So Who Remembers "Mad Magazine"???
 
I know they still print it but its not the same today as when us 40 somethings were reading it as children.....society was just different then! Do you older guys remember reading Mad Magazine as kids??? "Spy vs. Spy", all the great spoofs of the classic movies of the day......and my favorites were all of the....."The Lighter Side Of......." pieces!! My older brother had a stack of Mad's that I spent hours and hours reading not to mention the subscriptions I had for years! Remember the "Mad" books???? I still got some of them...classics! Long live Alfred E. Newman!!! "What.....Me Worry?":jump:

I used to love the James Bond spoofs...The Spy Who Shoved Me?

Great stuff.

You've never heard of The Onion? WTF???

College rag that went online and is funny as hell. Ok, so they got overexposed but nobody's perfect.
