Of course this shit wasn’t written in 1994, AIDS only became cool in 2005. Plus, I don’t even think Ryan McGinley is that stupid, that letter seems to have been written by a ten year old. |  | Anonymous, on Oct 15, 2009 wrote: haha. good point. but both of the features you mention are great. |  | Anonymous, on Oct 14, 2009 wrote: So McGinley is taking photos for Levi’s and Richardson is doing GQ photoshoots of the hot housewife from "Mad Men". The real joke isn’t this issue-it’s reality. |  |

Idiot... That ’ryan mcginley’ was born in 1977 and has had his photos is Vice. |  | Anonymous, on Oct 8, 2009 wrote: not the most flattering photo. ryan looks slightly downy and not in the detergent way. |  | Anonymous, on Oct 8, 2009 wrote: I googled ’ryan mcginley’. turns out he’s an artist and photographer now, actually. with a gallery and everything. unexpected. |  | Anonymous, on Oct 8, 2009 wrote: double peace outs! |  | Anonymous, on Oct 8, 2009 wrote: dig the beanie |  | Anonymous, on Oct 8, 2009 wrote: jajajajajaja... |  | | Next 30 comments > |
