Vice magazine turns 15 years old
VICE magazine, which is still not only fully independent but is also flourishing while the dinosaurs that surround us slowly suffocate in the tar pits of their financial ruin, is turning 15 this month.
As of this day in the evolution of society and culture, VICE has 30 Foreign Offices; Thai, Chinese, and Colombian bureaus in the works; 2,500 contributors worldwide, and 4 million viewers a month on VBS.TV. It also now generally manages to poop and pee without the aid of diapers, but instead in the toilet like big boys and girls.
Therefore, henceforth and forthwith and so on, they are pleased to announce the publication of their 15-Year Anniversary Issue.
And what a doozy it is! While rummaging through the office basement, the Vice editorial staff stumbled on an entire previously unpublished number from 1994. Not only did this allow them to take a trip down memory lane, which is lined with poppies in bloom and bracketed by rainbow archways, but it also let them say "Fuggit" and take the month off and just put out this old behemoth.
The 1994 Issue is a 178-page treasure trove that includes everything anyone should have cared about back then. And let's just say there are about a hundred million stories: The end of Riot Grrrl! The boring new gays! The internet! Breakout CK One model Jenny Shimizu! And so much more…
