Sucks to see any printed publication go away. I'm partly to blame, I'm sure - my subscription just ran out and I didn't re-up because the magazine became much, much more about iPhone and iPad in recent years.

Maybe if I had either of those devices I might have found more interesting content. (It's not that I don't want them - just can't afford them!)

It amazes me to see people in the grocery store with their food stamp EBT card, talking on an iPhone. Naw, take that back, stuff like that doesn't amaze me anymore, I've seen it too much.

I saw a homeless guy wearing Beats earphones the other day.

Yup, the latest and greatest iPhone too. Driving a 2 year old car while I'm on a 4 year old phone, no debt to speak of, driving a 14 year old car and living within my means. They need help alright but it shouldn't be coming from the taxpayers. You need help, a job? Fine we will help you but you have to go and clean up a park, roadside or whatever. You shouldn't be leeching off the government playing xbox all day while I'm out working and paying taxes to support you.

I saw Crazy Eyes walk past my shop the other day. She glared at me too. I was terrified.

I agree with Dan. It's all his fault.
