Oh, that's glorious.
Indeed it is.
But it also creates the awkwardness that, like user names, you have to explain to others what the actual f*CK it means....
And that explanation involves "well, there's this internet forum for bikes that I visit...."
****OS, the explanation always starts with ****OS
I don't even drink tea or coffee and I still want one.
"Sudocat"
Owned with Bombers
Mugs next... I feel a sketch coming along.
And that exploding tyre/penguin image.
But on principle I refuse to buy anything now unless it is marketed from a crayzee website with whacky graphics by a gung-ho CEO
I’d be concerned the mug was impregnated with picolax and anyone drinking from it could be the next victim! ?
I hope so. Mine is going to live on my office at work. As previously mentioned, I don't drink tea or coffee so I'll soon know if anyone 'borrows' it ?
One of my colleagues used to work in medical imaging and radiography so he may get it but the others won't have a clue.
I did try and lobby for sudocrem cat merch, but I don’t the AI mock ups helped my cause.
Haha! The last one would cause on outrage from some members about having ads.

Peak website design right here.

I've just checked that out. It's very bright, isn't it.
Please please please let the new forum look like that.
Try logging off (or in my case, just trying to use it on mobile, even logged in), and you'll be pleasantly surprised, I think. 🙂
Out of interest, do ST get a comission from Skimlinks form anything bought from the ST shop via a link from the ST forum?
Every little helps?
Actually, What you need to do is a mug multipack:
****OS
Picolax
Sudocrem Cat
Owned With Bombers
Wee in their shoes
Hammer Frozen Sausage into their lawn
It works fine on my iPad
There must be one more classic I've missed to make it up to an 8-pack? Hamsters? Great Hack reference?
(Feel free to put my royalty cheque in the post)
EDIT: Oooh - a personal favourite of mine: "I remember this when it was all coffee and cream". May not have the profile of the others, I admit...
Ok You've sold me a pu... err cup
When it comes to mugs/clothing with phrases about a forum on the internet, I get a bit icky. Can’t imagine I’m the only one, and yet the STW logo is a lovely bit of design and just subtly on a nice quality navy polo shirt (not all of us wear T-shirts) I’d put money on would get people buying. I would.
And that’s my unasked for opinion.
@keithb there used to be many references to felching hamsters which could make for an interesting mug and talking point in the office. Or a trip to HR and belongings in a box shortly afterwards.
Or the ? in a ?!?
Or ... "And allegedly ride bikes as Well!"
Inside the mug.
Pumping up the badger. I did a sketch from memory.
Is this still a contentious topic issue?
How about... "Berm It" on the inside of the mug.

I don’t even drink tea or coffee and I still want one.
There’s always soup, you know…
It’s what I put in my original STW mug, perfect size to hold a whole can of Heinz soup.
@mark Yup, that’s it (I had just the subtle cog logo in mind, which I also think would more suit the smart/casual nature of a polo shirt).
And whilst I’ve got the mic, the 502 hamster cog is a lovely bit of design too that surely has other uses like a mug?
Just read through the description, and whoever did the proofreading deeds to be chastised. I mean, really! [img]

Now, this is your Picolax cat after being washed…
Just read through the description, and whoever did the proofreading deeds to be chastised. I mean, really!
I agree. We all deed to point out grammatical and spelling mistakes.
This?
Erm isn’t picolax trademarked?
Bang on! (although I may be alone, but that's great - discrete, will be nice quality and doing a bit to keep the hamsters etc)
Final request would be a little bit tailored/brought in - not full blown slim fit (obvs!) but just to enough to give it a nice smart/casual fit that can be dressed up or down. Genuinely would be a 'take my money' from me.
Yeah, I really like that also.
Leave it with me. I'll need to get a sample made up to check it's all good.
Ace!
Chatgpt was being a moron. But i want a black t shirt with something like this.
Despite three goes ot wouldn't chnage magneto dog to actually look like a dog with a plastic chainring guard on his head.
Me, I’d love a ‘University of Transylvania’ tee.
or just a tee that reads ‘complaints dept.’
(I’ve got one of those faces)
🙂

I've just had a play with Gemini. I can get Magneto Dog and I can get Sudocrem Cat, but not simultaneously.
Or a forum Big Hitter 🙂
I wonder where bluestone is now.
Blue tone, not Bluestone arrgghh.
Someone forgot plane on a conveyor belt.
There’s always soup, you know…
Well my mug arrived yesterday and it looks great and may well handle a can of soup, just
I'm assuming the mug is microwave proof, although I won't find out until the New Year as it's sat on my desk and I've finished for Christmas now 🙂
‘Owned with bombers’ is the greatest phrase ever to come out of STW.
I also liked ‘hoof him in the slats’.
I still regularly use 'hoof him (/it/her) in the slats' but not sure I'd want it on a mug....
@mark You’ve not got much going on at the minute, so I wondered if any news on the polo top sample?
