Crazy Meds Mugs & Bumper Stickers Now Available

The annex to Straitjacket T-shirts is now open at Zazzle.  Right now it's all mugs and bumper stickers.  Some have the same designs you'll find on shirts, and some designs that may show up on shirts eventually, and some have their own designs. 
A few examples manage to not look like utter crap as they scroll by:



So get your favorite medication prescriber a gift to show your appreciation, and let them know that someone besides their local pharm reps is thinking about them.

As much as I've complained about Cafe Press' gods-awful interface, Zazzle's is just as confusing, frustrating, and time consuming, albeit in different ways, such as being really fucking obstinate about orienting the mugs. I either want the handle on the left or in the back. Notice how many handles are on the right. And it handles alphabetical order as well as I did in 2003.

Plus at $14 for their least expensive mug, or $1 more than the cheapest t-shirt I offer on Cafe Press, I may wind up splitting the merchandise between the two shops or something.  Fuck if I know.  It's going to be a big pain in the ass no matter what I do, so figuring out which option sucks less is going to take time.

Occupy Big Pharma - or at least wear a t-shirt to tell other people to do so.

New Shirts at Straitjacket T-Shirts:

Occupy Big Pharma
Occupy Big Pharma
Big Pharma puts profits before people. Let everyone know you want to do something about it. Or at least tell people what you think they should do about it.
Fuck Big Pharma!
Fuck Big Pharma!
If Big Pharma really pisses you off, let everyone know about it.
Big Pharma Sucks!
Big Pharma Sucks!
Or you can wear one of these if "F#¢< Big Pharma!" isn't really your style.
Occupy Sanity
Occupy Sanity
It's political AND a cry for help.

And I want you to be able to advertise my site in as many ways as I can think of. 
 
I've just opened a store on Zazzle for non-shirt items like mugs and bumper stickers.  I'm working on those.  I'll probably move the shirts there eventually.

Why I Hate Mythbusters

  1. First and foremost: fewer myths (urban and otherwise) and too many ads for movies disguised as episodes debunking Hollywood physics.  Especially when they do James Bond, because it's product placement within product placement.
  2. While I like explosions as much as the next person, not every episode needs to be about blowing things up.  The Discovery Channel is the "Watch People Blowing Up Stuff Because That's Their Job" network, so they could have an entire show dedicated to great explosions and blowing stuff up. "Tonight on The Biggest Bangs we'll be making detcord macrame, comparing the different properties of explosions produced by vehicles powered by regular, diesel, natural gas, and other fuels, and taking a look back at the 1947 Texas City explosion."
  3. Padding.  My memory sucks, but is a detailed review of what happened prior to the commercial break really necessary?
  4. This one might actually bother me the most: wasting all of that food.  Granted that is a quintessentially American thing to do, but when I see the last 10 minutes of a Mythbusters episode before whatever I want to watch on the Science Channel is on (e.g. In Search Of... Dark Matters) and they're blowing up or otherwise destroying a shitload of food you know what's going to happen?  That's right, there's going to be an ad about starving children that makes you sadder than watching an hour-long infomercial of Sarah McLachlan in puppy Auschwitz.
    No wonder people who live in countries where they like to keep women uneducated and at home all day so they have at least eleven kids hate us.  They're starving and we blow up food for entertainment purposes.
