"The U.S. military, killing furners since 1773."

I vote for a "Know Your Enemies" series of shirts.

A bloodstained mousepad with all the possible meanings of IMAO in bold white letters.

I would particularly like one citing:

"The cycle of violence will continue until the Palestinians stop being such a bunch of numbnuts... or if Israel finally gets fed up and nukes them all."

Frank, I think you already thought of the it. There's a big
audience too:

"I think it would be cool to find a big pile of manure, put a baseball cap on top, take a picture of me standing next to it, and then post the picture on my webpage saying, "Hey, look! I met Michael Moore!""

Buck the Marine, machine gun ready, standing over the inscription:

"Freedom. Or else".
(also, a Latin translation would be cool)

Rumsfeld, looking angry:

"I don't do diplomacy"
(actual quote)

Condi, looking imperial, perhaps draped in a robe and sitting on a throne.
(nothing more necessary)

The whole gang:

"Bring it on......We're 2-0. Who wants some?"

Just suggestions, of course.

Granted, I know those aren't your quotes, but they use your themes, so....

However, how about a revised-for-wearability version of the Frank Gun Control Challenge:

"If any of your gun control arguments can stop my bullet, you win."

Or similar.

It's really too early for me to be very coherent, but I like both of your suggestions, Frank, and agree with Doug that a series of "Know Thy Enemy"s would be awesome. I'll post more when I think of something, an when I've woken up a bit.

Lady Executioner's mind controlling rays are finally penetrating the skull of Frank J. (Turning on full volume)

Make us T-shirts! Make us mugs! Make us BBQ aprons! Or your mind will melt, you will turn into a monkey and will not get a cent of profit! Bwahhhh!

I vote for the Warmonger's Gang Line.

Bring it on!

I don't think the In My World audience is too small to pull off a T-shirt. As a regular, I would buy one, and I think most other regulars would actually rather have an IMW than a NTM shirt (as if they don't already!) I came here to read the NTM, but stayed for IMW.

Just an idea: solicit artists for drawing up a group picture of the characters. Offer credit on the shirt, and some publicity through the site for the winning artist, or perhaps a % of the shirts would be in order.

Not T-shirts! Halloween costumes! You can dress every kid in North America with this stuff!

Why not a shirt with Rarr! on it? An inside joke, but it shouldn't cause too much confusion among the great unwashed.

That kid, he's France. That was my MSN IM name for a month.

hln

A Hell's Democrats theme would be great.
You could market it to the lefty bloggers and sell it like hot cakes.
Imagine having all sorts of lefties from moderate democrat all the way out to smelly moonbat hippy financing IMAO...the irony.
Indeed.

Lefty Stevens and Melinda Hawkish standing side by side microphone in hand, with the caption "It's the war slut"

I am with Jon H. on this one. Rummy with the don't do diplomacy quote or the whole gang and 2 and 0. Priceless.

I would like my picture on your T-shirts. For every t-shirt you sell I will have a gun melted down in your name.

Please remember, my head is so big, that all t-shirts sold will have to be XXXL.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Michael Moore

How about the picture at http://jenlars.mu.nu/archives/001894.html ?

I gotta say i'm dissapointed that the Nuke the Moons are gonna run out soon...my whole family was planning on getting one for Hannukah. On the other hang, a shirt with the In My World gang would be pretty freakin awesome, and if it looked cool i would definately buy it (as would probably my brothers and father).

You definately need a 2-0 t-shirt, with the rumsfeld quote, i'm just not sure if "the gang" goes as well as Buck imposed on an American Flag. Your patriotism would appeal to everyone except commies, who haven't bought a new t-shirt in 5 years anyway, and monkeys, who don't wear t-shirts.

There will be quite a selection of "In My World" quotes to choose from tomorrow on a certain right wing news blog which shall remain nameless...

paraphrasing: "Do you want to live in a world where the French go unstrangled?"

Hey Frank, did you see this in Best of The Web? Damn Monkees...

Monkey Antibusiness
New research suggests that monkeys are Democrats, the Associated Press reports:

In a recent study, brown capuchin monkeys trained to exchange a granite token for a cucumber treat often refused the swap if they saw another monkey get a better payoff--a grape.

Instead, they often threw the token, refused to eat the piece of cucumber, or even gave it to the other capuchin after viewing the lopsided deal, said Emory University researcher Sarah Brosnan.

She said the results indicate man and monkey may have inherited a sense of fairness from an evolutionary ancestor.

Next question: If you gave an infinite number of monkeys an infinite number of typewriters, would they eventually write a speech for Howard Dean?

Buck the Marine. no question. but he needs to be cute but fierce looking...

Buck, shouting "OORAH!!!!"

Hell's Democrats! That would be so awesome - college lefties everywhere would buy it...but they would be funding IMAO! Feed off your enemy!

Or, two lines of shirts, one for each biker gang. The Warmongerers and the Hell's Democrats. Talk about wide appeal!

OOOOOOOh, yeah, what Tom said! I'd be torn, because while I'm actually a democrat and would like to wear a "gonna cut me a 'publican" T-shirt, I'm a pretty strident warmonger who thinks the great General savior of the democratic party must have REALLY sucked as a general, because he didn't get ANYTHING right he pontificated about on CNN.

Hell's Democrats.

Following Sun Tzu, "Let war finance war."

Imperial Falconer

Howzabout;
Chomps, wearing his blue UN helmet, hunched-shouldered and glaring at the viewer, with the caption:
"Sure this could work, if you project it as THIS!"

Thoughts?

You need shirts with lots of violence on them.

like napalm falling on people and burning them really bad.......that would kick ass.

bUT MAKE THE BURNS AND SCARS AND FLESH WONDS REALLLLLLLY realistic so it will be cool.
you need drawings of american soldiers giving terrorists headshots. you need terrorists with
missing limbs and dead corpses all over the place and american soldiers standing on their dead bodies .

kinda like this picture:

How about a in my world book

We don't like the lefties? Why not? I'm a lefty.

I was going to comment that I think a Warmongers shirt would be cool, but that post from Apallo really freaked me out.
I mean, what kind of weirdo wouldn't capitalize "American"?

I like the idea of a smiling Condi Rice pointing to a nuclear weapon with a smiley face on it with the caption
"It's a 10 megaton 'Happy Bomb'"
Maybe an inside joke, but pretty darn funny.

Gotta be: The whole gang:

"Bring it on......We're 2-0. Who wants some?"

I love the "2-0" idea as well as the "pissed-off American" idea... I'd buy either (or both).

By the way, this is the first time I've posted here but I've been reading you for a while. You've got one of the best sites on the internet, and one of very few I check every day.

I would definately have to put my vote in for Buck the Marine or Hell's Democrats. I also like the idea of the different meanings of IMAO. That's definately a way to get your name out, and I myself have spend many hours pondering that very idea...what DOES it stand for????

I like these quotes. I would like to see them on shirts, bumper stickers, mugs, calendars, or whatever.

Underneath I see whole gang posing for a picture in front of the White House
Personally I always see The Rumsfled Strangler, dressed as Darth Vader, only without the helmet, holding a reporter off the ground by his neck (Like in Star Wars). Condi in her super villianess costume stepping on a reporter, with a Happy Bomb beside her. Dubya as a cowboy,(of course) twirling a lasso. Laure as Mrs. Cleaver holding some fresh baked cookies. Chomps frothing at the mouth, knawing on a reporter. Clancy as one of the Men in Black. Carl Rowe's glowing red eyes staring out from the shadows behind them. Scott with his floral cape swerling in the breaze. Cheney in his undisclosed location. Melinda Hawkish in her bikini using her microphone cable to strangle Lefty Stevens. And Collin Powell looking like, Collin Powell.
