Is FHM still distributed in N. America? I can't remember the last time I saw an issue. Seems like Maxim took their readership.

None of the people on the magazine are white. You fail, as usual.

Yes. Saying that their new "love guru" is "hot and spicy as the reddest kimchi" is highly offensive.

Probably could've gotten by without the caption, but people are stupid.

Pretty terrible photo for a cover as well.

Did i call any of those women the white martyr? No I did not.

You are our resident white knight attempting to point out the hypocrisy of others. That and linking your blogs and mailers is your whole political outlook.

Bravo!

That's the problem these days. People go out of their way to find racism that others don't see. I guess theses days, half Filipino is white.

Here's an interesting article:

I like how you've gotten to the point where you are just immediately mad.

I wouldn't spend as much time on this forum if I were as mad as you are at it.

i'm not mad though. Nice try though. i think most people are stupid self serving idiots. No point in getting mad at things as they are. It is what it is.

Yeah because I go from thread to thread posting my own version of mailers and the blogs of political hacks talking about right wing conspiracies and talking the democratic party line.

:rolleyes

Now that you mention it though you do have your supposed conspiracy of scientists to ensure grant money and you do link your mailers in every thread so from a behavior standpoint you pretty much are the GOP version of boutons.

At least when I call you a liar i point to where you said that you got a chart from someplace that you did not get said chart from or in this case when I call you the white martyr its on the basis of your current crusade to point out racism from non-white races.

Now I realize that stupid people prefer easy comparisons rather than actually looking at something but if you are going to compare me to someone at least do it with someone that I actually behave and think like.

Very very fuckin racist. I'm utterly appalled. Phil Jackson symbolizes a gay slave owner much in love with his money maker negro slaves.
