Oh yeah man, definitely. Have you ever actually bought one before? I may do it one day just for a laugh.. but some of the headlines look really interesting. I'd love to pick up and read it without feeling embarrassed though, lol.
I buy them once in awhile. They crack me up. My boy friend bought one with a pic of a cute kitten being strapped down while a persons hand holds up a needle with lethal injection. "It says Kitten guilty of murder! Sign the petition inside or fluffy dies." 
He framed it and hung it on the wall.

I love it, some of the stories crack me up. Every once in a while they will have a story that will make you stop and think though.
I used to buy them in college to read during my breaks... They were absolutely hilarious! There is one thing that always kind of frightened me to imagine though, does anybody actually believe that stuff?
I have to go now, and make sure Bat Boy hasn't escaped from his cage again.

Haha... When I was 11 my uncle was in the hospital, and that was the only nearby reading material. There was an article about a boy who held in a sneeze to the point that his eyes shot out of their sockets. It scared the crap out of me back then...
I have a huge stack dating from '93-'99.
Those papers are quite entertaining! Personally, I love them! Just so you know, there is a "best of" book of WWN at Barnes and Noble. Yes, I spend a good amount of time reading it!

I now know what I want for Christmas.
I remember one that had a fake disease called "Anime-nia". I nearly died laughing at that... Especially with my hatred of anime...

Yeah it is a funny rag for sure...
Anyone remember 'Batboy'? The Batboy articles were always amusing. He was even featured on WWN short lived tv series.
