The Mega-Zine Museum
September 8, 1997
THE FANATIC wants to know other 'ziners' fave B-sides of 1997 so far. Theirs is Whenever She Comes Around and Standing On My Own by Travis, from Tied to the 90s.
SNAIL WITH DREADS thinks The Girl Who Had Her Cake and Choked is naive. Punk is alive and making great music. It's about "attitude and DIY culture". (Eh?)
HAN SOLO'S UNDERPANTS fancies the pants off Han Solo. Oh, and asks those who haven't watched the Star Wars trilogy to not criticise it. Watch it first.
DEAR 'ZINE
T'other day I was in the bathroom, quietly reading my Star Wars book on the loo.
My mother suddenly shouted, "Who's in there?" and rattled the door knob.
I found this odd as we were the only people in the house at the time. Did she think a stranger had stolen into our house to use the loo? Mum, you're weird.
The Boy Who Luvs The Smashing Pumpkins
Maybe she thought you weren't in there
AS YOU WERE SILENT, BROW FURROWED.
TO 'ZINERS
Last night I was talking to Elvis Presley on my walkie talkie and he told me he doesn't like KitKats and that his favourite sweet is a Mars Bar.
He told me to dump Crispian Mills and to elope with him. I told him to get lost.
Crispian has gone after him to sort him out. I hope Crispy will be OK. Don't worry, he took his gun of Skittles.
Mel C in disguise
As long as the lardy one doesn't sit
ON HIM HE'LL BE FINE, NOT FLAT.
DEAR 'ZINERS
I think the Iceland ad is sexist.
Do mums get their shopping done for them, then have it packed by professional packers, while everyone else has to endure slow old ladies, indecisive single men at the TV dinners section and the general all-round annoyance of the local Iceland?
I think not. More like no-one else does the shopping except good ol' mum.
A peeved but gorgeous Taylor's Whisper
WLW's solution to supermarket rage is:
GROW YOUR OWN VEG, DON'T WASH
DEAR 'ZINE
Why do school dinner ladies look like jam rolls?
What's so great about the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?
Why are pink wafer biscuits moreish?
Why is AFKA so vain?
Why are we here?
Star Girl
You remind me of that girl in the BT ad
"WHOI DO I SAY WHOI AND NOT WHY?"
