I was on a quest one night to find some Pajama Jeans when I decided to stop into the local Kmart.

Maxim Says the Darndest Things: March Edition
Oh, Maxim. You make it so easy to laugh at you. Today, when purchasing this month’s Maxim, I was charged like six dollars. I paid six freaking dollars for a 30-page magazine full of naked women.
