It's a cruddy situation all around, but we'd like to give a small protip to young Jake: If someone starts sending you pictures of half-naked ladies, keep that to yourself.

Oh he's promoting Wet? I never even knew what the links were, I just assumed general penis enlargement-type spam.
That won't keep me from trying the game, though. Honestly, it's bound to be overlooked as it is. I can't blame them for trying to get more publicity as I'm sure they spent way too much money getting Eliza Dushku to crap out the voice for the main character when any random VA could do it just as well.

My old roommate was a big fan of Maxim, and always left a huge stack of them in the bathroom
It's gotta be the stupidest f-ing magazine I've ever "read", if you can call sifting through page after page of ads trying to find an article "reading"
You'll have upwards of 5 pages of ads for each page of article, and most of the articles are just thinly-veiled advertisements themselves
Terrible, terrible magazine

Man, if you think that's bad, you should try wading through Cosmopolitan. There's like 18 ads before you even get to the contents page, not to mention how ridiculously sexist the whole thing is.

One jerk does not a campaign make. It's quite possible that Sting is simply some kind of crazed fan.

Wrong. Playboy does good journalism, on top of having pictures of naked ladies. Maxim is just trash, on top of not actually showing anything.
Check it, and try informing yourselves before spouting off on shit you know nothing about.

Look at this guy defending his precious Playboy, and in a time when magazines are a dying medium.

Maxim has the better content?! Maxim seems like it's written by 13-year-olds who just passed English class.

As a 12 year old I didn't even see my mail until my parents looked at it. I understand why she's pissed, I was a bit surprised myself, but next time just get rid of it before your 12 year old sees it...

@Sly
I actually find that if you encounter a problem with a business and report it to your local news station, the problem gets solved fairly quickly. Where I live in NC, we have a feature on the news called Action 9 where you can report businesses ripping you off, over-billed, misled, etc... and the station contacts the company resulting in getting the problem solved most of the time. It's really great if you're getting a bad deal from a business.
I'm not saying that I think the mom is right or wrong, but I do think reporting your displeasure to news stations about businesses practices can often times lead to resolving your problems.

Heh, I remember when I got an issue of EGM that had a tutorial on how to turn an Atari 2600 controller into a *cough* "Adult toy" *cough* and my mother was not exactly pleased. That was, shall I say, titillating reading?

psh, most 12 year olds have seen much more. it's amazing how pussified the world has become. i dare anyone to go to a police officer and say "fuck" 5 times. it's a WORD, does it really mean ANYTHING? and why is nudity so bad? it's NATURAL! showing killing is fine, but not a tit? we really need to reconsider some of our ideals...

nutman, are you talking to me? i don't think i'm 'enlightening' anyone. i just think it's stupid that everyone cares so much about meaningless words and nudity, even though much worse things are accepted as fine. see how you called me a douchebag? i don't care, you can call me whatever you want. i'm cool with it. you know why? because we're both faceless posters on the internet. what we say doesn't matter at all in the grand scheme of things, because frankly, no one truly gives a damn.

Fuck - Noun - From the German "Ficken" or "to Fuck" or, less to the point, to "strike"
Actually, that is but one answer, for no one knows for sure where the word originated
