Moralisten boos op Rumag wegens Tshirt

As a result, they were completely eaten and tweeted at Rumag. Because, of course, MAG does not 'die' from angry housemothers, D66 people, twitter moralists, decent constructive boys and other, malodorous or disgusting, members of the decency-saving slots and dicklings.

RUMAG (which is short for Rude Magazine) is a Dutch media company and lifestyle brand based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. RUMAG was founded in October 2014 by Thijs van der Heide and Tim Degenaars, both serial entrepreneurs. Previously they started DNH INC., an internet advertising company focused on building, acquiring and investing in next-generation companies, of which Thijs is current the CEO.

RUMAG initially started out as a blog but after a few weeks their bog posts were shortened to quotes and shared on Facebook. The recognizable style (black and white layout and the points between each word) have become a recognizable figurative mark in a relatively short period of time. RUMAG’s quote have been featured on popular TV shows, blogs, magazines, festivals and public events in The Netherlands. The quotes that RUMAG produces range from quotes that are often humorous, sexually tinted, and rude.

June 2016, RUMAG became a publisher with VICE Digital Network. With the assistance of VICE Digital Network, the RUMAG.nl media platform was launched and focuses on entertainment, relationships, lifestyle, tips and gives a glimpse into the story behind the famous quotes. Two weeks after its launch the platform already had more than 600.000 unique visitors.

From its beginnings, RUMAG has shared it’s quotes and slogans daily on social media. On September 4th 2017, RUMAG entered into an agreement with Dutch Primetime Late-night Talk show RTL Late Night, whereby the show will close off daily with a quote from RUMAG.
