Too soon? Perhaps.
Humorless? Indubitably.

Eh, two thumbs down submitter.

wow maxim is lame, how about some jokes about Sonny Bono skiing into a tree or John Denver crashing a plane...

ArcadianRefugee: That would make a nice present for my ex.

That's just totally lame. Are they trying to be funny or are they just trying to be stupid?
 
2006-09-21 6:56:43 PM  
Not funny and tasteless? How...I don't know, is sponsored the word?
 
2006-09-21 6:59:54 PM  
I don't care about taste but that offended my sense of the funny.
 
2006-09-21 7:01:19 PM  
maybe they should have used the stupid tag
 
2006-09-21 7:01:29 PM  
As usual, Maxim fails to amuse. At least it's another excuse to post my own tasteless photoshop.

yes, stingrays have eyes, Maxim Idiots. And they are on the tops of their bodies, not the underside with the mouth.

ventura county govt thinks maxim online = pornography

That's just silly. Maxim and the other mags like it are for the guys who don't have the guts to buy actual porn

One of the finest greenlights in Fark history.

Great job, mods.
 
2006-09-21 7:11:08 PM  
Maxim: Nothing amusing about them. Ever.
 
2006-09-21 7:17:37 PM  
One mugshot was funny. The other 2 with hats on? LAME.

That's like the guy at the party that makes a funny reference, everyone laughs, so he keeps making the same stupid reference over and over again until someone rightly punches him in the nuts.
 
2006-09-21 7:19:58 PM  
I'm guessing that the people responsible for this are also a part of Larry the Cable Guy's think tank.

Not funny.
 
2006-09-21 7:20:40 PM  
You guys need to remember Drew makes tons of cash from sponsored links. You think this kind of shiat would make it on the mainpage with a kickback? Imagine being able to drive 15,000 users to a site. That's worth a lot of cash.

//i concur. i find that mocking someones death is only funny years (or at least months) later.

As I said in the other thread if you are selling those shirts I will buy at least one. Love it!

Reward: One year of free dinners at Red Lobster.

So Maxim is trying to encourage people to go out and slaughter stingrays?

Maxim wants to lower the population of retards by sending them out to get stunk in the heart.

lol

This is the first time I've ever said this, but... why was this greenlit again?

//Yes, yes, hasn't been mentioned at all so far in-thread yet, I know.
 
2006-09-21 7:46:48 PM  
Crikey.

Jument: As I said in the other thread if you are selling those shirts I will buy at least one. Love it!

I'm not, it's just a joke, but I'm glad you like it.

ArcadianRefugee: Holy cow. Are those just dried stingrays or are they supposed to look like aliens?
 
2006-09-21 8:05:48 PM  
I wonder if anyone from Maxim ever reads the comments threads for what they submit. Probably not, considering this submission. You were novel and interesting when you came out eight or so years ago, Maxim. No more though.

Is anyone here a marine biologist?
 
2006-09-21 8:21:55 PM  
ghey.
 
2006-09-21 8:30:17 PM  
Is anyone here a marine biologist?

What would you like to know?

/not a marine biologist, but pretty damned knowledgeable...
 
2006-09-21 8:37:13 PM  
I would expect much better from Maxim.

/Not.

If I ever pick up a Maxim, it blows my mind how bad and not funny the articles are. I'm pretty sure it is a magazine written by Eighth Graders. That said, it is also pr0n for men too timid to buy real pr0n, and a waste of time.

That would mean all the maxim writers are suicidal.
 
2006-09-21 9:33:04 PM  
The thing I hate about Maxim Online is that when they have a top 10 list, they divide it up into pages (i.e. number 10's on one page, "click here for number 9", etc).
 
2006-09-21 9:33:47 PM  
Wow, not funny. Not because it's tasteless but because it wasn't funny.
 
2006-09-21 9:49:25 PM  
Mugato: Wow, not funny. Not because it's tasteless but because it wasn't funny.

Well said. Obviously we have some Maxim fans for moderators here, because someone thought this crap was funny.

drredhook: I wonder if anyone from Maxim ever reads the comments threads for what they submit.

Good question, but irrelevent: I submitted this and I don't work for Drew, Maxim or hold stock in either.
 
2006-09-21 10:03:49 PM  
Methinks this calls for some Perry Bible Fellowship.
 
2006-09-21 10:47:54 PM  
Worst. Link. Evar!

Reward is one year of free dinner at Red Slobster? Who the hell would eat there?!

DOB: Unknown
Height: Um, five inches? Two feet? What are we, marine biologist cops?
Weight: We honestly have no idea.
Eyes: Do these things even have eyes?


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Get it? Cause they don't know!

The sad part is that stingrays aren't dangerous. There have been maybe a dozen stingray deaths in the past 10-20 years. Now they are finding heaps of dead stingrays along the coast of Australia with their barbs cut off. That is just stupid.
