Open Letter

Dear Magazine Publishers,

I subscribe to exactly three magazines, by subscribe I mean that I paid for a subscription to your magazine where in you send me a flimsy book once a month or in the case of Make once a quarter. The magazine you send me is usually filled with a few things about one third is ads, about one third is writing I find interesting and about one third is stuff I could give a shit about, and about one third (I know, I know the math doesn't add up here but the last third isn't really part of the magazine so fuck off) is filled with little cards that fall out cause a general mess and make the magazines open to the same few pages every time and making thumbing through them impossible. I get it, you want people to subscribe to your magazine so that you will have a large reader base and you can sell ads, that makes sense, but for fuck's sake. I ALREADY have a subscription I payed my money to make your ad sales team happy so please, please, please, please don't fill MY magazine with these things. All of the magazines are tech magazines and if someone sees them and would like to subscribe I'll send them to your website, but until you stop doing this I'm declaring war! And I'm going to mail back all of those cards to you blank! Ha!

Sincerely,
DC Dan
