Out of curiosity, which cover did you get? They seem to have so many these days.

I am guessing that there are three covers, the past, the present, and the future?
And I am telling you, I put this thing in my bathroom for later reading, (as I do every issue) and my bathrooom smells incredible. So many perfume ads in there.......
And, not surprisingly, my favorite swimsuit, and the only one I can see anyone I know wearing ever, is the tie dye suit on page 164.

(38,100 posts)with pictures. In GD. Definitely a good thing you missed it.
It is the jerk-off issue (the bathroom reference above) of Sports Illustrated. Women wearing next to nothing in poses to suggest their only purpose in life is to sexually serve whoever is holding the magazine.
The OP is poking a stick in the eye of the many who objected to the objectification of women it represents (generally) and the propriety of posting it (with as many pictures as the poster who started the thread could grab) in GD a few days ago. Followed (or preceded by - I've lost track) the Kate Upton breasts in zero gravity thread - which Skinner locked as not within the SOP. After juries declined to hide either of them.

Really lame attempt at flamebait in the OP and here. Do we really need to know what his bathroom smells like and that he keeps his SI issues there.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Sat Feb 22, 2014, 10:05 AM, and the Jury voted 3-3 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Definitely flamebait, but I am of the school of thought that believes we should never prohibit a fool from showing his assets.
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Since the jury failed to hide the whole damn thread, trash it, this one post isn't the problem.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: more flamebait
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
