the lab review

They should have put this one out first. This book features 260 pages of every single Dos and Don'ts published in Vice magazine plus a bunch of new stuff. The Dos & DonÌts have been running ever since Vice started, and itÌs probably the one nail-down asset that has kept them around so long. Ironic anti-politics and hipper than thou guides to life will get you places, but thereÌs nothing like seeing candid pictures of cool people & idiots on the street, accompanied by the best photo captions ever. ItÌs a legitimate phenom. Measure your visual coolness (am I a do or a donÌt? quickly shuffling to the middle of the magazine to find out); laugh at the amazing fashion ineptitude of middle america/canada; ponder the coin toss fate of the ones that could have gone either way....so easy to get stuck in this book, but so amusing. Full color, and the pictures are a lot bigger. Recommended, and with a note on usage: store in the dumpy room so you can savor it longer.
