As one of the younger(ish) people in this thread (I think?), I can say that...Playboy was never relevant to me.

Not only is there free porn on the internet, there's BETTER (and still free) porn on the internet.

Ha. For the generations that grew up before the internet, the relevance of Playboy was finding stacks of them in the garage or basement of someone or other's dad and spending a rainy afternoon looking at pictures of "naked ladies with big boobs." Yes, even as girls, these pictures (and the erotic stories in Penthouse) were fascinating, because they were forbidden (to us), and they gave us a glimpse into the adult, male psyche.

Plus, they gave us a jump start on comparing our bodies to those of airbrushed models. But I'm surprised Playboy's lasted this long.

Playboy's big announcement strikes me as pretty sad. It's circulation is half that of Maxim, and nobody is reading Maxim. Who is going to do a big interview in a magazine that no ones reads and no longer even has a hook?

RIP Playboy, though you should have been buried a decade ago.

Playboy was a hero to most
But it never meant shit to me you see
Straight up nudity that sucker was
Simple and plain
Motherfuck Hefner and John Wayne
'Cause I'm Horny and I'm proud
I'm ready and hyped plus I'm amped
Most of my porn stars don't appear on no stamps

Did Gentle Ben tell a bald-faced lie?

Based on available information, Baltimore police it can't verify Republican presidential contender Ben Carson's account that he was held at gunpoint at a fast-food restaurant in the city, the department said Tuesday.

Carson, a retired Johns Hopkins Hospital pediatric neurosurgeon, told Sirius XM Radio last Wednesday he was in a Popeyes restaurant while working as a doctor in Baltimore when a man came in and put a gun in his ribs.

"I just said, 'I believe that you want the guy behind the counter,'" Carson told "Urban View" host Karen Hunter.

"He said, 'Oh, OK,'" Carson said.

Carson didn't say when the incident occurred. He was director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins from 1984 to 2013.

Baltimore police said they've searched several databases of incident reports at Popeyes restaurants as far back as 1987 in response to news media requests. They have found none that mention Carson. Reports from earlier years cannot be searched without a report number, Wayne Brooks, a legal affairs assistant, said in a written statement.

Brooks said a database of arrests from 1967 to 2001 cannot be productively searched without the name of the person arrested.

"Hopefully, this explanation is satisfactory for our friends in the media and shows that BPD has done a diligent search for reports of any incident involving Dr. Carson," Brooks wrote.

Asked to clarify the timing of the incident, Carson spokesman Doug Watts said the incident happened "30-plus years ago."
