I just shredded Ann the Man
I just received this week's issue of Time and immediately ripped off the cover and sent it through the crosscut shredder. Whew. Get that vermin out of my house!

What were the editors of Time thinking? Were they just trying to get a response? I was thinking of writing to them of my utter disgust but realized that was inadvertently endorsing their choice -- the more responses, good or bad, the better.

:puke:

1. I wish I still had a subscription so I could cancel it.

2. Everyone should cancel their subscriptions. Seriously.
Read it at the dentist's office if you must have your fix.

3. How about not renewing your subscription?
That's not a desired response. I won't even ask why you subscribed in the first place.

You should of dropped it in the bowl after shredding it and sh!t on it.

4. here's what I'd do...
Shred the article as well, stuff the shredded article and cover into an envelope, and send it back. Hell, we should ALL do this (except I refuse to buy the issue).

7. Mailing Annthrax is against the law.
Report Time to the Homeland Security Police!

Shredding her may be construed as weaponizing a toxic agent, too.

9. This works well with Credit card offers as well...
But it helps to add a rock to the envelope so that they can pay for the bill that they foisted upon us.

5. In a single sentence,
what is the cover story?

I've been hearing all about this, but I don't understand how this woman got on the cover of Time Magazine.

Do they simply see her as being representative of the evils of Republican insanity?

6. I would return to sender with a note explaining why.
Lucky me though...I cancelled my subscription years ago.

11. Newsweek
I recommend Newsweek. Time, as the ultimate embarrasment, puts Bush on it's cover as Man of the Year. Now it's Coulter... Newsweek put Barak Obama on it's cover not long ago. A former U of Chicago Law professor so far above Bush & Coulter on an intellectual level it's a wonder they inhabit the same planet.

14. Randi spent a couple hours
just ripping Time and Ann to shreds. It was a joy to behold.
