hypocrisy?
If you get a porno mag, it often comes wrapped in plastic. I get that. Guess what else does. Out Magazine. Wow, talk about living up to the title, huh?

Gay pride is dead…wrapped in plastic.
(I’m so happy when I can use TWIN PEAKS in-jokes to convey my disappointment in things!)

that is funny because when i saw it was wrapped in plastic, i said “wrapped in plastic” in the voice in my head.

So does The Advocate, for that matter. (We get both Out and The Advocate at the library.) Out can sometimes have beefcakey shirtless-guy photos in it, but the Advocate? It’s a newsmagazine!
It’s probably just a privacy thing, but it still strikes me as weird.

Also, on the topic of Out, I heard two library employees talking about how that is the best magazine to find pictures of hot shirtless men!!!

haha yes, on one hand I get it, if it lets people get info they couldn’t get in another way, sure cool. but come on! It compares a magazine not about sex to porn.

haha on the Lynch thing. Excellent!
BTW, ‘Coastal Living’ also comes wrapped in plastic. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Yes you wouldn’t want anyone to know about your coastal living.
