I guess that’s supposed to be a bad thing, but I don’t know… I am feeling pretty good about the whole thing.

Sweetest Potato Shirt Yet

admin — Tue, 14 Dec 2010 20:54:49 +0000

So, with all the holiday feasting going on, this design idea arose out of one of those post-dinner stupors… you know those… where you are just sitting there on the couch with your pants unbuttoned, practically drooling and glassy-eyed, staring up at the ceiling? Yeah that! Well… that wonderful orange winter veggie The SWEET POTATO, is, if you think about it, nothing but inspirational. Truly.

So… enjoy the feasting, and EAT all your SWEET POTATOES!!! They are good for you. In fact, in their natural state (without a big scoop of butter on them) they have ZERO fat, ZERO cholesterol, some vitamin C, crazy amounts of vitamin A, fiber, protein, iron. Sweet potatoes just flippin’ rock! Go with it!

Don’t Badger the Badger!!!

You know… once the badgers start getting grumpy, you know we have some serious problems. The next thing is going to be Badger Unions, all fighting for equal rights and a 40 hour work week… and where the heck will our economy end up then? Huh? Just keep the badgers happy and working and we’ll be alright. We’ll pull through. The sky will not fall and the sun will shine another day.

Ninjas!

This design has been in the works for a few weeks, first as a little glimmer of an idea, and now as this wonderfully inspiring design. It comes complete with Whitney Houston lyric reference, which actually may or may not be staying on the design, but we’ll see. Anyway, here’s a look at the next newwwwwww design for November.

And yeah… we know we’re behind, but we got lots of ideas jumbling around in our brains, so we’ll be with you soon with some more GREAT shirt designs!!!!

Sea Turtle!!!!!

I don’t know about you, but to me, Sea Turtles are just the best! I mean, turtles in general… they rule! I met a turtle once… well, several turtles, well… actually there were probably about 30 little cute baby snapping turtles in this pond, and we were all leaning over the side of the row boat we were in looking at how cute they were. Aaaawwwwwww… so cute! And then, up from the murky depths, rose the grandma turtle, who I swear had to be 200 years old. She was all craggy, with horns coming out of everywhere… she was at least 2 feet across. So… there is no moral to this story, aside from this: “Turtles Rule!” And Sea Turtles are in a precarious situation lately, so think about it.

After Some Minor Technical Difficulties…

We’re back online here at DBA! The November Shirt-A-Thon-Design-A-Day-T-Shirt-Mania-Month-of-Doom SHALL continue!!!

Hey, you know… better late than never, and better in November than on Pluto in December (forever a planet in our hearts!), since it’s so damn cold on Pluto in December. But the airfare can’t be beat!

Anyway, without further ado, to begin the catch up session on November’s designs, we’ll start here:

More to come… we’ll have 30 designs for November if it kills us… or lands us on Pluto in December.

Opinions on Extiction

Who better to comment than someone who has been there and done that?!

Well, we’re still on a kick after watching a great movie called “Home” (see earlier posts). If you know anyone who might dig this new vibe we are trying to create, please please please send them a link to our site or have them follow us on Facebook… or you could even buy them a nice shirt for the holidays… or just because you are nice. Help us out by spreading the word about Double Barrel Apparel. We want to make something happen here so that we can sell millions of t-shirts and donate millions of dollars to environmental causes. And who can’t agree with that idea? eh?

Serious Protests Worldwide…

Now this is a protest I can get behind!

Politically Correctness for the Work-friendly/Kid-friendly Crowd

Well… we got some requests for more all-ages wording for our recent designs. Ask and you shall receive.

More Holiday Gift Ideas

Well, we were so thrilled with the outcome of the other environmental-minded shirt design that we wanted to continue the trend.

Here is the second of perhaps many designs inspired by Mama Nature and all the furry and feathered and scaled creatures that just can’t seem to convince us humans that they are too cute to watch them suffer and lose their habitats and their… um… existences. Heck, imagine if there were 80 gazillion polar bears driving around cars that ran on peanut butter, and somehow peanut butter was the thing that totally f*ed our sh*t up… I mean, we could live with a little peanut butter now and then, but the polar bears just could not stop going to that damn polar bear mall to buy a new faux human-skin purse, and they just HAD to have that 3rd PB-guzzling car for junior so he wouldn’t have to walk to Polar Bear High… Right. Anyway, I am sure we would not be too excited with Ma and Pa P-Bear if the roles were reversed. I am almost certain that some cowboy or other would have preemptively shocked and awed the living poop out of the North Pole just to be sure that little Johnny Whitebread would not have to die a slow, sticky, peanutty death.

So yeah… Polar Bears don’t generally respond to their problems by shocking and awing anyone, but maybe you can help them get their message out by wearing this simple T. We plan to donate a percentage of the profits from these shirts to causes which have a proven record of alleviating the toll of Global Warming on the planet and on those whose voices are too quiet to be heard over the hum of our televisions.
