GQ chief editor is a complete anti...

Not that it comes as a big surprise, being who the magazine's target audience usually is, but there was nothing else to read in a waiting room, so I picked up the June 2007 issue.

And what do I see as the first feature? A long letter from the chief editor, lauding Michael Moore for his antigun film, asking how many more Virginia Techs before the Democrats start getting tough on gun control, and all the usual BS about how guns kill people and are evil and bad and need to be stopped and taken away. :mad:

Just so you know, if your business does any advertising work with them, they're another company to boycott.
 
And you look at those tough guys in GQ because? Read SWAT for God's sake. The guys in SWAT are ugly and aren't in their Calvin Klein panties!!

No, I didn't buy it but it was the only choice in Supercuts besides Ladies Home Journal. :)
 
Well, it's not like I buy it. :P The only other choices in a waiting room were People and womens' magazines. Not even a Popularly Dumbed-Down Science to flip through.

I'd just wanted to advise anyone whose business might advertise with them that their chief editor is an anti, and that they can take their business elsewhere. Advertisers boycotting a magazine is what really hurts.
 
Sad

I always bring my own reading and make sure it is something I want to check out; a Cabela's catalog, Field and Stream, Invention & Technology, a good book. I'll never get stuck at the saw bones again without something after getting stuck out there with Yachting magazine.

As an aside, I used to read the Brit version of GQ at my old barber's shop; better writing and the ads and articles didn't look like fruity guys in desperate need of a hair cut and/or an ass kicking. Now that I am bald, bald, bald, I go get my beard trimmed at a place that subscribes to Motor Trend, Field and Stream and MAXIM.
 
Do what I do next time you go somewhere where there is usually a wait.

Take an old copy of your NRA magazine, S.W.A.T., Guns & Ammo, whatever with you and read it while you're waiting. When you get called for your appointment, leave the magazine(s) in the waiting room. :)

Spread the Word.
 
Go Blues Man!

That is a sweet idea! I can't wait to drop a copy of Combat Handguns in my wife's doctor's waiting room amid the Woman's Day and Prevention magazines. I'll be a hit for sure!
 
GQ mag. is for the new metro-man(half man,half woman)what did you expect from a magazine about MEN"S FASHION.i didn't think we had fashion,just grabbed what was clean,or at least clean at one time.

+1 Thats how I "recycle" my G&A and Peterson's. Just make sure you take any identifying labels or mailing addresses off.

Not if you want to be successful. I tend to wear a nicely tailored silk/linen Italian suit.

With a shoulder holster concealed in a way that doesn't spoil the taper line. :)

(And if still single...girls do like guys dressing well.) ;)
