VIZ

Post by PaulinLondon »

I used to love reading Viz. It gave me a good old laugh every time but I think it has lost a bit of that "quality" factor in recent years.

I am sure many of you will remember the very funny characters and for me, I always looked forward to reading the various scenarios and adventures of Roger Mellie, Fucker Knuckles and Jump Jet Fanny.

The Letters page was at times hilarious. One of the letters to the Viz Editor went along the lines of :

"Dear Sir,

I am perplexed and at times angry as to how much attention human beings give to keeping themselves clean. They appear to spend hours in the bath or shower and spend forever in the bathroom attempting to make themselves look nice or smell fresh. They think they are so special and so smart.

Well, let me tell you something. I can sit on the floor and in one second, lift my leg in the air and lick my own arse gleaming clean in no time at all.

Kind regards.

Tiddles the cat".


And this :


"Sir,

These do-gooders are now telling us we shouldn't hunt elephants. Perhaps they'd like to explain where precisely we're going to get our ivory from?

Yours,

Matthew
Rotherham".


Or,


"Sir,

It's all very well Meg Ryan getting her kit off for her new film, but why wasn't she doing it twenty years ago before her puppies hit the pan?

Regards.

Luke
South Yorkshire".


And finally,


"Sir,

Hats off to the American police. They arrive at Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch to arrest him a mere six months after he admits climbing into bed with young boys on worldwide TV. Perhaps they should get some faster cars.

Lawrence
County Durham".

:P

Yeah me too!

Johnny Fartpants, Biffa Bacon, Spoilt Kid and Roger Mellie The Man On The Tele were all classics.

Do you also remember Rude Kid?

'Come to the shops dear'

'Fuck Off!'

Classic :lol: :lol:

Remember enjoying Viz for a short while, but found that it became very predictable and boring after a while.

From the "Top Tips" section :

Weight watchers. Avoid that devilish temptation to nibble at the chocolate bar in the cupboard or fridge by not buying the fucking thing in the first place, you fat bastards.


HGV drivers. When climbing a long hill at 20 mph, the lane to drive in is the LEFT fucking one.

PEOPLE whose surname is Toblerone should always take along an empty 'Toblerone' chocolate box when attending interviews for office jobs. This would save your potential employer the expense of having to make a name plaque for your desk, and therefore increase your chances of getting the job.

ANNOY and frustrate SpecSavers staff by wandering up to their counter, squinting your eyes whilst looking up at the price board, and when they ask if they can help you, saying "Big Mac Meal, please."

Drivers, why spend a fortune on personalised number plates, simply change your name to your registration plate through Deed Poll.

BOMB disposal experts' wives. Keep hubby on his toes by packing his lunchbox with plasticine and an old alarm clock.
