A Sad Day for the Gutter

At the request of Jenn, I am dedicating today's blog to the passing of a website that was very near and dear to our hearts. tshirthell.com, the maker of some of the most disturbing and wrong clothing available in the world today, has ceased to offer it's Worse Than Hell line of shirts. Their standard offering, which includes the shirt I now own, OB/GYN Kanobi, and the one Jenn has, WWJD for a Klondike Bar, is still available as is their line of baby and toddler shirts, including my personal favorite, Hung like a 5 Year Old. However, based on the press release they posted on the site as of Monday, the owner of the site feels that the Worse Than Hell line goes to far.

And frankly, that's why the discontinuation of the line is so disappointing. Those of us that like shirts that say Jesus Did It for the Chicks will no longer have a nice little spot to visit and feel warm and fuzzy. In honesty, the worst part of it is the reasoning and the apology if they had offended any one. Well, DUH!!! Of course your'e going to offend people. But what's the harm in that? Enough of this tip-toeing around like a bunch of pansies. Self imposed censorship is still censorship. I'm not a big fan of the censorship.

Obviously, since it's safe to assume that they guy was making money, someone else willing to rasie the Banner of the Gutter will do so and take Worse than Hell's place. And if that portion of the site was actually a loser and there was no money to be had in it, then say that. There's nothing wrong with being a capitalist. But I suspect the degenerates will have a voice once again in the very near future. I'm just lazy and don't want to have to go looking for it all over again.

Wow, do I know someone that lives in Finland? Or is my blog now offically "World Renowned"? Introduce yourself Mr. Finland.
