How is mocking someone clearly suffering from a hernia in any way funny?

The funniest real life story I know involved a man with ULT, later diagnosed as a hernia.

I might buy a copy for the first time in over 20 years and have a read..... I give its life expectancy around three minutes though before Mrs V brands it disgusting and bins it in case Little-V sees it.....

Maybe it's my lack of humour but i think Viz belongs in the 1980's, being laughed at by spotty students. Are you lot who find it funny ex 1980's spotty students by any chance?

Erm . . . yes

My missus buys me one to keep me quiet on the plane when we go on holiday. Last year I proper laughed out loud at one of the readers letters and got a big shushhhhh from the wife. About an hour later a bloke 2 rows back cracked out laughing.I looked over, he had the Viz. I reckoned he, d got to the bit I'd seen earlier.

I kept my old Viz annuals till we moved house 13 years ago, and I was encouraged to 'out away childish things'. Going to Smiths later... I feel the return of adolescence coming on. (well, it never went away really, but...)

I've still got my signed "book of cr@p jokes". A bit heavy on the doctor jokes, but my daughter finds them funny now (must be getting old).

yes, but "Student Grant" was a (brilliant) parody of its own readership and they / we can take a joke too

I made sure I bought the latest edition today when I left Stansted airport: look forward to reading it again after years in the wilderness.
