Spare me your "Phosph this and Phosph that..."
Is your constitution shattered? Do you poop out at parties? Then try...

Yanno, if it's good enough for the frickin' Empress of Russia, it's good enough for me.
Question: Where do people get old magazines anymore? I don't see them in thrift shops or garage sales like I once did. Maybe Estate Sales are a better bet? This ad came from a book about World War One.
Observation for Mods: If you want a physical prize for the barf food contest, have you considered sending the winner several boxes of Lime Jello? Then they could create their own wonderful dishes at home. And it's gotta be ~Lime~ - I'm just sayin'.

I never find old magazines any more and it sucks. I used to get them at a funny old bookshop, till it closed, and increasingly the replacement funny old bookshops don't have them any more.
I used to love True Romance magazines. The ridiculous photos! The horribly conformist stories!

I'd only find True Romances lying around the laudromat for some reason. There always seems to be at least one article that was about how someone "made me a woman" which I don't entirely understand. How are you "made" a woman - you either are or you ain't.
Romance comic books were pretty funny - I don't think they produce them anyomre but my sister used to have a bunch. I believe they were written by middle-aged men and they were pretty reactionary. I remember one about a "Woman's Libber" carrying a protest sign who eventually realizes that serving her man was the true path to happiness.
Man, I'd love to find a pile of those in the thriftstore~
