Zoo Magazine In Being-Tools “Shock”

Zoo Magazine.jpgWell, this is surprising news for a Monday! After pulling such witty publicity stunts as offering a reader a boob job and searching for the hottest feminist, Zoo Weekly have come up with another hilarious competition: win a divorce!

That’s right, as their website reads, “Tired of being shackled to the woman of your nightmares? Want to break free from the rut of married life? Then enter our Win a Divorce Competition!”

Here’s what editor Paul Merrill says:

“When a marriage fails it’s always sad but what’s even sadder is being stuck under the same roof as someone who’s shagged your best mate or something.

“This is hopefully going to encourage people to see the error of their ways and get out rather than put up with 40 years of misery.”

Asked if the competition could be viewed as encouraging divorce, Merrill said: “You’d have to be pretty nutty to enter a competition to win a divorce if you’re happily married.”

Oh, we get it – it’s a humanitarian effort! They’re trying to help these guys. How sensitive of them!

Call us cynics, but we’d hazard a guess that not only is a large slice of the Zoo readership probably unmarried, we suspect some of them may actually have never felt the touch of a female human!

    God, Zoo is nothing but the boob-obsessed dribblings of a bunch of boys who never quite worked through their Oedipal complexes. Okay, we get it, you have confusing feelings towards your mother. We know you’re a bit frightened of what women have between their legs. Why must you inflict your Freudian neuroses on the magazine buying public??

    Sigh.
