“Punch those sluts”; “Die in hell from chlamydia”; “You stupid cunts”; “I’m going to take your testicles and pound them with a hammer”; “Go fuck [yourself] with a chainsaw up [your] asshole till it mutilates [your] insides” and “I’m gonna bomb your headquarters” are some of the evocative empty threats levelled at the editors of British [and, misguidedly, American] GQ after the magazine unveiled its September issue covers featuring all-singing no-dancing Ewoks One Direction, accompanied by ‘engaging’ copy designed to generate sales and discussion of what are otherwise five pretty innocuous covers.
