NEWS Readers of Viz will no doubt be pleased to know that they are now able to contribute to the politically incorrect magazine's infamous 'Profanisaurus'.
I Feel Good (IFG) today announced it has teamed up with wireless marketing expert Flytxt to open SMS as a channel to readers of Viz and Bizarre magazines.
Viz readers can send in their own lewd and crude Profanisaurus definitions and sign up to receive the best of existing definitions.
In addition, Viz and Bizarre readers can text in their general comments and questions to the editor.
Viz readers signing up for the 'Best of Profanisaurus Definitions' will receive a text on Monday morning and Friday afternoons, and will cost them 25p per message. Readers texting in their own messages will be charged the same amount.
(If you're of a sensitive nature, we advise you to stop reading now).
Examples of Profanisaurus definitions are:
* Butter your cheeks. v. to fart and follow through
* Custard cousin. n. The relationship one has with those who have shared the same slice of pie. Eg. Brian Ferry and Mick Jaggar are custard cousins, as are Liam Gallagher, Ally McCoist, Jim Kerr and the 14th Battalion of the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards.
* TUBER. acronym. Medic. Doctor's shorthand written on the notes of good looking female patients. Totally Unnecessary Breast Examination Required.
The service coincides with the new edition of Roger's Profanisaurus, which goes on sale on 20 September.
Phwoar! Look at the txts on that...
