We see so many websites these days begging for money. It’s just so unseemly.
Even though we’ve had to cut back on feeding our office cat Obama to once a week, we will not stoop to that level. But being the anti-welfare capitalists we are, we can sell you something. And it’s something we know you are dying to have anyway.
We’d like to sell you a stylish shirt adorned with your favorite website’s logo. If you don’t want a shirt, choose a bumper sticker for your car or your office wall. And, if you don’t want either of those, there’s a great mug for your cup of joe every morning.
And go ahead and send in a photo of yourself wearing your new shirt, holding your cup of coffee, or admiring the sticker on your car. If enough of you do it, we’ll put all the photos on a page here and make you world famous. And, again, being the win-win marketing capitalists we are, we’ll even add a link to your website or social profile if you like.
Go forth and support us buy something: IHateTheMedia store

To play the disenfranchised voter here I will say, "I have been denied my purchasing rights because my style shirt isn't offered! I want a V-neck!!! (hey, us thick necked women need a V-neck to fool the eye of the beholder) Once again, the man is denying me the right to vote with my money."
Sicssors. :)
Seriously though, I am surprised they don't have one. By the way, in case it's not intuitive there, you can select See all Colors and Styles to see all the variations of the shirt.
Is there a way to simply donate to IHTM? I hate ordering t-shirts and having to face that I am in denial about my true shirt size.
That's very kind of you. We've never taken a donation before, so I just made up a page you can donate to:
https://www.ihatethemedia.com/donate
thanks, some $ on the way. Confirmation number: 3J7532591X632583E
Good going Jimbo. you the MAN man. I've been prying for a job because I have so many causes, information sites, and candidates I want to donate to. I can hardly wait to have a few extra bucks. I know there are lots of good people out there who are making up for some of us and I love it... Keep up the good work.
Received! Thank you very much.
Love to have a shirt and may buy one when I get the money. I like Joe's idea but I'm sure you don't think it will work. But it made me think of something. I remember when companies used to give away shirts and hats with their name on them as advertising and I also remember when that changed and they started selling them. I could never figure out why I should pay to help you advertise your product, that's your job to pay for you own self advancement. Just saying, but don't get me wrong, I still may buy one...
Sorry you are not allowed to buy one. They are only for rabid fans who have an extra twenty buck in their pockets.
But let me consider your idea. We've got I'd guess about 100,000 readers that comes by once a week. A hat, plus shipping, would probably cost us $10 a piece. That's only a million dollars. We make about 1/1000 of that a months in ad clicks (divided by staff). Wow! That's a great plan. Better than Obamanomics!
No worries though, if we're not here next week, our idea didn't work either.
Just kidding, I hope you're here next week. I'm just an unemployed minority man waiting for the Messiah to come to my rescue. When he does I'll buy that shirt. Hum, you might have to wait a while...
I take it no ones saggy man boobs at IHTM were good enough to sell some t-shirts. Don't get me wrong, the evil capitalist in me would be more than happy to buy from the evil capitalist in you, but this evil capitalist has no money. I realize you invested in models 25 years younger than all of you to sell your shirts, and for that I sympathies, but still I cannot buy. So, I will play democrat and ask that you give me one for free. Or better yet, sell a shirt, mug, and bumper sticker to someone else and mail them to me instead. It's just fair, or so I'm told.
To help us determine if you qualify for a free shirt, we need to know your racial makeup please. Please submit in triplicate.
I am the descendant of French Huguenots, Vikings, Swiss, German, Jewish, Quakers, and am a Spencer(as in Lady Diana). White, except in summer, when I turn an odd orange-ish, and often pink from the sun. My genes suck, and I am downtrodden due to hair loss..........getting close or do I have to go further to fall into a "protected class" to deserve a free shirt?
Sales tip....you'd sell more if you had Sanziana Buruiana from the beautiful people party modeling a wet t-shirt. :-)
For those who missed it, here is the article he's talking about:
https://www.ihatethemedia.com/model-starts-beautiful-people-political-movement
Wish I were on my Photoshop computer, I'll put one on her for you.
she has big fun bags, but gee whiz she is not beautiful. It is always the ones who think they are beautiful but really aren't, who say and do stupid stuff like that. Now, if a certain congresswoman from minnesota were to start a movement like that, I would be on board, or a few of the right-leaning actresses, like oh, I don't know, Angie Harmon, or Mariska Hargitay-hey I am in-but this slav with the enormous chest and a face like she hit every branch on the way down when she fell from the ugly tree-I don't think so.
Now, I really want to know what the chick modeling your shirt looks like-so for the next advert, show the face por favor! I am not totally shallow-but lets face it, no face-it is just a manikin and that is a turn off!
