Face of Poop and Super-Premium Goats

in Merchandise by jon

Sunday, November 14, 2004 - 10:51 AM

Bear the mark of the Poop Beast upon your chest. Our new t-shirt serves the same purpose as bee stripes or police tape does in nature: it tells other people to stay the hell away. Look your punk-rock best in this glow-in-the-dark monstrosity. Available in regular and babydoll varieties.

Also, heads-up to would-be premium members: November 15th is the LAST DAY to sign up for Super-Premium Goats if you want to receive the Super-Premium End-of-Year (S.P.E.Y.) Package. Last years' package worked out well, so we're doing the same stuff with all new designs and content:

If you're already a member, please make sure that your shipping address and t-shirt size is up-to-date. I just finished this year's Mystery T-Shirt design and it's our best one yet. I can't wait to wear it myself. And signing up is the only way to get one. And remember, Premium members get discounts on all of our merchandise like our new Face of Poop t-shirt.

UPDATE: Here's a peek at the 2004 Mystery Shirt. Pedants, feel free to argue amongst yourselves if this early reveal disqualifies its status as a Mystery Shirt or not. Remember, the only way to get this is to subscribe.

Onoes! If only I'd seen this before running my lines of credit temporarily toward the bottom line by replacing my wardrobe (I had no non-webcomic-tshirts younger than 2 years).

I must now make a mad dash to call in favors! :o

Hey, Jon (or anyone else)...at the risk of sounding completely stupid, is this shirt appropriate to wear to school? And NOT get detention?
Yeah, I know. I'm not always as smart as they tell me I am.
I mean...I'm just confuzzled as to what the shirt is...and...oh, screw it...

Just to test whether that shirt will be accepted, wear this shirt [tshirthell.com] first. If you're still in school after that, you can get away with the pedants shirt.

I was heavily debating upgrading from Premie to Sooper-Premie...

Until I saw the sneak preview.

The check's in the mail, jon.

How much does it cost to upgrade?

I know this has been addressed elsewhere, but I'm lazy.

I think it's appropriate. It's just some ovals, right?

Geez Jon, you've taken all the mystery out of the mystery t-shirt. I love the look though. Hope it brings more SPEY sign ups.

Will the Goat Certificate of Member-ness be sent flatter or not against the shirt to avoid last years staining of the shirt design? I realise it's black on a thin design so it might not show up as badly.

We're going to use this new technology where we flip the paper around. Ingenious!

Thanks for the reminder, though.

Will the mini-comic be a new/different mini-comic, or will I receive yet another copy of "contains one space battle"? I've got 2, and I've given away one other...there's only so many space battles one needs...

Damn it. Damn it damn it damn it. I want the t-shirt, and I guess want the other thigns, but don't have the money (or, if I do, am saving it for other things that I've already spent 40 dollars of on other Goats t-shirts). Damn it damn it!

Will the Pedant t-shirts be available for purchase, maybe at a higher price, to the non-subscribed, once all the subscribees have it? ... please?

Yay!!

And as an interesting side note, this comment was originally supposed to just read "Yay!", however, when I hit preview on this comment with just a body of "Yay!", I get the error message "Something very strange is wrong. Did you maybe submit twice?". It works if I just put in "Yay", or "Yay!!", or "Yay.", but it doesn't like "Yay!". Plain Old Text mode, logged in as me, subject line as you see it.

I assume the Accuracy over Tact was the phrase you were thinking of translating to latin?

If so I applaud the choice to stick with english.
