@cbl_wv@therealjrn I can wear the larger size t-shirts but I have to go a a tentlike oversize so the damn thing doesn’t ride up when bending over. Tall shirts are a couple inches longer, and it makes all the difference.
@cbl_wv@duodec I was just teasing, sorry. Those longer shirts are much better. It seems the clothing manufacturers are making clothing as small as they can get away with nowadays.
@RiotDemon Well that is good as it is almost impossible to buy t-shirts that are even like ones 10 years ago with respect to fabric thickness. One store clerk told me (a couple of years ago) - well just buy and wear two of them. Umm. No. I’d rather they charge a bit more and make them thicker like they used to be.
@RiotDemon@sammydog01@therealjrn that’s where the big push for digital came from. too many reindeer losing antlers to antennas and fucking up Santa’s timetable.
You already have a shirt site. This site is for bluetooth speakers and knives. We haven’t had knives in a while. What’s up for tomorrow, a case of wine?
@hchavers do they? I wore my unladen sallow coconut calculation shirt from Woot to Thanksgiving and my wife was happy. Perhaps it was the wine talking though, but I did wear a tie so maybe not.
Wait… Is the last option, the shirt on the jolly round belly kid, is that shirt a … Leotard option? Cause… That would be weird… But if it’s an option… Then I want it
@warpedrotors apparently so. Upon closer inspection, the jolly belly kid has his underpants pulled up and over the meh shirt so that there is no mistaking what it is.
Too lazy to make them at the moment. Maybe someday.
Plus, I’m cleaning out and working on getting rid of excess stuff. This activity does not bring out lots of joy and holiday cheer in my daily mood.
Goodwill is doing well by me at the moment tho.

Hey all you fuckers
Make these! You won’t regret, unless you are trying to avoid carbs:
(Credit for these ultimate best-you-will-ever-taste-brownes goes to the classic cookbook, The Joy of Cooking.
Get weaponry and fencing, you will need to defend the kitchen until they cool.
Expect them to be finish and gone seconds after serving.)
do be careful melting the chocolate.
Do take the “cool down the mixture” step seriously.
Do lower oven temp 25deg if using a glass pan.
Don’t ice these. The browns are way better than any icing could be.
Brownies Cockaigne
Notes: from The Joy of Cooking. Brownies bake for about 20 to 30 minutes more after being taken out of the oven, so don’t skip the step about leaving them covered with a towel. If you bake them according to the recipe, they will not be done at the end of the baking time. That’s okay - just make sure they sit under a towel.
I don’t like nuts in brownies, so I always skip them. The double-boiler to melt the chocolate isn’t really necessary as long as you’re careful not to burn the chocolate. Keep the heat low and use a whisk to be sure.
Cockaigne is a mythical medieval land of plenty, where all the harshness of medieval peasant life does not exist.
Preheat oven to 350 F
1/2 cup butter
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
4 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
1 cup pecan meats
Melt the butter and chocolate in a double-broiler (or a pot over another pot of boiling water). Let this mixture cool, or the brownies will be heavy and dry. Beat the eggs and salt until light in color and foamy in texture. Add the sugar and vanilla gradually and continue beating until well creamed.
With a few swift strokes, combine the cooled chocolate mixture and the eggs and sugar. Do this by hand instead of using a hand mixer. Before it’s well mixed, fold in the flour. Add the nuts if desired. Stir gently until mixed. Try not to beat the mixture too heavily. Bake in a greased 9 X 13 inch pan for about 25 minutes at 350 F. Cover the pan with a towel and leave it to sit between 30 and 45 minutes. Don’t cut until the brownies are cool as the interiors are still moist when fresh from the oven.

(PS. I personally like them with lots and lots of walnuts added to the batter)
Have to order these no matter what they look like cause one son makes these his wardrobe. Everyday. Been in his school pics last three or four years in a row. . Would love to see these in just solid colors. Lots of solids with only the logo. In all cotton. Would buy from the t-shirt site also. In bulk. Please dear Gods of Meh give me some variety of color with only logos. I feel as if I am owed since I’ve been checking this site DAILY since inception/conception or whatever. I’ve never even scored a fuko bag or the previous versions. It’s like trying to buy unicorn in a sea of one-horned loving fecalfeliacs.
The shirts are nice. In fact, very nice. They shine above and beyond all other t-shirts. When I think of a Meh t-shirt I get a tad tearful. But, my sweet spot is an electronic gadget under $50. Such a thing I will buy regardless of need - such is my need for anything that uses electricity and has at least one light (an LED is preferred). Our house is full of gadgets. I have, for example, so many IP cams that some are simply aimed at each other.

I am half tempted to offer this to my guests as they enjoy my Meh inspired bathroom. My wife really should stop telling me to do stuff
You just gave me the heebie jeebies thinking about Polar Express. Thanks.
No T-Shit please. I am down on my knees begging you with steeze all the time feeling the breeze…
Don’t you just hate the commercialization of Christmas?
(At least when it’s done by meh…)
/giphy awesome rambunctious plane
Am I the only one too stupid to tell which is the bulldog and which is the reindeer?
@gertiestn took me a minute as well
@carl669 @gertiestn I kind of thought both were dogs.
@carl669 @cinoclav @gertiestn I was trying to figue out if the other one was a cat. I guess not.
@carl669 @cinoclav @gertiestn @sammydog01 why does a reindeer need to hold it’s antlers on with a ribbon?
@cinoclav @gertiestn @RiotDemon @sammydog01 prosthetic antlers from a tragic TV antenna incident in the 80s
@carl669 @gertiestn @RiotDemon @sammydog01

Tall sizes please? Is it so very much to ask?
@duodec Apparently so… We’re all supposed to be under 6 feet tall and under 200 lbs in weight. So I guess we aren’t supposed to truly belong here.
@cbl_wv @duodec Y’all need to go shop at Here There Be Giants
@cbl_wv @therealjrn I can wear the larger size t-shirts but I have to go a a tentlike oversize so the damn thing doesn’t ride up when bending over. Tall shirts are a couple inches longer, and it makes all the difference.
@cbl_wv @duodec I was just teasing, sorry.

@cbl_wv @duodec
You forgot this - and have men’s sized feet.
@cbl_wv @duodec @therealjrn And using fabric as thin as possible as well.
@cbl_wv @duodec @Kidsandliz @therealjrn
These shirts aren’t see through thin. They feel really nice and are my favorite shirts.
@RiotDemon Well that is good as it is almost impossible to buy t-shirts that are even like ones 10 years ago with respect to fabric thickness. One store clerk told me (a couple of years ago) - well just buy and wear two of them. Umm. No. I’d rather they charge a bit more and make them thicker like they used to be.
@cbl_wv @duodec @therealjrn Have you tried one of these? They’re longer than a lot of shirts.
@cbl_wv @duodec I’m 6’ 5" and 190lbs and find that the xxl size fits very well.
These are something else.
@RiotDemon And hopefully someone else’s.
I’m a VMP and I haven’t bought anything in months, so this T-shirt cost me $26.
/image blind-foamy-shelf
@awk and it was well worth it, right?
@carl669 I won’t know until I actually get the shirt and feel it against my nipples.
So the dog has fake antlers which are tied on. But the reindeer has real antlers so what’s tied on his head? I don’t get it.
@sammydog01 A scarf?
@sammydog01 @therealjrn that’s what I was asking.
@carl669 says he had an accident so they are prosthetics.
@RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn that’s where the big push for digital came from. too many reindeer losing antlers to antennas and fucking up Santa’s timetable.
@carl669 @RiotDemon @therealjrn I’m gonna go with it’s a fawn and is trying to look like dad. Yeah, that’s definitely it.
@carl669 @RiotDemon @sammydog01 @therealjrn Shouldn’t the modern reindeer be sporting a dish instead of antenna?
I guess they’re twist-ties, eh? Maybe leftovers from the produce aisle?
Good grief, T-shirts on Meh… what’s next, sonicare toothbrushes on Mediocretee?? Blergh.
You already have a shirt site. This site is for bluetooth speakers and knives. We haven’t had knives in a while. What’s up for tomorrow, a case of wine?
/giphy unknowing-assertive-spring
Husbands know not to wear these, or laugh out loud. I want a smiling wife at Christmas, not The Eye!
@hchavers do they? I wore my unladen sallow coconut calculation shirt from Woot to Thanksgiving and my wife was happy. Perhaps it was the wine talking though, but I did wear a tie so maybe not.
@bleedmichigan I just had to google that t-shirt. Monty Pithon nerd shirt. Love it. Along the way I saw this on a t-shirt which gave me a chuckle:
Dog should have been a Doge. Or some other meme. Cause common
/giphy doge
@username Baby Yoda Dog
Wait… Is the last option, the shirt on the jolly round belly kid, is that shirt a … Leotard option? Cause… That would be weird… But if it’s an option… Then I want it
@AZnatural1 Are you fucking with me?
@warpedrotors apparently so. Upon closer inspection, the jolly belly kid has his underpants pulled up and over the meh shirt so that there is no mistaking what it is.
@AZnatural1 what is it with you and fixing fucking sandwiches?
@AZnatural1 they just used a picture of me in a design prototype
Even with VMP, not worth it. Ugly ass shirt for $10? No thanks. If they want to make ugly shirts, they should at least put Irk on it.
These are pretty weak. Not gonna lie, even if they sent me a free one as a VMP this wouldn’t make it out in public.
@Stallion Yeah the art on this one leaves a lot to be desired. Concept could have been good…
I feel like the model # is overly complicated.
Meh humbug.
Truly a Christmeh shirt. Nope. Not gonna happen
T shirts here, t shirts on your t shirt shilling site…The suckage is just too much. Much too much…
Possibly I would have gotten these if they were listed at the old mediocritee pricing level.
: (
@f00l Equally possible is that you would not. These are some fugly shirts, f00l. Friends don’t let friends wear fugly shirts.
@therealjrn
Yep they’re fugly.
But I might have purchased them out of fondness for the parent company. Plus to wear when housecleaning. : )
Not at that price tho.
Oh well
/giphy fugly shirt
@f00l If you’re that fond, why not send HQ some of your special brownies or something?

@f00l @therealjrn add semi-sweet chocolate chips too. Really lovely to bite into them with those added to what you already have listed.

I ordered the gray shirt and it is extremely small. A waste of money. So disappointed.
@Boop136 Is it a women’s? They run small.
These run so small its not even funny. I ordered the XL which should have been big on me, this is smaller than most of my medium tee shirts.
@morwen Did it end up being different than the what the sizing chart says?
