YOU CAN'T SELL CHERRY COMICS ON EBAY BUT YOU CAN SELL PLAYBOYS THAT DON'T HAVE NUDITY ON THE COVER.

 

I THINK THAT IS A LITTLE BIT MORE RIDICULOUS THAN BANNING TERMS ASSOCIATED WITH WWII, BUT I STILL EMPHASIZE WITH YOUR DELIMA.

 

CHERRY IS NOT PORN AND PLAYBOY IS. :(

Pretty sure you can sell Cherry comics in the adult section. That's probably where Playboys should be sold too.

 

But Cherry isn't porn! Even though graphic sex, sometimes with animals, is shown!!! And Playboy never shows anything that graphic, so it has to be porn!!!

 

PLAYBOY IS PORN & CHERRY ISN'T BECAUSE PLAYBOY SHOWS REAL WOMEN, AND IF I YELL IT LIKE THIS, IT HAS TO BE TRUE!

I like how you googled Cherry Poptart yesterday not knowing what it was and are now an expert on the topic.

I like how he thinks I never knew what Cherry Poptart was - I did an IMAGE SEARCH, not a web search, thinking maybe I could post some pics here proving or disproving either one of our points. I was right in my point that Cherry is graphic enough to be considered porn, and wrong thinking I could post pics of it here. I also never claimed to be an expert on anything. Lesson here pasta-boy: don't put words in other peoples mouths.

 

:thumbsup:

Does anyone else feel like Playboy is a joke these days though? It was that magazine that all pre pubescent boys fantasized about, but once hit 18 they realized how lame it was. Internet porn doesn't help.

 

Oh and Cherry is porn. It deserves to be sold in a different spot. I could only imagine someone making the mistake of thinking comics are for kids and buying for a child.

If there is actually a person on the planet paying money for a Playboy, have them PM me and i can send them some links that will keep them occupied for the next 17 years! :gossip:

I read Playboy for the articles.

 

See back in the day they had some superb literature in Playboy. That hasn't been true for a long time though. Heck, Ian Flemming wrote some of his early James Bond stories for Playboy. And I believe Edgar Rice Burrows got his start in Playboy. Even Ray Bradbury initially wrote Fahrenheit 451 for Playboy.

 

I don't think we are seeing that level of literature in the magazine anymore. I'd love for someone to prove me wrong though.

Agreed, but... :gossip:ERB was writing 40 years before Playboy got started.

Edgar Rice Burroughs died before the first issue of Playboy was published. I didn't think it was possible to type something that stupid, and yet, there it is.

Hmmm... I must be thinking of someone else. Thanks for the insult though!

 

All the others are true- That is why I wrote "I believe." Clearly I believed wrong.

That is true- look it up. Taught the book last year. It was written in vignettes and later collected.

 

Edit: Hmmm maybe he didn't "initially" write it for Playboy. I failed all those students... Looks like he edited it and serialized it. Then he edited the book again so there is a bunch of editions of the novel out there.

 

None the less, my initial point that Playboy does not have the same caliber of articles holds true.

In 1947, Bradbury wrote a short story titled "Bright Phoenix" (later revised for publication in a 1963 issue of The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction).[4] Bradbury expanded the basic premise of "Bright Phoenix" into The Fireman, a novella published in the February 1951 issue of Galaxy Science Fiction. First published in 1953 by Ballantine Books, Fahrenheit 451 is twice as long as "The Fireman". A few months later, the novel was serialized in the March, April, and May 1954 issues of Playboy.[5] Bradbury wrote the entire novel in the basement of UCLA's Powell Library on a pay typewriter that he rented for a fee of ten cents per half an hour.[6]

 

from wiki. so Playboy wasn't the first printing.
