I had no idea this was still going strong. The last time I saw it on sale was about fifteen years ago. An ad popped up offering a Christmas subscription to it. Is Viz still as funny as it used to be? If it's next to the bongo mags then maybe that's why I'm missing it. Sid the Sexist was the funniest character in this great comic IMO.

I did manage to buy Roger's profanisaurus a couple of years ago which is extremely rude. :)

It’s not as ‘good’ as it used to be, but that was one of the running jokes in Viz 20 years ago. Worth a quick read of a current one before you commit to a subscription.

Love Viz, especially the ads.
I saw a bloke in his front garden in Dagenham a while back, spitting image of Cockney Wankah, bald, sunglasses, pot belly, tight fitting polyester roll neck top with the chain and everything, still have a giggle about it today.

I still buy it once a year at Gatwick prior to going on holibobs, along with a bumper bag of Salt & Vinegar Discos - it’s the law

Dear Viz. I don't seem to be able to drink enough beer. No matter how much I drink in the evening, when I wake up next morning, I'm still thirsty. :shrug:

I bought it for the first time in about ten years recently and thought it was a bit weak compared to earlier years, but as mentioned elsewhere, that was always the joke.

I’d agree. I was an avid reader of it maybe 15 years ago (poss more), very occasionally pick one up now and it’s alright, but doesn’t feel quite the same. Still love the letters page though.

The profanasaurus is a fixture in my loo, every now and then I’ll browse through it and have a good chuckle.

Top Tips is like a guide to life. Not sure it will gain the BG royal seal of approval though.

DRIVERS: Avoid getting prosecuted for using your phone while driving. Simply pop your mobile inside a large shell and the police will think you are listening to the sea.

BANGING two pistachio nut shells together gives the' impression a very small horse' is approaching.

You could always buy the 'annual', which is out each Christmas. It's a compilation of the magazines issued that year.

Also an avid reader in my younger days and occasionally pick one up now.

Morning all time favourite is an early Roger Mellie. On discussing the name of a new current affairs show, Roger was surprised that Tom didn’t like “Panor -f**king- Rama”

“Ok Tom, let’s keep the name simple. How about c**t?”

Liam Gallagher, when singing lower the microphone a bit so that it's level with your mouth. This will reduce unnecessary neck strain.
How you could stop being a **** is beyond me though I'm afraid.
