This doesn't really deserve a new thread, so I'm posdting it on here. Sorry (in a kind of I'm not really sorry or I wouldn't be fucking doing it but, you know, none of you know *exactly* where I live, the copious clues could only lead you to the general area andfrankly I'll take that chance type way. Anyway)
Anyway. OrganicLife. Possibly the cuntiest magazine on the plan et. Certainly the cuntiest one I've seen since I stopped buying 'Fannys Forever!'.
As I may have said on previous threads, Catalogue and I are tedious old hippy twats. We don't run a car, have four different bins to pre-sort recycling, use enviromentally freindly cleaning products, buy most of our food locally blah blash blah knit our own yoghurt etc. As a result we've been doing the organic thing since it was generally regarded as a scam to get people to pay more money for wormy carrots.
We've loved the fact that it's now mainstream, as it means our diet is now capable of more flexibility and it's cheaper. So when I saw OrganicLife in the shops I thought 'ooh, that might potentially be interesting and useful'.
Is it fuckery. The magazine's tagline is 'helping you make a difference'.
Which I'm assuming is a typo for 'helping you to pat yourself on the back for doing such a good job in living your life that much better than everyone else'.
It's a fucking train crash of middle class sanctimoney and lifestyle wank. Everyone featured has at least 4 children, and one of them is ALWAYS called fucking Molly.
The 'what's on' page features 'national storytelling week'. Oh fuck off.
I'm really quite cross.

Also, they LIE. 'organic shjop only 41p more expensive' Yes. If your normal shoping i sWaitrose and your orgainc is tesco and ASDA like on your list. Oh, and it's all fucking jam and other shit you wouldn't buy weekly rather than say 'tined tomatos or spuds. You fiucking liars.
