Yeah - "Men's Health Magazine" sucks for sure, but that's beside the point. 2. I think the IDEA is neat. I've explicitly come here seeking your wisdom. Didn't I say in the post that some of the list items suck? (A good CARVING KNIFE?!). Add something to the list, wiseass! OK:

Some time ago they began to post "items of interest" that were actually paid ads. Men's Health was one of those sponsors, and was widely derided as one of the worst magazines on the planet. Just have a look-see for yourself. I have nothing against advertising per-se, but do have something against disguising ads as blog posts, no matter how inane. Yes, I know - I don't have to read this blog or make snarky accusations, so maybe I won't anymore. Fark.com. Some time ago they began to post “items of interest” that were actually paid ads.
