Matchmaker, matchmaker...


 I discovered you can sell custom matchboxes on Zazzle which are horrendously over priced but you get 50 or so of them. And I am absolutely positive no one will buy them, but I could resist creating a design and trying to sell it on match boxes. And of course Zazzle flags the design for review because they know the millions of people who are going to flock on board and buy match boxes I have designed will get them in deep doo with some intellectual police Nazi. Like anyone owns "A match made in heaven."  I suppose it is because I started out attempting to sell this:


Then I got all paranoid that they were going to go all "Fiddler on the roof" with me and scream I was violating the rights of a 60-year old musical. So I didn't post it and went with the match made in heaven and a National Matchmaker Day design.


I'll be damned if they didn't flag that for review, too. I get all paranoid and think that shit lawyers at Teepublic contacted the shit lawyers at Zazzle and warned them that I am a rabble rouser.  They are matchboxes for Christ sakes. Who even uses matches these days.

I could be because I posted this for National Pickle Day:


I posted it on X with this text: It's National Pickle Day! #NationalPickleDay zazzle.com/bit_of_a_pickl
And a pickle is what you'll be in if you are an independent artist trying to sell on and trying to figure out their terms and conditions.

I did get one like from Donna's Pickle Beer. So I've got that going for me. But don't you like the way I wove that slam on Teepublic in there seamlessly. I don't even think they know what hit them.

But if they do, I have a match for them: My butt and their face.

I'm going to put that on a match box and it will probably fly through with no problem.
