The Food Issue

Vice Mail

I’ve been saying for years that you assholes just sit around your house and pull your stories from the internet—thanks for getting careless and proving me fucking right.

Let’s get this out of the way right now. The last issue, known to you as the Verdad Issue, was… hmm, about 95 percent total and utter fucking bullshit that we pulled out of our asses. Lies, plain and simple. Above, you can see the two main pages of our mock-up for that issue. That’s where all the features usually live. For your easy reference, we’ve made every page that contained a lie pink and the true pages gray. We wanted to point this out mainly because we don’t want you to think that we secretly hate every band that we gave a 10 and love all the losers we slammed. So there you go—the whole back of the book, columns and reviews, is true. The rest of it? The Lies Issue: A tangled web of deceit.
