The Secrets About YOU in your Magazines

TIME

GOOD

MATURE: It's no lie that Time magazine is for the older generation, or other words, people who are old as shit. So either you're old as shit, or your soul is. Take your pick.

INTELLECTUAL: Going along with being old as shit, with age should hopefully come knowledge, and Time Magazine is full of some very complex and wordy articles.

POLITICALLY CONSCIOUS: You're more than likely interested in some sort of politics, or else you'd just be reading People or Cosmo for that matter.

BAD

BORING: Sorry to tell you, but the chances are that you are a little bit boring if you read this magazine, maybe because you're too much of an intellectual... we can't tell you.


STUFFY: No offense, but you probably take life (and yourself) a little too seriously. We say, lighten up. It's okay to relax a little.

ROLLING STONE

GOOD

MUSIC FANATIC: You're passionate about music. You're probably a musician yourself or would like to be. We love your enthusiasm.

EDGY: Rolling Stone is a bad ass magazine. Point Blank. You gotta be a bad ass to read bad ass material! And let's face it, isn't there something ultra bad ass about being a musician!

HIPPIE/HIPSTER: There's about a 87% chance that you read Rolling Stone just for the underground artists.

BAD

OBSESSIVE: We've all seen it, how the love for music can spill over into obsession. And no one can obsess like musicians!... or gamers... just saying.

ABRASIVE: Everybody's got their opinions, but sometimes you guys take it over board, especially when it comes to knowing those obscure Indy rock bands.








HIPPIE/HIPSTER: It's an 87% chance that you read Rolling Stone just to brag about the underground artists that you already heard of.

 HOME & GARDEN

The real houses of Dundalk

GOOD

DETAIL ORIENTED: This is great! Not many people have the patience or mindset to work out all the little details. And Home and Garden is all about putting small pieces together to get the big picture.

DO IT YOURSELF: If you're reading Home and Garden, chances are you're the kind of person who gets up and just does it! This magazine is meant to make big jobs easier so that everyone who wants to do it... can!

BAD

FICKLE: One drawback is that with all the projects you start, how many do you really finish? You might be one of those people who jumps around from concept to concept, leaving everything unfinished.

METICULOUS: It's never good when you take detail too far. We can't plan everything.

MEN'S HEALTH

GOOD

HEALTH CONSCIOUS: It's nice to find a man who knows that he has to treat his body well. ;)




HEALTH INFORMED: You are probably generally more informed about things like Prostate cancer and testosterone levels than your non Men's Health reading counterparts. Hurray for knowledge!




CONFIDENT: Chances are you're a more confident guy because you're taking your health and your body by the reins! Men's Health is great for giving men the tools they need to feel good about themselves.

BAD

CARB PINCHER: Not just women count calories and avoid carbs, men do it do, and a magazine like this might even enforce it.


MANEREXIC:  Carb pinching gone wrong. Some people may take Men's Health's Diet plans to the extreme and start creating their own methods.

 EBONY

GOOD

PRIDE: Ebony is all about black pride, and if you read this magazine... or even heard of it for that matter, than you care a lot about culture, history and advancement of black people.

LOYAL: This stems from your pride in black culture. If you have a strong enough pride in something, you will be loyal to it. That's basic human instincts right there!

BAD

CLOSED MINDED: You might not be so open to trying new things or meeting different types of people because you feel comfort and dependence with your own culture.



JUDGMENTAL: A lot of people who read these type of specified magazines are sometimes judgmental and don't accept outsiders and things they don't understand.

GQ

GOOD

SUAVE: From all the "guy tips" you get from GQ, you're probably smooth as hell! 

CONFIDENCE SEEKER: It's not a bad thing to want to have more confidence in yourself, especially as a modern man. GQ is the perfect solution for those who want to gain a little confidence boost.

BAD

COCKY: With all the "guy tips" you got, you probably think your God's gift to women... chances are you're not.

LOW CONFIDENCE: You may look like you think you're the shit, but inside you're probably boiling over with insecurities.

What do your favorite magazines reveal about YOU?

What does reading these 6 magazines reveal about your personality... the good and the bad?

Cosmopolitan

Exuding that sexy confidence that has all the boys

hooked. ;)

Top: Kohl's

Custom Necklace: Biloxi Bleau by Yvon Dion

THE GOOD

1. Trendy: Cosmo is all about what's hot now, whether it's clothes, celebs, how to get your guy to open up and commit. Chances are you're really into staying hip and current too.

2. Romantic: You're probably very romantic, believing in true love, flowers and candy on first dates, generally having positive expectations for the world around you.

3. Intuitive: You're most likely someone who is more intuitive than others and like the magazine to back up your natural instincts on certain situations. "Should I have done that, it felt right, but I'm not sure".

THE BAD

1: Unrealistic: You might come to believe most of what's written of those flowery pages, leading you to expect things that might never happen. "But it says that if he punches you, he loves you!"

2: Insecure: It is proven that many people turn to certain magazines because they think they have all the answers and confidence they strive for.

Sports Illustrated

THE GOOD:

Shirt: Kohl's

Shorts: Kohl's

Socks: Shops at Avenue North (Philadelphia

Shoes: Chuck Taylor's

Hat: Polo

Gloves: Rue 21

1. Strategic: Serious sports fans know that sports isn't luck, but strategy. You've probably have a very good understanding of cause and effect.

2. Committed: By actually buying a sports magazine, you've already taken your dedication to another level. You've shown that if you're really interested in something, you'll go the whole mile.

3. Proud: No doubt about it, you're full of pride, for your team, home town, colors... the pride is endless!

THE BAD:

1. Chauvinist: Every Sports Illustrated cover features women in scantier bikinis than Maxim girls. Their clothes are so tight, you can see their pulse. Yet the men are always professional, fully clothed or playing their sport.

2. Obnoxious: Because you have such high opinions and pride, you aren't usually afraid to voice it, very loudly, and in public... and maybe without a shirt on.

Vogue

If it wasn't in, then it wasn't in.

Shirt: The Gap

Tie: Banana Republic

THE GOOD:

1. Forward Thinking: Chances are you look to the future a lot, since Vogue is all about what's happening next, and what's the next big thing in fashion.

2. Creative: You must be a right brained, creative thinker to appreciate the fashions in Vogue as more than just pretty clothes but as an art form. 

3. Opinionated: You are most likely someone who knows what they like and what they don't like and aren't afraid to say so. Being a part of the art and fashion community gives most a distinct opinion.

THE BAD:

1. Pompous: With high opinions and high fashion sometimes comes the delusion of grandeur. This can lead to looking down upon people who aren't as involved in art and fashion as you are.

2. Phony: You may be prone to BS-ing or changing yourself to be accepted or taken more seriously

Game Informer

The new Grand Theft Auto 14 just hit the stands, and we have the Cheat Codes

Shirt: Rainbow

THE GOOD:

1. Patient: Playing one video game, not to mention a whole series like Final Fantasy or Zelda requires a lot of time and patience which you most definitely have.

2. Dedicated: You're more than likely a person who follows through and a true fan. Comic con would be nothing without you.

3. Strategic: Just like those from Sports Illustrated, you thrive on mastering strategy.

4. Good Memory: You also probably have good memory too, from remembering combos, cheat codes, and sequences... etc.

THE BAD:

1. Social Introvert: This isn't always true, but because of your dedication to gaming, you might not get a lot of sunlight--or it's become the only way you know how to make friends.

2. Obsessive: You're probably someone who gets easily obsessed, wanting to know, understand, and conquer everything about what your currently interested in.

People Magazine

Presely Po finally gets the glitch in his system fixed. He reveals that he's thinking about settling down.

Shirt: Pac Sun

Vest: Rainbow

Who the hell is Presley Po??? See here: The Po Bro's

THE GOOD:

1. Grounded: Since People Magazine thrives on humanizing celebrities, you're probably one who sees celebrities as people, like the magazine represents.

2. Realistic: You may also have realistic expectations for people because you understand that everyone has faults and merits.

3. Curious: You have an insatiable curiosity to why certain actions are made or how people became the way they are now.

THE BAD:

1. Gossipy: Because you're so curious, you're probably one to spread and readily receive gossip because you're excited by the flow of unique information.

2. Cynical: You might find yourself questioning everyone motives because of acts of kindness shown in People that seem too good to be true... like Brad and Angelina adopting all those kids.

National Geographic

The real indigenous people of Dundalk

Scarf: Philadelphia (This scarf is everywhere! To see it's first appearance click on the link How to Train Your Scarf--in 11 Different Ways!)

THE GOOD:

1. Knowledge Seeker: You want to know more about the world that we live in, in all different aspects of culture, space and geography and animals.

2. Open Minded: You're probably more willing to accept certain views and actions, that are different from your own.

3. Compassionate: We've found that this kind of reading is for those who feel deep connections, sympathy and empathy for others. You might be a sensitive person who is easily influenced by emotions.

THE BAD:

1. Know it all: Because you've read so much and learned so much, you might be overly eager to display your knowledge, even beyond the point of irritation.

2. Bigot: Sometimes you read the magazine with the belief that your way of life is better than the people you see on the pages.
