The Viz

[Paulie Dangerously]

I had a 4 hour train journey yesterday from Cardiff so went to the WH Smith for some reading material. I bought a Private Eye and the latest Viz

 

Fuck me the Viz is funny. I haven't read it in about 2 years and just thought I'd give it a go (if nothing else for the Profanosaurus) but I was pissing myself on the train

 

Some of the comic strips were brilliant. 24 the dog, Mr Logic, there was a detective story about how a young Elizabeth II found a porter who didn't bow to her mother. It was superb.

 

The letters were probably the funniest "Every time my clock reads 9:11 I get a chilly shiver down my spine. Not because I am remembering the 2001 atrocity but because I'm over 10 minutes late for work" had me in stitches. The 'Top Tips' too (also reader submitted) 'Fool your doctor into thinking you're going on an exciting, exotic holiday by booking in for malaria jabs'

 

I'm sure the prim and proper middle ages lady who was on the train from Abegaveny to Shrewsbury disapproved, her monocle practically fell into her martini. But I reckon I'll be buying this every month now!

My all time favourite:

 

BP. Turn a disaster into a salad dressing by pumping 5000 barrels of vinegar a day into the Gulf of Mexico.

"Every time my clock reads 9:11 I get a chilly shiver down my spine. Not because I am remembering the 2001 atrocity but because I'm over 10 minutes late for work"

 

I lol'd. Send it this way when you've finished mate.

Some Top Tips for ya's.

 

WORRIED that your teeth will be stained after a heavy night drinking red I wine? Drink a bottle of white wine before going to bed, to remove the stains.

 

MOTORISTS: When going through a speed camera, flash your lights twice quickly and watch the driver in front hit his brakes when he thinks he's been caught.

 

GAMBLERS: For a new gambling opportunity, try sending £50 to yourself by Royal Mail.

 

EMPLOYERS: Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the CVs into the bin.

 

MEN: When listening to your favourite CD, simply turn up the sound to the volume you desire - then turn it down three notches. This saves your wife having to do it.

 

DRIVERS: Avoid getting prosecuted for using your phone while driving. Simply pop your mobile inside a large shell and the police will think you are listening to the sea.

 

BANGING two pistachio nut shells together gives the' impression a very small horse' is approaching.

 

DON'T waste money on j expensive iPods. Simply think D of your favourite tune and I hum it. If you want to "switch I tracks", simply think of another song you like and hum that instead.

 

CINEMAGOERS: Have consideration for pirate DVD viewers by using the toilet before the film starts.

 

DRIVERS: If a car breaks down or stalls in front of you, beep your horn and wave your arms frantically. This should help the car start and send them on their way.

 

PREVENT burglars stealing everything in the house by moving everything into your bedroom when you go to bed. In the morning, move it all back again.

 

CAR THIEVES: Don't be discouraged if nothing is on view. The valuables may be hidden in the glove box or under a seat.

 

RAPPERS: Avoid having to say: "Know what I'm sayin'" all the time by actually speaking clearly in the first place.

 

SHOES last twice as long if only worn every other day.

 

SINGLE MEN: Convince people you have a girlfriend by standing outside Topshop with bags of shopping, looking at your watch and occasionally glancing inside.

 

EMPLOYEES: Only use the loo at work. Not only will you save money on toilet paper, but you'll also be getting paid.

 

SCROOGES: Save money at Christmas by returning last year's cards to the sender with the simple inscription "Same to you".

 

MICRA DRIVERS: Attach a lighted sparkler to the roof of your car before starting a long journey. You drive the thing like a sodding dodgem car anyway.

I have also been reading Viz since I was a kid every now and then. I love pretty much everything apart from the actual comic strips themselves, a couple are good like Mr Logic, Modern Parents and Roger Mellie, but on the whole they are a massive disappointment compared to the genius of Letterbocks, profanisaurus (or pro-fanny-sore-ass) and top tips. Ideally it should be read whilst slatering in the comfort of your home

''As i don't own a television of my own, i often watch my neighbour's one through his front window. Last night i knocked on his door to ask if he wouldnt mind switching over, as there was a documentary i wanted to watch on another channel. Imagine my dismay when he knocked four of my teeth out.''

Top tip for Security Guards:

 

Act suspiciously on the way to work so that you have something to watch on the CCTV later.

[Tyler Durden]

Used to love these, Aldrige Prior and Buster Gonad etc. Having got the annual last christmas I didnt think the characters were as good nowaday, maybe ill take another look

[dennis tooth]

Viz is legend. Keep them coming..........

 

 

 

Climb onto your neighbour's roof and dangle a fish on a bit of string in front of his windows. He'll think his house is underwater.

 

Girls. Too old to go on an 18 to 30 holiday? Simply get pissed, lie in a pit in your garden and shag every bloke who looks at you over the fence.

 

Buy a television set exactly like your neighbours. Then annoy them by standing outside their window and changing their channel using your identical remote control.

 

MOTORISTS. Pressing your 'fog lights' switch a second time after the fog has cleared will actually turn your fog lights off.

 

Cheer loudly at 8.00pm each Saturday to fool the neighbours into thinking you have won the Lottery.

 

Girls. Next time you feel like throwing a ball over-arm, don't, because you can't and it just looks silly. Just throw it girlie under-arm style, and no-one will laugh at you, or get hurt.

 

Don't buy expensive 'ribbed' condoms, just buy an ordinary one and slip a handful of frozen peas inside it before you put it on.

 

X-Files fans. Create the effect of being abducted by aliens by drinking two bottles of vodka. You'll invariably wake up in a strange place the following morning, having had your memory mysteriously 'erased'.

 

Minor skin grafts can be performed on pigs by covering any cuts and grazes with thin strips of bacon.

 

Save money on expensive personalised car number plates by simply changing your name to match your existing plate. - Mr. KVL 741Y,

 

Don't waste money buying expensive binoculars. Simply stand closer to the object you wish to view.

 

Avoid jet lag by simply taking an earlier flight, thus arriving fully refreshed and on time.

 

Pass yourself off as Welsh by putting coal dust behind your fingernails and talking gibberish all the time, stopping occasionally to sing loudly, or set fire to someone else's house.

 

Putting just the right amount of gin in your goldfish bowl makes the fishes' eyes bulge and cause them to swim in an amusing manner.

 

Save time when crossing a one-way street by only looking in the direction of oncoming traffic. - D. Rogers, Hemel Hempstead

 

When crossing a one-way street always look in BOTH directions in case a large blue furniture removal lorry is reversing the wrong way up the road. - D. Rogers, Hemel Hempstead General Infirmary

 

Thicken up runny low-fat yoghurt by stirring in a spoonful of lard.

 

Anorexics. When your knees become fatter than your legs, start eating cakes again.

 

A next door neighbour's car aerial, carefully folded, makes an ideal coat hanger in an emergency.

 

Hijackers. Avoid a long stressful siege and the risk of arrest, imprisonment or death by simply making sure you book a flight to your intended destination in the first place.

 

Deter goldfish from having sex by throwing a small bucket of air over any that you catch in the act.

 

An empty aluminium cigar tube filled with angry wasps makes an inexpensive vibrator. Sister S., Berwick

 

Olympic athletes. Disguise the fact that you've taken anabolic steroids by running a bit slower. - B. Johnson, Canada

 

Sweetcorn fans. Save money on loo paper by simply pouring the stuff straight down the pan.

 

Pretend you`re a giant panda by giving yourself two black eyes, eating only bamboo shoots and refusing to have sex with the missus.

 

Manchester United fans. Save money on expensive new kits by simply strapping a large fake penis to your forehead. It is now clear to all, as to your allegiance.

 

Manchester United fans. Avoid an asymetrical bulge in your right arm by masturbating furiously with your left arm too.

 

Avoid arguments with the missus about lifting the loo seat by simply pissing in the sink.

 

Weedy fellas. Develop a right forearm like Arnold Schwarzeneggar by buying one of those Cindy Crawford workout videos.

 

Smokers. Save on matches and lighters, by simply lighting your next fag from the butt of your last one.

 

Vegetarians coming to dinner? Simply serve them a nice bit of steak or veal. Since they`re always going on about how tofu, Quorn, meat substitute etc `tastes exactly like the real thing`, they won`t know any difference.

 

Invited by vegetarians for dinner? Point out that since you`d no doubt be made aware of their special dietary requirements, tell them about yours, and ask for a nice steak.

 

Spice up your sex life by trying a bit of `rodeo sex`. Take your missus from behind and, holding on tightly to her jugs, call her by the wrong name. See how long you can `stay mounted` for.

 

Drivers. Pressing the headlight switch for a second time dips the buggers.

 

HGV drivers. When climbing a long hill at 20 mph, the lane to drive in is the LEFT fucking one.

 

FOOL other drivers into thinking you have an expensive car phone by holding an old TV or video remote control up to your ear and occasionally swerving across the road and mounting the kerb.

 

DRILL a one inch diameter hole in your refrigerator door. This will allow you to check that the light goes off when the door is closed.

 

BOMB disposal experts' wives. Keep hubby on his toes by packing his lunchbox with plasticine and an old alarm clock.

 

SAVE electricity by turning off all the lights in your house and walking around wearing a miner's hat.

 

AVOID parking tickets by leaving your windscreen wipers turned to 'fast wipe' whenever you leave your car parked illegally.

 

HOUSEWIVES. I find the best way to get two bottles of washing-up liquid for the price of one is by putting one in your shopping trolley and the other in your coat pocket.

 

DON'T INVITE DRUG ADDICTS round for a meal on boxing day. They may find the offer of cold turkey embarrassing or offensive.

 

OLD telephone directories make ideal personal address books. Simply cross out the names and address of people you don't know.

 

WHEN reading a book try tearing out the pages as you read them. This saves the expense of buying a bookmark, and the pages can later be used for shopping lists.

 

A TEASPOON placed in a glass on the back seat of your car makes a handy audible gauge for road bump severity.

 

BUS DRIVERS. Pretend you're an airline pilot by wedging your accelerator pedal down with a heavy book, securing the steering wheel with some old rope, and then strolling back along the bus chatting casually to the passengers.

 

SAVE petrol by pushing your car to your destination. Invariably passers-by will think you've broken down and help.

 

LOSE weight quickly by eating raw pork or rancid tuna. I found that the subsequent food poisoning/diarrhea enabled me to lose 12 pounds in only 2 days.

 

WHEN throwing someone a sharp instrument such as a Stanley knife, or bread knife, always throw it blade first as they invariably tend to turn whilst in the air.

 

AVOID being wheel-clamped by jacking your car up, removing the wheels and locking them safely in the boot until you return.

 

SMELL gas? Locate the suspected leak by striking an ordinary match in every room in the house until a loud explosion reveals the source of the escaping gas.

 

TAXI drivers. Why not pop into the garage and ask them to fix your indicators lights for you so that other motorists know where the heck you're going.

 

PENSIONERS. Try sitting on a pile of encyclopedias next time you go for a drive in your car. That way you will be able to see out of the front window.

 

OLD contact lenses make ideal 'portholes' for small model boats.

 

INCREASE the life of your carpets by rolling them up and keeping them in the garage.

 

TAKE your dustbin to the supermarket with you so that you can see which items you have recently run out of.

 

MAKE shopkeepers feel like criminals and con men by carefully checking their change and holding bank notes up to the light before accepting them.

 

SAVE on charity donations by spending a pound on clothes at a charity shop, then selling them for 50p to another charity shop. This way you can give twice as much, at half the cost. I think.

 

NO TIME for a bath? Wrap yourself in masking tape and remove the dirt by simply peeling it off.

 

EXPENSIVE hair gels are a con. Marmalade is a much cheaper alternative, but beware of bees in the summer.

 

APPLY red nail varnish to your nails before clipping them. The red nails will be much easier to spot on your bathroom carpet. (Unless you have a red carpet, in which case a contrasting varnish should be selected).

 

PUTTING just the right amount of gin in your goldfish bowl makes the fishes' eyes bulge and causes them to swim in an amusing manner.

 

Weight watchers. Avoid that devilish temptation to nibble at the chocolate bar in the cupboard or fridge by not buying the fucking thing in the first place, you fat bastards.

 

Dyslexics. Try deliberately spelling words wrongly. This way at least you have a chance of spelling them correctly.

 

Bearded men can obtain the appearance of an upper class Arctic explorer by simply applying Tippex to their beards, painting their noses blue, and cutting off a couple of toes. It never fails to impress the girls.

 

Give up smoking by sticking one cigarette from each new pack up a fat friend's arse, filter first, then replacing it in the box. The possibility of putting that one in your mouth will put you off smoking any of them.

 

Pretend to be Welsh by putting coal dust behind your ears, talking gibberish and singing all the time.

 

If a small child is choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a jug of boiling water down its throat and hey presto! The blockage is almost instantly removed.

 

Avoid cutting yourself while clumsily slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.

 

Housewives: When nipping out to the shops, remember to carry a stiff broom in the boot of your car. Use it to sweep the broken glass to the side of the road every time you have a minor accident.

 

Make people think you have an expensive car phone by calling them, asking them to repeat everything they say and then hanging up half way through their reply.

 

Don't invite drug addicts round for a meal on boxing day. They may find the offer of cold turkey embarrassing or offensive.

 

Keep the seat next to you on the train vacant by smiling and nodding at people as they walk up the aisle.

 

Save on booze by drinking cold tea instead of whisky. The following morning you can create the effects of a hangover by drinking a thimble full of washing up liquid and banging your head repeatedly on the wall.

 

Make bathtimes as much fun for kiddies as a visit to the seaside by pouring a bucket of sand, a bag of salt and a dog turd into the bath.

 

Make guests believe your home might be bugged by running your hands under tables and inside lampshades, then turning the shower on every time you want to speak.

 

Increase blind people's electricity bills by switching all their lights on when their guide dog isn't looking.

 

Recreate the fun of a visit to a public swimming pool in your own home by filling the bath with cold water, adding two bottles of bleach, then urinating into it, before jumping in.

 

Make your girlfriend cry when you're having sex by phoning her up and telling her.

 

Girls. Too old to go on an 18 to 30 holiday? Simply get pissed, lie in a sand pit in your garden and shag every bloke who looks at you over the fence.

 

Bus drivers. Pretend you're an airline pilot by wedging your accelerator pedal down with a heavy book, securing the steering wheel with some old rope, and then strolling back along the bus chatting casually to the passengers.

 

International master criminals. Tell your guards to shoot James Bond in the head at the first opportunity. Under no circumstances give him a guided tour of your base, or leave him in the custody of attractive women in bikinis.

 

KING-sized Mars bars make ideal normal-sized Mars bars, for giants. NORMAL-sized Mars bars make ideal king-sized Mars bars for dwarfs, as well as fun-sized ones for giants.

 

FUN-sized Mars Bars make ideal normal sized Mars Bars for midgets.

 

PEOPLE whose surname is Toblerone should always take along an empty 'Toblerone' chocolate box when attending interviews for office jobs. This would save your potential employer the expense of having to make a name plaque for your desk, and therefore increase your chances of getting the job.

Fool people at the garden centre into thinking you have a garden by going to the garden centre.

[QOUTE]EMPLOYERS: Avoid hiring unlucky people by immediately tossing half the CVs into the bin.

 

My all-time favourite.

 

Been a fan since I was a nipper. Agree the cartoons aren't up to much these days but the letters, top tips, ect are brilliant. And the adverts....

 

[Guest davelfc]

Shoppers - nudging the person in front of you in the queue for the till continuously with your basket or trolly will ensure the line moves a lot quicker.

 

(just made that one up, but I actually use that line when it happens to me)

The news stories in Viz piss all over Private Eye or any other would-be satire. It takes a special kind of genius to come up with "Cabinet Minister Had Sex With Dolphin."

 

For legal reasons, we are unable to name the Cabinet minister involved. The Department of Health refused to comment.
