Always good for a laugh.
Standing in line with my roomie at the local food-o-mart, I glance at the cover of Cosmo and see an article blurb that says "WHAT IF GUYS EDITED COSMO? You'll laugh your butt off!"
"Well," I say to RobertaX, "for starters they'd probably say "ass"."
The funny thing is that the article, with various "lol typical male" fake headlines like "XXX moves that'll seal his devotion forever" and "The right cleavage for every occasion", is almost indistinguishable from regular Cosmo.
I saw that when I was out with the wife. I brought it to her attention and said "Well, for starters, all those 'sex tips to drive your man wild' would actually WORK."
I imagine the "what guys are really thinking" articles would finally be accurate.
Gotta love the irony of a women's mag that proclaims (in every issue, no less!) to be able to get inside a man's head yet finds the thought of a male editor laughable.
We'd also get rid of the skinny broads on the cover and get some more interesting looking women than they usually have.
ReplyDeleteThey already do. It's called Maxim.
ReplyDeletePretty safe bet you wouldn't see the incredible childish "va-jay-jay" and we'd actually know what turns us on.
ReplyDelete...after prOn an this post... things must be slow in Indy...

Articles on "the new spring line-up!" would be replaced with "Stroking or Boring: Which is Right for Your Smallblock?"
ReplyDeleteI had a girlfriend like that once: first she was stroked, then she was bored.
ReplyDeleteOperative word: "once."
Laughingdog and Holly are today's big winners. They took BOTH my ideas.
ReplyDeleteYou know, it occurs to me that Tamara sure does claim to be reading a lot of Cosmo in the checkout line.
ReplyDeleteCould it be... that Tamara... has a *subscription* that arrives at same time her issue of SWAT does?
Hmmm.
What if you combined the two magazines? What might we see?
