coincidence! These are exactly the sorts of things that the banks have been saying just before they join the choir invisible.

    And this clip has become handy. (Substitute "Heeb" for "parrot.")

    I'm sure that many other people have made this point in the past, but Heeb always seemed like a pale imitation of the excellent zine Plotz. Having said, I've haven't seen an issue of Heeb for a while, so maybe this is no longer the case.

    Who ever bought an issue of Heeb?

    Between Heeb, Jewcy & Jewlicious the only thing I could figure out differentiated them were what "witty" t-shirts and onesies they sold.

    If they go under, how will I bribe, uh, certain people by promising to get them into the Heeb 100????

    In reply to 'Twitter' Is Word of Sexless Year
    I think Twitter is one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse, but I would have expected the verb form, "tweet," to be the so-called "top word." Isn't Twitter a brand name? At least Google has been turned into a verb. Aren't we celebrating the related human activity that Twitter promotes and not the actual thing? Unless they just think Twitter is the verb. Am I overthinking this? Can we spend the next 20 minutes conjugating?

    I think the most shocking and depressing thing about this is that the guy who runs ClubPlanet.com has $40m to throw around.

    God, I used to love this magazine--loved the humor, the fashion, the choice of cover models... Now, I don't know who any of the "models" are, the cover design is awful, and the content...well, now that I think about it, I can't remember the last time I read the content.

    O Rly? $300 mil? With what sort of content exactly? Very soft core pics of hot chicks? Lame "humor" that does nothing innovative and merely thumps its chest about how non-PC it is? The occasional badly written tough-guy article about some guy's EXTREME undercover ops at a motorcycle gang/drug gang/Mob family? Some other semi-pictorial article about what pickup lines work best? Everything I listed is easily replicable and is found elsewhere in large quantities.

    So this company, one of the leaders worldwide in terms of the number of titles it publishes, made less than $50 million in revenue and $4 million in profit? Hmm, that's about the size of a smallish newspaper or a midsize single title consumer magazine. Sounds hopeful, for sure.

    Airplanes in America still have in flight magazines? Fuck, in Europe some of the airlines now charge you to use the toilet. Seriously, my girlfriend was on a plane a little while ago and to get in the toilet you had to insert either a two euro or two pound coin. If they gave you a magazine they'd probably charge you five bucks for it.

    @drunkexpatwriter: No offense, but sounds apocryphal. A quick google search reveals nothing about airlines actually charging, and only Ryanair seems to have considered it (and even then, Ryanair has a long history of making noise for noise's sake). What airline / when was this?

    @basket548: RyanAir.

    I think they were testing it out (as they seem to do with all their "brilliant" ideas on the Montpellier route. )

    I think they use us to see how pissed off people will get because we don't get a lot of traffic.

    They are also talking about testing out their smoke free cigs on flight on our route.

    It's also amazing how all the useless, overpriced crap in Sky Mall seems incredibly innovative, reasonably priced and essential whenever I forget to bring a book to read on a flight.
