We take a look back at some of the more amusing things
Jessica Wilson has said and totally remove them from their
original context — enjoy!
Septum piercings, or “bullrings”, bridge the gap between human
and beast, creating a complex societal message on the ideas of
socialism, capitalism, and of course, veganism. A widely detested
part of the face, the nose is a perfect place to express your sociopolitical
agenda, as well as scaring off basic people.

If you’re like me, you never fuck up. You are a celestial being who
bathes in the beauty of facial symmetry and the ability to balance
life, work, and study. Your butt is also very nice (do recommend),
but that’s far from the point.

It has come to my attention that the common white boy is evolving
into a longboarding, rap loving, douche at a pace comparable to
the recent measles outbreak.
– Issue 6
More fun that you can shake a stick at, but not quite as fun as
a bag of sand. The Common White Girl covers her frame with
a plain top, either leggings or skinny jeans, and a puffer jacket.
She completes the look by decking her face out with too-thick
foundation, cleverly applied to hide her burnt skin from her
previous occupation as a receptionist for the fiery depths of Hell.

Smoking is, quite literally, hot — and I’m not talking about the
drugs. This crash diet is about no longer consuming anything
that isn’t smoked — so you can no longer look like a joke! (Ha!
It almost rhymes.) Only eating smoked food will largely hinder
your consumption options. If you get too hungry, I recommend
consuming smoked salt, it’s low calorie and will help you drink
your recommended two litres of water per day.

The first step to having a delicious lingerie collection is letting
down your preconceived notions of what is “slutty” and what
is appropriate. Nothing is slutty, unless you want it to be, and
nothing is inappropriate for you.
– Issue 16
If you’re wanting to make it big by shooting with a top
photographer, you’re going to have to show a little nipple.

Ahhh… New York Fashion Week. Not my favourite week of the
year, but not my least favourite either.
