.NET Rocks! Useless Crap - Now uglier and more uselesser

I have to admit that I never expected to see my face on a clock, t-shirt, mug, other mug, hat, sweatshirt, or hoodie, but I guess it's happened.

It doesn't even bother me that it's being sold as (taken from the franklins.net page) ".NET Rocks! Useless Crap."

Weird, weird, weird...

[BTW: Buying any of these items will make you an unstoppable sexual superpower, while purchasing all of them (preferably twice) will render unto you an omnipotence the likes of which would make even the greatest gods jealous (we like to call this “Omnipotence + 1,” and suggest that you never attempt to use it, and only for good when you feel it is absolutely necessary to do so)*]

*Claims made in this plug have not necessarily been tested, and might not probably with some degree of certitude be 100% entirely accurate within a reasonable distance of something that we may or may not choose to call The Truth depending on which side of the Equator you're standing on and whether the wind is southerly or merely warm and northerly, e pluribus unum, so just buy some crap anyway and make us rich, dammit**.

** Seriously - go buy some of this stuff. Daddy needs a new car.

Could I get a girdle of Omnipotence + 1? Omnipotence and girdles just seem to go together.

But... didn't Carl recently announce (can't find the link) that all the useless crap is now priced at cost? Meaning he (nor you) will make a penny, no matter how much of it I buy?

You didn't read the fine print when you signed up for this gig, did you? He got you on the old "percentage of NET profit" scam, didn't he?

Yep - everything is at cost except the sweatshirts, which we make a couple bucks on. The shit is so damed expensive to start with, I figured we write it off as a marketing expense.

Maybe someday we could bring it inhouse, but it's sure convenient to have cafepress do it all for us.

Why don't we just offshore it ;)

Now, I would go ahead and start wearing some of that stuff - show my support for the cause and all - *but* they don't seem to have my size available. Not even close. Could I ever special-order an extra-small?
