Correct.


Nothing will.




At this point they are just flailing their arms as they descend into the abyss.




The problem for Playboy is their company name is "Playboy".


Their business and their brand cannot be uncoupled from a pretentious mode of living that barely ever existed when it did and has since ceased to exist at all.


At least now we have the answer to the generations-old question, "Who reads the articles in Playboy?"


The answer is no one.

She's a gorgeous woman, many women from that part of the world have big eyes. My face would not look good framed like that, ha ha!

I did try on a Taliban style Burka once... the kind that only lets the woman peek through thin mesh fabric that covers the eyes. (My son brought it back from Afghanistan where he had served in Kabul) That thing was evil. Not being able to see properly, and the part that you could see through was also narrow so no peripheral vision. I had to take it off right away cause it made me nauseous and claustrophobic!

Anyway, as a kid, I remember my uncles having the magazine and of course they "read it for the articles"! Ha ha!

Strange turn Playboy took...

Could be the plan. Generate sympathy to get sales.
