prevnextM.A.D. Magazine is shutting down. I used to read MAD Magazine when I was a kid and I couldn't name a bad issue. Thank you to all the writers and staff at MAD Magazine for a wonderful magazine that entertained millions.

This is why...
prevnextI'm way more outraged over MAD Magazine ending than Disney's latest cashgrab. This is why we can't have nice things.

Culture-Based Humor
prevnextThis was my very first attempt at reading culture-based humor.
MAD Magazine taught me what satire was. Yes, it was broad, but it also hit the target.
Repeatedly😐

Important to his development
prevnextI’m bummed to hear about Mad magazine shutting down. I wouldn’t be who I am without it. The usual gang of idiots fucked me up good as a kid.

It made me Weird
prevI am profoundly sad to hear that after 67 years, MAD Magazine is ceasing publication. I can’t begin to describe the impact it had on me as a young kid – it’s pretty much the reason I turned out weird. Goodbye to one of the all-time greatest American institutions. #ThanksMAD pic.twitter.com/01Ya4htdSR
