I truly want to subscribe to Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, National Geographic, Discover, etc but with the economy and free information on the internet...I'll just save my money for the long while.
I personally don't trust the post in the building I'm in to receive anything on I want on a regular basis (the same reason I won't subscribe to an online rental place). I do pick up Kerrang! and NME fairly regularly. That's about it. I'd love to pick up Alternative Press, but almost nowhere imports it over here. I seriously don't know where you get the time to read all of those magazines James.

Business Week
Newsweek
US News & World Report
Golf Magazine
Official Xbox Magazine
EGM
Reader's Digest
Zoobooks
Highlights
Better Homes & Gardens
Parenting

And a few other kids magazines that escape me...If you have a hundred bucks, or frequent flier miles, I highly recommend the Economist out of England. Expensive, but chock full of terrific articles on world news and issues of the day. I had it for a year for free, but couldn't get myself to renew...a bit too much.

Electronic Gaming Monthly, but only because I got a free subscription for a year.

Only current subscription is to GAmeInformer, but that's just because it comes with my Gamestop members card. I pretty much have my pick of anything I want when I go home, though. My dad subscribes to The New Yorker, Newsweek, The Atlantic, Popular Science, and a few others I can't remember the names of.

The only magazine I get is Portland Monthly, a city mag out of the nearest metropolis. I browse through Newsweek, Time, and Rolling Stone online. Someday, when I'm a wealthy man, I'd love subscriptions to The Economist and National Geographic.
Star Wars Insider!
Classic.

I used to have subscriptions to many motorcycle mags, from gifts, but many of those have lapsed. Now I get Wired (also a gift) and Rider, and that's it.
I wish I still got:
Motorcyclist
Cycle World
Sport Rider

And?? What, you turn 40 and your body creates more waste?? Don't make being "old" worse than it really is :p

Who wants to subscribe to Playboy anymore? All fake airbrushed plastic women. Do not want.
Also: none atm, but I'm going to subscribe to Wired right now.

It's pretty damn awesome! It's as good now as Edge ever was back in the day.

Being, and getting, old is harder than anyone ever tells you! That's all I'll say.

I used to subscribe to most of the motorcycle mags too, but I got tired of the writers having to stop after every paragraph to dump the testosterone out of their boots.
Still like Rider - Has a touring aspect to it that I like, and I just found RoadRUNNER (http://www.roadrunner.travel/); a total travel and touring magazine. Love their format: Well described tours and maps to show the route.
...And Smithsonian.
And I'm getting PC Gamer since I had a subscription to GFW and they died.

I get GQ, it was a present, and it can have some good info in there. I like the cooking tips especially. Maybe someone could suggest a good magazine for the home chef.
But since getting my Blackberry, I find myself reading that more in the bathroom at work and at home. I hit up Ars, Slashdot, ShackNews, NPR.

My free sub JUST ran out.
My ESPN sub just ended too.
I'm still getting Rolling Stone, though.

I guess you could count Game Informer but that gets thrown out every month.

Dude, so am I and I'm at once a day.
Shit, though you're vegan, right? As soon as I'm done with my cleanse I'm moving toward a vegan lifestyle. Do I have tons of healthy shits to look forward to? Oy.
As for magazines:
Wired
ArtForum
Art In America
Art News
Time
The Economist
National Geographic

I can't see any reason to get mags anymore personally. I get all of the information they used to provide me with, for free. Thanks internets. ;)

I also go once-a-day, but it's not a quick in-and-out job(by).

Try the master cleanse. You'll be in and out in minutes. Though it ain't pretty.
Are you vegan or just vegetarian? I'd start a thread but the anti-vegan vibe is strong in this place. :)

Vegetarian! I'd be a wreck without cheese. :)
I also happen to have IBS, which makes each visit to the potty an experience unlike the previous one.
