'Lady Beard'
Our bodies are a law unto themselves. We try to control them as much as we can, but they always warp back to their own sense of physical righteousness. Sometimes that righteousness involves body hair. Facial hair even. For the guys that's just dandy. Not so much for the girls. Yes. Here is a zine about ladybeards.
I hate Masterchef
Sometimes the simple things in life are often the best. Here is a guy who hates Masterchef. He's not an angry rejected would-be contestant, he's not at war with food (see colour photo of his spaghetti cake) and he even watched the original British Masterchef series. But you know what? Masterchef has changed, man.
Weekly zine review #12, 'What is a fruit? What is a vegetable?'
Perhaps this, too, is the most common argument you find yourself getting into: the fruit versus vegetable schism. Statistics* show that 96.5% of all Australians have had this discussion in the last seven years, of which 72% remain unsatisfied with the outcome. And how can it be solved? Science? Reasonable doubt? Raffle? Masterchef forums? Your domestic science teacher? How can some things be wrong when they feel so right? (or vice versa).
Weekly zine review #9 - 'Fergus', issue 21
Time to live vicariously through other people's lives. When the zine devoted to describing other people's living rooms is not enough (livingroom, issues 1 and 2) then maybe the latest issue of Fergus will do the trick. Nothing better than surveying other people's belongings to feel superior/inferior about yourself and your own household objects.
Weekly zine review #10 - How to write a Mills and Boon-esque Bodice Ripper Novel
When the library graduate diploma doesn't work out for you, there's always a future pumping out bodice-ripping novels. Leopoldina Van Wowser Ainswright (best selling author of A Quiet Sennight to Undulating Tranquility, Antipodean Odyssey and A Fistful of Phosphorescence) shares her professional advice for the first time, providing precious guidance and insight into the fine art of romance, lust, and sexual oppression.
Weekly zine review #8 - SUP-HO
Introducing the world's finest universal comic, Sup-Ho 1, from the legendary Dead Xerox Press reclusive island base, with no electricity, seven hours by boat from mainland NZ. In the creator's own words this issue came out "a bit weird" but weird is what we like and... just because the printing has come out a little disjointed doesn't mean this isn't an ace read.
Weekly zine review #6 - Adventure Time
The same-old same-old not doing it for you anymore? Find yourself wanting MORE? Bored with yourself, even? Maybe it's time to read about Maddy, the Zinester Girl Who Could. Dissatisfied with everyday, predictable life she starts up an 'Adventure Time! Fun Club' with other uni nerds and they go visiting the observatory (they really do).
