REMEMBER 1955 ?

REMEMBER 1955 ?

If they raise the minimum wage to $1.00,

nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store.

When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 25 cents a gallon.

Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage.

I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more. Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying DAMN in GONE WITH THE WIND, it seems every new movie has either HELL or DAMN in it.

I read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas.

Did you see where some baseball player
just signed a contract for $50,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday they'll be making more than the President.

I never thought I'd see the day all our
kitchen appliances would be electric. They're even making electric
typewriters now.

It's too bad things are so tough nowadays. I see where a few married women are having to work to make ends meet.

It won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire someone to watch their kids so they can both work.

I'm afraid the Volkswagen car is going to
open the door to a whole lot of foreign business.

Thank goodness I won't live to see the day when the

government takes half our income in taxes.  I sometimes wonder

if we are electing the best people to government.

The fast food restaurant is convenient for a quick meal,
but I seriously doubt they will ever catch on.

There is no sense going on short trips anymore for a weekend.
It costs nearly $2.00 a night to stay in a hotel.

No one can afford to be sick anymore.
At $15.00 a day in the hospital, it's too rich for my blood.

If they think I'll pay 30 cents for a haircut, Forget it.

Oops

I told her that she had 3 nice kids and she got upset!

Mad Magazine’s 10 Best (and 3 Worst) TV Show Parodies

Until reading about how “Breaking Bad” is lampooned in this month’s issue, I hadn’t thought about Mad Magazine in years. Actually, no, that’s not totally true; I did recently see “The Simpsons” episode where one of the publication’s writers proudly exclaims, “Why don’t we call it Everybody Hates Raymond?” To which another one responds, “Well, we stayed up all night, but it was worth it.”
That, right there, is Mad’s humor in a nutshell: pun-based, often using lots of funny sounding words (“blech” is a favorite), with a target audience of 12 year old boys. They also LOVE bad parodies. I believe that that the Mad writers know how (intentionally) lame their spoofs are, so they run with it, which would explain the woefully inaccurate “Fading Bad” instead of “Breaking Bad.” I hope. Either that, or it’s just really, really terrible
I looked back through the magazine’s long, storied history (via Doug Gilford’s amazing website) and found 10 of their better TV show cover parodies, as well as three of the worst. So, here’s to you Mad, the nation’s largest mental-illness-themed humor magazine that everyone forgot still existed.






I have been looking to brush up on caning and condoms facts…


It’s obvious, sure, but they couldn’t NOT do it, either.



Their best work.

And now the worst…

“They called me Smellson…”

Was “My Name is Earl” ever enough of a Thing to warrant a cover?

This doesn’t make me want to buy the magazine so much as it makes me want to vomit.
