Playboy magazine to stop publishing pictures of naked women

"The US issue of Playboy is no longer profitable, but exists as a marketing tool for the international editions and the Playboy licensing business, which is profitable. The magazine’s circulation has dropped from 5.6m in 1975 to about 800,000 now..."

I find this a little hard to believe. Is it possible this story is just bullshit? Here lately, Playboy has finally gotten with the times and gotten off their high-horses about not showing semi-gratuitous pussy shots, at least with their "cybergirls", I dunno about their Playmates of the Month featured in the magazine, but maybe those too. I dunno, because... I DON'T FUCKING BUY THE MAGAZINE. And not because they traditionally don't show pussy shots, but because I DO NOT read it for the articles. Have you ever actually tried reading the articles? Who the fuck do they write that shit for? The common guy who might buy the magazine doesn't really give a shit about most of what they write about. It's shit written for well-to-do overpaid white guys and them only. That's the image they've been tailoring their shit to for 60 years, and they aren't interested in Playboy anymore. It's pretentious fucking garbage. And the guys who still maybe ARE buying Playboy, they don't give a shit about that pretentious rich-guy posturing bullshit, they just wanna see some hot babes butt naked. So if they wanna drive themselves completely out of business, they'll go ahead and do away with the one thing that keeps their magazine still selling which is the 3 to 5% nudie picture content per magazine.

Fact of the matter is... people don't buy paper magazines anymore. That's why Playboy has so many fucking "cybergirls" to begin with. If they wanna sell more, they're gonna have to offer what guys wanna buy. And the porn loving male consumer these days wants MORE nudity, MORE shit to beat their meat to, not LESS. They don't give a damn about reading some yuppie-hipster review of a $9000 stereo system, or an interview about what some jerkoff like Eric Bogosian thinks about current politics.

Fuck Hugh Hefner's empire. He's had it too good for too long. At first he was doing good things to make America less of a sexually and morally repressed society. But times have changed, and his magazine has still kinda remained the same shit that it was 30 years ago. I wanna see these Playmate whores with a dick up their asses like porn stars. Let's be honest, they're fucking whores. Posing for Playboy doesn't make you some classy elite celebrity, it just means you get paid a little more than the ones who do it in Hustler and Swank, and Hefner has better Hollywood connections than Larry Flynt to advance your career. A whore is a whore is a whore.

Growing up, we'd steal dad's older issues and hide in the basement reading the articles.

A corprorate exec, he had a membership and would get a free issue at the club after a dinner there. I know he did Chicago and New York a couple of times. After I turned 18 we did Lake Geneva a couple of times.

I worked in Burlington Wisconsin for a few years and the factory was full of women. I was 21-24 and most-eligible bachelor. Several moms were always lobbying me to date their daughters. Knowing their mothers first, I had a view of their futures and that vision didn't appeal. The cutest girl in the place was the gal who cleaned the lunch/break area three times a day. Ida was her name. Rumor was she had a 6 foot, 230 pound boyfriend but she seemed pretty shy around me. I never did try to date her, even in 1978 when it was still ok to fish in the company pond.

I got married in 1979 and as a treat my dad took us all to the Playboy Club in Lake Geneva as a last hurrah before they closed it and sold it off. He wanted my new bride to experience it too since she had no clue. Sure enough, who do you suppose is our bunny waitress but Ida, saying hi to me by name. (Mom's eyes grew big at that one.)

Shit! She was damned perfect in that bunny uniform. Table wiper and mop pusher in a lunch room by day, Playboy bunny by night. I'll always regret not dating her back then. But then, who knows how that might have gone.

Imagine if you could go back to 1985 and tell everyone about the shit that's gone on in politics.

---------------------------------

Dear people from 1985, this is gonna blow your fucking mind, but hear me out:

Very soon, President Reagan will sell weapons to Iranians even though everyone considers them terrorists.

Also, in a very much related "thing", one of President Reagans favorite generals will facilitate South American drug lords in order to fund rebels in Nicaragua.

Also, in YET ANOTHER very much related thing, Reagan will declare a "War on Drugs" to combat how cocaine is flooding into the US on an insane scale... even though he's kinda in a roundabout way the whole reason WHY there's so much of it.

People will know all of this, and still won't try to impeach him.

After his VP gets elected and fucks everyone with tax increases and a half assed attempt at fighting the dictator of Iraq, people will finally be sick of Republicans and vote for a Democrat. Under this democrat, everyone will have jobs and make lots of money, but he'll get his dick sucked by an intern and everyone will fly into a rage demanding his immediate impeachment. Because dick sucking is way worse than backing coke kings and selling weapons to Iran... apparently.

The next president will be the son of the previous Republican president. Under him, middle eastern terrorists will hijack commercial airliners and crash them into buildings in New York and Washington DC. And then he'll get elected for a SECOND TERM, during which the jobless rate will climb to numbers not seen since the Great Depression in the early 30's.

And I know this is starting to sound like a weird soap opera story, but the previous Democrat presidents fucking WIFE will become the Sec of State. During her time in office, terrorists will organize an attack on the American Embassy in Libya, and she'll blame it on a poorly made poorly dubbed pointless youtube video.

Psst, the President she serves under will be black.

Enjoy the future, assholes!

It can be done.

Use a freeware program like audacity to capture the audio and export to .wav

I used to have to use a cable from my headphone jack to my line in, but figured out now you can just select "windows WASAPI" as your input and it will snag the audio from there. Works pretty good for capturing a sound clip from a youtube vid.

Ive seen tutorials out there for converting to a couple different formats for ringtones

I remember this happening in GA near where my dad's family is from. The results were worse, in that wreck the deer took the driver into the backseat with them and the car crashed and the person and the deer were dead at the scene
