Vice Media

Not a very good nightclub. No music. People just sitting around typing on laptops.
I approached some people and tried to dance with them, and they said «what are you doing here» and «please leave»
LAME.

I am a huge fan of the HBO show Vice, as well as the magazine, so I was excited to visit their headquarters and see where the magic happens. I would have loved a tour but it wasn’t really conducive to that. It was a regular office and it didn’t seem welcoming to visitors. Keep doing what you’re doing, Vice! I love ya, anyway!

Bride kidnapping in Kyrgyzstan? Don’t!!!

I heard of OPEN BAR but OPEN BAR the entire night?
WTF!!!
Totally insane that Vice Magazine decided to throw out $ 250K to celebrate their 15^th Year Anniversary by hosting a large unmarked warehouse party in Brooklyn this year.
Thanks to E for taking one for the team and getting us VIPS to this event.
This massive party reminded me a of a rave — totally dark, can’t see crap in here. Loud music just pumping in your ears and people dancing without a care in the world.
I wish this place had real restrooms, since I don’t do Port-​a-​Potties especially when it’s not as clean as Water Taxi beach.
ECK!
Yes, 5 stars still only because totally amazing that VICE would be so generous to do this for people.
T, E, Z and me — we ended up staying here for a good while and left to another bash.

Fact — There’s a new movement of Japanese homeless who stay in Internet Café’s ²⁴⁄₇ for $ 15 a night.
Fact — There’s a special home in Copenhagen where people literally drink themselves to death.
Fact — There’s a hallucinatory mushroom shaped like a penis that will seriously fuck you up once ingested.
How does one get to learn such bizarre tales of real life? By reading through the pages of Vice Magazine of course. with it’s odd stories, humorous photo essays, and off kilter reviews that often times have nothing to do with the subject matter, it’s a magazine that’s so provocatively interesting that it’s pure addiction. Not too shabby for a free publication!
Going on their web page uncovers even more stories of weird truth, random photos, crazy comics, and a hilarious blog (they even admit that they hired a grifter). And all of it are just more reasons why Vice indeed rules!

Old Vice (before they got taken over by the corporate world and started pairing with the likes of MTV, when they where still available free in about 20 locations in the city, when they where still edgy and raw, when they included stickers and had the gross-​jar) 5 stars
New Vice (with their maxim-​but-​with-​naughty-​words style and overblown merchandise, annoying ad-​filled site etc) 2 stars
The Dos and Don’ts, Skinema, Photo issue & Tidbits still make it pretty great 2 stars

2 stars for the magazine
I went on their website and emailed Lauren about the costs for stocking my work place lobby with Vice magazine. She never responded… twice now. I will up my rating if and when I do receive a response.

Love it. Some of their advice is horribly outdated, and the Dos and Don’ts seem to have become the Hot Girls and Dorky Guys, but whatever. Vice is still more relevant than 99% of the magazines in New York put together. Yes, it’s aimed at hipsters. Yes, Gavin McInnes is a little old to be telling people what’s cool. But who cares? The fact is they’re right most of the time.
Also,
has some of the most interesting programming I’ve ever seen. Their world news shows are particularly awesome.
Five stars until they sell out and get all preachy and pompous like the Voice and TONY.

nothing, no one, no how is fucking with vice publications.
what do you want to know about? what do you want to see? is there anything you wish you had access to but don’t think anyone has tapped into it? okay, now smack yourself and poor some water on your face. i am about to tell you the only thing you need to know about before you turn 40yrs. old
there is a publication magazine out called vice. if you are someone who feels that it’s too late to be hip and you desperatey have been wanting to be down for so long, here is your chance. if you’re a gangester there is stuff for you. if you’re gay there is stuff for you. if you are a pervert there is stuff for you. if you like music there is stuff for you. if you would like to to know what to and what not to wear there is stuff for you. if you would like to know what’s going on in the world there is stuff for you. if you need to blog there is stuff for you. all you need to do is go to
note to vice: i would like to work for you. yes, i can relocate.

Vice is a nice free publication that some places in Atlanta will actually try to charge you for (at Criminal Records they sometimes put $ 3 price tags on this and try to make people who don’t look hip enough pay it: but just walk out, they can’t stop you).
There’s a lot to be entertained by here: as Edward said the Do’s and Dont’s are pretty much worth reading everytime. They take pictures of the most clueless and/​or scary people from around different cities and put smartass captions on them that are often spit your coffee funny.
Their record reviews are also pretty entertaining: they tell it like it is in no plain english. I remember one review that said something like: «I take a shit on this record.» And such.
The editorials and articles couldn’t get more hipster: they love to talk about coke and parties and strippers and other nonsense. But if you can get past that, this is worth thumbing through. But probably don’t let your kids get a hold of it unless you want them to turn into skaters.

THIS MAGAZINE RULES!
The Dos & Don’ts column is always a source of cheap and easy laughter (often at the expense of the unknowing — always a plus!); Vice Records is partly responsible for the success of Death From Above 1979, having released their raw power «Romantic Rights.»
The content is all hipster and totally on point.
Read this and you’ll know what I’m taking about.

This magazine could get this rating based on the «Do’s and Don’t’s» alone. I know that’s cliched, especially coming from a Brooklyn guy who reviews stuff on the internet, but it really is fun.

Vice Magazine… I like it… in fact i approve 5 stars, but i ding it for costing 17 bucks for shipping and handling. Im a cheap bastard i guess. I like the articles and the nudity… i try to do those two at the same. read and stare. I like how they dont really hold back when they run with the issues theme… A– Magazine… A–

I love Vice magazine, but I haven’t seen one since I left Montréal. It was partly founded there and free copies were readily available. Here… not so much. I also highly reccomend the Vice guide to fashion (Dos and Don’ts) as one of the funniest books I have ever read. It is literally hours of entertainment once you get the vibe and flow of the jokes. It is twisted and kooky with impeccable style and lack of taste, there is really no publication like it.

No magazine compares. Its free. Its amazing. Its my favorite new Vice.
I get mine in SF every month. I would tell you where, but ??? only get 100 a month and they are gone in a day. The photography is amazing and each edition is themed (i.e. We hate your parent too !, Gangs vs. Cults, We Heart COPS). You get the picture.
