    Zine is short for [fanzine]. For all intensive purposes, a zine is a cheaply-made, cheaply-priced publication, often in black and white, which is mass-produced via photocopier and bound with staples.
    Most zines revolve around a music scene of some sort, but others are dedicated to artwork, poetry, cartoons, editorials and short stories. Because zines do not have any sort of corporate backing, they are very rugged, individualized, and much more charismatic than larger, more popular magazines whose content is often dictated by their advertisers.

          the word was coined around the 70s (way before I was born) during the days when people discarded all syllables but the last. (pizza = za, matches = ches... seems like only zine survived.)

          So its basically a crudely made magazine.

          Mostly punk/poetic/indie/misunderstood/lost/artsy/goth/loner/whatever teenagers do it now.

          They write/draw whatever they want on pieces of paper, photocopy, staple, and sell them for anywhere from a few dimes to a few bucks. Many are also free.

          If you buy a zine for over , you got ripped.

                Beer. Slang for Hefeweizen, a type of wheat beer. Can be used in reference to any beer type though.
