The Mega-Zine Museum
October 29, 1997
ORANGE-EYED DAISY says WLW should get its tongue pierced. Then you'd be Mel B with bleached hair. An alternative No1... I couldn't complain.
THE INFAMOUS BUBBLE GUM KILLER appeals to 'Ziners to "take a chance on a chick like me". Wouldn't fancy her wriggling her sticky paws around me, if the standard of her poetry is anything to go by.
MISS RINGO'S DRUMSTICKS says stationery box pens are useless. They make her work look scruffy. Heard the saying "a poor workman blames his tools"?
DEAR 'ZINE
I'm sick of the total small mindedness of some people. If you don't like the bands that the mass majority like, then you're considered weird.
Any band that hasn't gone Top 10 is considered crap, even some that have gone Top 10 are supposedly useless if they're not trendy or commercial enough.
Also, any blokes in eye-liner or skirts are called puffs and laughed at for not conforming to the majority's so-called standards.
Super Furry Girl
Down that old path again... come on guys
KISS AND MAKEUP (DON'T BLUSH-ER)
HELP 'ZINE!!!
We're in dire straits. No, not the group. It all started when we were watching telly instead of doing our prep.
The Spice Girls were on and we liked the song. But my mum said they sounded like Abba!
All 'Zine cred is now gone. Where do we go from here? Who will have us now?
Wombers and Rodders
MAMA MIA, what can be done?
A CASE OF SO LONG, I'M AFRAID!
POINTLESS THOUHTS ON MEN
All the blokes I've ever met are so empty and shallow.
I'd love, just once, to meet a man who talks in slow, quiet romanticisms; like he's telling me the words of a song he loves; who will whisper me bedtime stories that don't make sense; who has more in his head than football.
If only...
Dazy, Girl From Mars
I have a feeling we've had this pitch
BEFORE - WHERE'S YOUR PERFECT MATCH?
HEY, WLW
I think the Teletubbies are doing a brill job educating little kids. I mean there's Dipsy, who acknowledges the rabbits. It encourages children to think about animals' feelings.
Then Po, who, when travelling on her scooter, makes noises and honks to let the tubbies know she's coming. Great for road safety.
Laa-Laa is always happy and singing, and kids love to copy her. And then there's Tinky Winky. Need I say more? His handbag says it all.
Naff Nymph
Uh-oh, were you brainwashed by the
UNDULATING HANDBAG, OR ARE YOU NUTS?
