The Mega-Zine Museum

DEAR MEGA-ZINE,
So you won't ignore me? So you'll print anything? Print this.
Mega-zine is a pitiful name... actually, Mega-zine is pitiful full stop. Your letters are either from people who think anyone who doesn't like their music is "sad" or people who think they're surreal and mysterious and cool.
And they're not. They're pathetic. You make me sick.

WE THANKYOU, FATS! MISS YOU ALREADY!
DEAR MEGA-ZINE,
I'd like to complain about the bad publicity East 17 are getting. They are being classed as a Take That, Worlds Apart, Bad Boys Inc sort of band who have no musical talent and are only popular because immature teenage girls fancy them. E17 aren't like that.
Brian is the only one who's good-looking, they can rap as well as sing and dance, John plays the guitar and keyboards and their songs have meaning and are not just about love.

You say what's on your mind, Girl!
DEAR MEGA-ZINE,
After reading your Profile page, I was horrified to see that Dexter Fletcher had been put on Gamesmaster to "attract more girls".
DEXTER FLETCHER?! Get real! At least Dominik Diamond has a sense of humour!
But personally, I'd rather watch it for what it's really about and what really interests me - computers! And I'm sure plenty of other girls do, too. I think the comment was unnecessary and sexist.
