Wizard has gone bonkers

Wizard has a new interactive feature on its website for all it's socially inept virgin readers:



You're out bar hopping with your buddies and you spot a hottie makin' eyes your way. You casually make your way over to her and after a minute or two of small talk, you decide this is the perfect moment to tell her about the G.I. Joe room in your parents' house, your 25-box X-Men collection and the fact that you're sporting your lucky Spider-Man boxers this very night. She smiles, quickly makes up an excuse to rejoin her friends and there's only one thought that should cross your mind:

You need Deirdre's help.


Ok, full disclosure time. As some or most of you know, I worked at Wizard for about a year and change. I like most of the people there. I know the people involved in this, too. It's funny. But is it really how Wizard wants its audience to be perceived? Or even worse, how Wizard wants its audience to think it's being looked on by their fav magazine? I dunno. Maybe. I guess I'll have to ask Deirdre.
