Oh Gutter! Thou utterest the sweetest news from thine maw of gutterness! Oh how I thank thee, from mine java-pigginess!

Damn well better not be raiding my coops for those eggs, Christmas or not!

Can I get a white mug that just says, “This isn’t white. You’re just racist.”

How about "this mug is racist," and let the color speak for itself? It makes the joke punchier.

“This mug says you’re racist.”

I like the Python-esque vibe the accusation brings.

Is it too much to ask for a mug that says “Fauci can suck my dick”?

Hey, for serious, would you buy one? I'm checking into our printer's rules about profanity, and I can absolutely design one.

My sense of humor isn't for everyone, and I own that. Husbandmouth and I intersect on a lot of things, but he does not do the "juvenile dick and fart jokes" domain of comedy at all. He's not a big fan of the "awful=funny" in most cases, too. I have the "Why You Always Lyin" song on my phone so I can play it on demand, and one of my worst threats to him is to make it my ringtone (which is currently the original "Let's Go Brandon").

My hubby had mine as a duck. I was thinking (aloud) of changing his to a turkey call. When one resorts to fowl language, it's then fair game after all.

Now his ringer for me is a cat. Haven't yet decided what my next meow'v will be.

What would you think of a 20 oz "I Refuse to Live in Fear" white mug, but with red print?

It has been done! The entire "I Refuse" line has been updated.

On its way. Check this weekend at the latest.

And maybe a trigger warning in the black 15 oz?

They will ALL be available in the 15 oz as Brothermouth continues updating them. Tomorrow at the latest, I'd imagine.

I hate to ask this, but would you send a one sentence ( or so)reminder when the uberupdates are complete?

Will do. We have a lot of other work to get done today, in addition to our day jobs.

Expand full comment
Perplexity's avatar

Thanks, Gutter. I'll only be ordering one or two in the 20 oz, and a couple of the 15 oz, as I navigate the delicate balance of cupboard space vs. java-lust. And some of the designs might not be the best on white, without some fancy color adjustments.

Expand full comment
Guttermouth's avatar

Let me know on those, I've already started reviewing, hence the updated Malign Creativity one.

Perplexity's avatar

I LOVE the multi-color Malign Creativity on the 20 oz.

Guttermouth's avatar

It looks REALLY good on the black tees and hoodies too. Brothermouth already wears one.

But yeah, when I saw it on white I knew it needed more color to pop. I'll be doing more colorization on the more complex designs for white mugs.

I’d buy merch but you don’t provide any details about the fucking carbon footprint 🤬 How many trees will you plant if I order a mug, eh, EH?????

I hope I am turning into my mom: that'd be amazeballs.

I want designs like those guys that do the SciFi delftware that look all elegant and chinoiserie until you look closely and realize it's Godzilla eating Tokyo

In tall elegant mugs, preferably with a slight fluted pattern.

In white.

You asked!

Dearest Guttermouth...

YETI is my preferred container these days, and the tall ones, with lids...any color would do. I promise to buy one if you produce them....

Expand full comment
Guttermouth's avatar

YETI doesn't do print on demand; the one-off custom designs are very expensive to buy one at a time and there's basically no margin. (I'd have to charge around $60 for the regular-sized coffee flask to make a lower margin than we get on the current stuff)

Since you're a fan of the product line, you've probably noticed they are NOT cheap (but damn they are great quality). Stocking them wouldn't be cost-effective for me unless I had, like, a few hundred or thousand paid subs and could realistically expect to move them at scale, and I certainly wouldn't be able to stock the sheer variety of current designs.

Alluminator's avatar

I understand. Camelback makes a similar product, probably just as expensive. Maybe a decal that could be laminated onto such a utensil....

I personally LOVE your writing, you come through with a wonderful sense of humor...

Expand full comment
Guttermouth's avatar

Decals are a great idea and something we can absolutely do. Brothermouth and I will explore sources.

Thank you so much for the suggestion.
