ADSUM I nominate Quantum Sheep as 'Ziner of the Year for its thought provoking letters, wit, humour, insight, and generally improving the quality of the 'Zine. Payment due, QS!

EIDOLON Rebellion is the spirit of teen culture. Innocence, the grace of the young. Spontaneity is the soul of society. Diversity, the fuel of life's lung. And Variety, the Spice... NOOOOOO!

 

DEAR 'ZINE

This morning when I awoke I was shocked to discover that my "friends" had applied red nail varnish and blue eye shadow to me as I slept!

I have never looked so beautiful so I shall be donning full make-up every day in future, and to hell with the foreman at the building site where I work.

TO ALL 'ZINERS

I believe I have stumbled upon the secret of how to become a legend among 'Ziners. I shall share this secret with you all.

Firstly, assume an identity, get a few vaguely humorous letters printed, and then disappear.

A few months later adopt a second identity and praise the original identity and repeat this process until other 'Ziners start copying what you're saying.

Now make a brief comeback with the original ID.

The Wonder

Are you calling my bluff or do 'Ziners

TRULY HAVE TIME FOR PSEUDOPSEUDONYMS?

 

WHY MEGA IS BETTER THAN BACKCHAT

  • The editor writes witty comment on the end of every letter, not just some
  • We have the Bishop + Monty Python
  • We can discuss serious issues and have fun as well.
  • We have visual imagery (the blob in the corner)
  • Only the best letters get printed
  • The pag is in bright colours
  • Iron Lion
  • Bob the Fish

Merry Chirstmas everyone, love

Butch Accountant and the Yuppie Kid

Witty comment... um... I can Bob the Fish

BUT I CAN'T DUCK OUT OF THIS ONE!

 

DEAR 'ZINERS

Why spend food money on videos, tickets or the licence fee to see comedy when you can get "care in the community" for free?

Here's a few of the oddballs who live on my estate:

  • The man who walks his dog in an anorak with hood up whatever the weather
  • The woman who throws things at you if you look at her
  • The woman who stands outside the newsagents asking for fags
  • The man who makes strange hand gestures at the bus stop.

Hilarious!
