PABLOHONEY I would also like to nominate Blue Raisan for 'Ziner of the year - you're great and I love you. Sounds like you found a Sun Maid!
SUPER FURRY GIRL Are there any 'Ziners out there who empathise with my love of surrealness, great bands, purple docs, hatred of monarchy etc...? Fish.
PSYCHOPATH WITH PERFECT TEETH New game! Pop group pairs: find two groups that rhyme, like, Black Lace - Space, The Manics - Mike and the Mechanics! I like.
ON CONSIDERING A VEGETARIAN DIET
Let us not mope over the cauliflower
Nor visit the toilet every hour.
You may save many cows
By the meat you refuse
But then you'll fell more forests
With the loo roll you'll lose.
When you visit, I cook for you
An aubergine bake,
But when I visit,
do you grill me
A tender piece of steak?
Myopic Melon
Why, honey dew, do you have the hump?
WHERE'S THE JOY IN EATING A RUMP?
TO ALL INTELLIGENT 'ZINERS
I'm fed up with the blase, jejune, inane, fatuous and childish ranting that is usually on here (that which Blue Raisan (sic) advocates).
So I decided to write something I think is more worthwhile.
Why do you think so many people, irrationally, believe in a god or in astrology or in other such mumbo-jumbo?
TMBGE's Boyfriend feeling like the only vegan in the world (except TMBGE)
And your worthwhile rational opinion?
HEAVENS! BLASPHEMING WHILE 'ZINE-ING
WLW
What has happened to the 'Zine I once knew and loved?
It seems that to get a letter printed it must contain a poem about a pointless subject, a request for meaningless love from anyone or endless praise for Blue Raisan.
I'm not trying to be an individual and rebel against the 'Zine and I don't hate Blue Raisan. I just think he/she/it is a tad overrated.
Sorry, just being honest.
The BB Man - I love a free country
The 'Zine has a life of it's own, BB.
IF YOU THINK IT'S DISEASED, CURE IT!
TEN REASONS TO HATE THE SPICE GIRLS
- Triumph of marketing over content
- Appropriating all female achievement as free advertising via Girl Power
- One-dimensional personality nick-names
- Excessive merchandising
- Downward musical slide after Wannabe
- Upstaging Gary Lineker
- Image and lyrics equating assertiveness with sexuality
- Arsing about in interviews
- Thatcherism
- Overexposure.
Myopic Melon
Over-exposed? I'll say...
SPICE UP YOUR... BARE CHEEK!
TRIPPY HIPPY: Hi ya, after reading 'Zine for a number of years I decided it was time I entered the twisted, trippy world of Mega-Zine. So hello, and that's it! See ya!
