BESTLIFE = bullshit men's mag of all time

Just put some peanut butter on the “time bomb” and the dog will deactivate it with his tongue.

I get this for free too, don’t remember where from though.

The article on prostate cancer was actually really good.

The rest is fluff and seems to be aimed at pretty wealthy people.

Yeah, give a dog a bone.

I sure as fuck can’t. The written content is the stupidest shit ever, and the pictoral content isn’t naked. What the hell is there to like?

In this case, to understand is not to praise. I think there are several segments for these mags. To wit, guys who…

*Want to see celeb chicks as naked as possible

*Would feel guilty about real pr0n for religious or other reasons

*Who are young (gateway pr0n)

*Who are under heavy surveilance by wives, girlfriends, mothers, etc., but who can get away with this level

*Who simply don’t like naked pr0n but enjoy bikini pr0n

*Who enjoy the smutty, suggestive atmosphere of these mags

I can make you a maaaaaa-aaa-aa-aa-aaaan! </RHPS>

I’m surprised no one else has said that yet.

I think the point of the pitting is to slap some sense into the makers of the magazine: there is no way a man is going to buy it or hear about it unless he is introduced to its article delicacies by the beginning sentence “Honey…”

Well, I used to read Maxim when it first came out. The soft-core pron was OK, but what sold me on it was that some of the articles were screamingly funny. Raunchy laugh out loud stuff. But then it seemed to fixate more on a younger demographic after a year or two and the articles stopped being so funny and I stopped reading it.

Plus, as has been pointed out by Camille Paglia, who likes her woman flesh a lot, the photography in Maxim is or was topnotch – msot of the actresses and models who appear in Maxim rarely look as good in any other publication’s pictorials. But frankly, for sheer raunchy softcore, I think American Curves leads the pack right now.

Where can you look at a copy of Bestlife? Is it like GQ or one of those other “men’s” magazines whose pages are filled with images of men wearing clothes instead of women not wearing clothes?

You think so? The few times I’ve looked in Maxim, I’ve been struck by their unique ability to take very attractive women and make them look like hell.

Melissa Joan Hart looked superficially hot but so airbrushed as to look like a wax dummy.

Interested parties can go to Maxim’s website and judge for yourselves. I dunno if it’s worksafe or not, but it’s at maximonlinedotcom or thereabouts. They have photo galleries of some of their models in the non member section.

I personally think they do a good job.

Funny. That’s exactly what I would have expected…
