Weasels Ripped My Flesh
Posted by Qais Fulton
Apparently, the unimaginative dullards at Man’s Life — not content filling the pages of their rag with scintillating tales of sexy, suburban deviants — have begun to pilfer tales from my own life to entertain the hordes of myopic misanthropes that patronize their dubious ilk. It’s been downhill ever since Mogo the Mugger, erudite caveman extraordinaire, left Man’s Life. Though in all fairness, filling the monstrous shoes of that ill-mannered Lothario is no easy task.

Is it just me, or does that look like David Bowie?
Also: Sin Happy Vacationists?

It should be noted that this particular magazine cover was the inspiration for the title of, and cover art for, Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention’s album by the same name.

You are quite welcome, sir.

Matt Groening famously said, “Love is a snowmobile racing across the tundra and then suddenly it flips over, pinning you underneath. At night, the ice weasels come.” Was he thinking of this?

@TheManeki Oh yeah! that’s where that comes from. I think someone told me that the name of the browser “IceWeasel” comes from that quote. I lol’d.

amazon has a whole book of these fantastic lurid magazine covers, It’s A Man’s World (look it up yourself).
they run the gamut from Man attacked by Animals, Man attacked by Fish, Man attacked by Nazis, Man attacked by Hippies.
the greatest, however, is an image of a mad nazi doktor sawing off a girl’s arm, his “special” assistant is bringing him the freshly removed (and bandaged!) arm of a gorilla, which is seen sulking morosely in a cage in the background. i recommend the book for this image alone. if there’s any interest, i’ll post my scan of it somewhere.

Your bloody ectochat doesn’t work for me, I keep getting error disconnects for some reason.
