When I create stuff for Cafepress, it's mostly to tickle my own funnybone. Occasionally someone shares my bizarre sense of humor, they laugh and rarely, they buy something. Mostly my stuff is the sort that will get the crap beat out of you if it leaves your home. ... Ah well. The price of being me...

Anway, without any attempt to suggest you ought to buy, or even to suggest that these things are for sale - let's just say that these things are real. They exist... and if they tickle you, I'd be flattered.

Crossposted to places of genuine relevance.

<lj-cut text="Unregulated Ideas Within">I was bored and my wmd image seemed to be a good starting point for a joke based on the Scarlet Pimpernil...

<i>They seek him here/
They seek him there/
Those Frenchies seek him everywhere!

Is he in heaven or is he in hell?
That demned <b>elusive</b> Pimpernil!</b>

And of course, our Mr. Bush is the epitome of every bumbling foil and tool in movie history.

So I came up with this admittedly obscure tee. It makes me smile. Maybe you are strange enough for it to work too. It IS a convesation piece...

This was due to a comment by Sean Hannidy I heard in a moment when I was too busy driving to hit the CD button.

Hannedy is one of those conservative commentators who's smug idiocy and uninetentional self-parody makes actual conservatives wince - especially when he's talking about something any coservative ought to understand, when he clearly does not.

But that day he was saying that the reason Conservatives Like Him were Good and Liberals were Evil is that Conservatives have the GUTS and Mental Fortatude to boil complicated ideas down to a bumpersticker. The Evil of Liberalism, you see, comes from Thinking and Listening and starting to believe that the world is a complicated place, with no simple solutions!!!

And, hannedy says, any true conservative knows there are!

Kill 'em All! Let God Sort Them Out is one of his favorites. He was suggesting that we should nuke Falluja in retalitation for the deaths of those security guards...

A sense of proportion is not in him.

But of course, some things ARE simple. And here's the bumpersticker response to why neoconservatism, the bush administration, and the war on terror are all miserable failures in practice:

Now, here's the noncommercial bit for this: It's on cafepress because cafepress is free for me. It doesn't make cheap bumperstickers, though. If you feel entrepreneurial, subversive, or both, and you'd like to raise a little ABB cabbage... just ask me, and tell me where to send the graphic. I'd rather make an impact than a dollar with this one.

Anyway, while I was uploading these images - I noticed that Cafepress had come up with an Easter (or Oestra) Bunny. It's so cute. So huggable. So fluffy.

The perfect stuffy for traumatized multiples with the habit of using all your kleenex... ....with a little ATTITUDE!
