took me 4 different stores to find it, and it SUCKS now!

way too many ads, and lame ass writing. it was much better 3 years ago. I also bought FHM and it's not much better :-/

Eh...Maxim, Stuff, and FHM are all the same with different logos.

Just download the scans of the pictures you wanted to see in the first place.

...and they airbrush out the nipples, thus rendering the magazine COMPLETELY useless. :|

You grew up?

Seriously, the writing is about at the level of The Man Show, without being intentionally stupid like Son of the Beach.

Yeah, stuff has a bunch of 10 year olds writing their articles. At least Maxim is funny sometimes. I can't even read stuff anymore because the writing is so annoying. it's like this HUGE attempt to be funny, that fails miserably.

ugly girls?

Yup.
especially the street submissions.
They take an attractive girl, then outfit her in something emphasizing the weak area of her body, and put her hair together for a different look than she has. Like everything they do is counterintuituive.
Plus the bulbous abdomen popularity I will never understand.
