What's in a meme? That which we call GWJ by any other name would smell as sweet.
One of the big ideas from last year's donation drive was kicking off a site for GWJ-specific and gaming-general merch for things like tee shirts, mugs, bags, flags, and other types of swag based off some of the physical donor rewards.
What else can we put on there, though? I was able to find this link in the Wayback Machine for the memes in the Goodjer Commandments, which is rich with ideas. Unfortunately, some have aged rather painfully.
I'll still definitely be pulling from that list. Guidance or feedback on what people would actually put money down to wear on their bodies or stick to their fridges or laptops would be appreciated.
Also, I'm very open to ideas and suggestions outside of the commandments for merchandise, as well. If there's anything that YOU would like to see on some GWJ gear, please make suggestions here and I'll see what I can do about making that a reality. Is there a GWJ subgaming group looking for a crest or logo? I got you. Have a wild idea you'd like to actualize into a sticker? Let's talk.
To give you some idea of our potential, here's a few new ideas. I called this one The Origin of Stan. Shout out to my art history pals. Spoilering because our Editor says it's NSFW. Sir, excuse me, this is ART.

Here's a few more I've been toying with. Do you want to be able to sit on a bunch of goodjer faces at the same time? Go ahead! (This one is not final, I have some stans to add; and will remove anyone who doesn't want their face on a pillow. If you see your face here and you want it removed, dm me. There will also be an email soon).
Would you like to do so while sipping from a re-creation of a much-sought-after Bombsfall mug?
Would a more effective apron be covered in weinerbombs? Or would a massive weinerbomb on the chest be more impressive?
It’s just me running the shop and creating most of the designs that would be requested, so bear with me if there are a lot of requests or if I’m not able to do stuff outside of my skillset. However, I'm still open to try. We also have potential commissions in the works. Let me know what you'd like to see!
I'm hoping to start getting things going live soon with the established designs shared so far. After the donation drive prizes were made, some adjustments to designs need to be made before going public with the page, which I'm still working through now. Once completed, those items will be set and we can start on the next round of ideas suggested here. Thanks again all!

That feels like it was forever ago!
Old dead memes?
You know, GWJ shirts are like Zelda shirts for grownups.

I thought I was an old timer on the site but a lot of this stuff went over my head. Guess I should be glad that my former craziness didn’t become immortalized? Cause if they were updating that list today I’m sure my comment about scuba divers and the OK hand sign would make the list.
Btw I love the mug and would definitely buy one!

Me too, provided it was 16oz

I would definitely buy that mug.
I'd also hope some version or subset of the stickers and t-shirts that were part of the donation drive rewards make a comeback. A hoodie is also a classic choice. Maybe coasters? A Stan logo keychain?

Unfortunately, they don't have keychains! They've got quite a few other things though, so hopefully there's something that will catch people's eyes.
And yes all the originals will be on there. Due to some design choices with some options we tried during the donation drive, the imagery may be the same but the placement on some

"Wiener bomb" still feels to me like the perfect encapsulation of the early days of Xbox Live.
WHERE DO I ORDER THE APRON??

I'm still double (and triple) checking every toggle is properly toggled and the pricing is consistent. Every time I think I'm done I take a final pass and find at least one thing.
Do you want pubes in your chilli? Because that's how you get pubes in your chilli.

No straight jacket? Well, maybe just an golden straight jacket icon.
Also, maybe a chair cushion type pillow, a fart sponge as it were.

How about some swag making use of the donation icons?

Yes! Why stop at just the weinerbomb. I saw someone doing stickers in a way to use a large sticker template to make mini stickers. Blew my mind, I'd love to try the golden icons as sticker packs if I can figure out how to get it to work
I just read through the entire SillyRabbit/Vinnie thread as a result of this link, Amoebic. Thank you for posting it - and I love this community.
