LLAMABUTCHER INDUSTRIES.....WHEN ONLY A GIFT WITH A SMOKING, SUN-GLASSES WEARING LLAMA WILL SAY "I'M TOO CHEAP TO SHOP AT ZALE'S"
[Update: Stuck to the top of the page for a bit until we get a sidebar link up. Because nothing says "top-notch holiday gift ideas" like a couple of llamas in sunglasses on stuff. Scroll down for regular yips.]
Adam Smith rolls over in his grave...
The LLamabutchers Industries Store (Beta) has opened, featuring tastefully appointed fine goods picked from among our extensive staff of personal shoppers who travel the world to bring you only the finest t-shirts and coffee mugs.
All proceeds will go to charity, if by charity you mean the Rob and Steve DVD and computer game fund.
Yips! from Robbo: Woo Hoo! Let me just say, tho', that any purchase of the Llama Thong by Llama Correspondents or their immediate families is strictly verboten. I just don't think I could handle that.....
YIPS from Steve: New for the discriminating INDC Journal or Beautiful Atrocities reader on your gift list:
I might be your first customer. Order just placed for 2 large mugs.
Yip! Yip!

Posted by: Keith S. at November 28, 2005 10:51 PMConsidering the fact that rumor says you have a whole army of ex-Spetsnaz at your command, feel free to leave it here in the comments. Won't come to no harm. We promise.
Posted by: Robbo the LB at November 28, 2005 11:10 PMWOOT!!!! Got mine. Y'know... just in case that wishlist item gets ignored...
Looks good. Thanks for the work. Maybe future merch could have larger logo? Or small logo off to one side - not bullseye centered? Just suggestions. Speaking as a llama fangirl geek, I have enough trouble keeping eyes on face in conversations. A dead center logo draws even more attention. Ahem. :) Unless said logo is large enough to make the logo the object of fascination rather than what the logo covers. :P Although... could be advertising for the site, I guess...
Anyhoo, good job, Llamas! :)
Posted by: Nicole at November 29, 2005 10:45 AMWell...I've already been forbidden by The Cakeeater, from getting one of the thongs for her for Christmas. I was about to be dissapoined, but on closer inspection, your logo on a thong wouldn't be entirely accurate for Kathy. The area is neither meaty, wooly, nor snippy.
(Now where am I going to stay tonight after Kathy reads that?)
Dude, you are so dead....
Posted by: Robbo the LB at November 29, 2005 04:17 PMA self-immolation so complete that a Buddhist monk might aspire to it. Ouch.
Posted by: The Colossus at November 29, 2005 08:29 PMGreat. Only 20 shopping days left. What happened to November?

Posted by: Kathy at November 30, 2005 10:40 PMUm, I can't find the Cafe Press page with I HATE LLAMABUTCHERS shirts ... ??
Posted by: beautifulatrocities at December 1, 2005 11:33 AMBecause I've always desperately longed to be one of the cool kids, I'll probably get the hoodie, but I'd like the logo to be way bigger. Size does matter, bigger is better, &cet, &cet. Any chance it's just my browser making it look more like a resort logo?
The INDC/BA redesign should probably have something like "How come you never call me anymore?" scrawled at the bottom.
